We need to start building a farm team. And as we collectively continue to look forward, I urge all of us to think deeply about how we build the capacity in LACRALO for our global interactions, for others to come forward and represent. You only need to refer the conversations happening at the IANA Coordination Transition WG to see the risks.

I am absolutely sure we need broader and deeper engagements. From a Caribbean perspective, we have struggled to bring in more voices; the fellowship recommendations, the attempts to build ALS are just 2 means. But we labour against certain realities. And we know what we do is hard work. So while we remain hopeful, we are concerned about the numbers stepping forward - and the circumstances - for representation.

Some of us are tiring.

Here and now, we must begin to consciously address the diversity question and the ways we have to make it real. For no disrespect to the hard work of all volunteers, we are required not only to act but also look to outsiders that LACRALO is indeed representative.

Kind regards, -Carlton
