Why do you want to serve on the Board?

I am a democracy and human rights activist by passion, lawyer by education and humanitarian by spirit; I think I have so much to offer to humankind. Serving on the board of the WYMD provides a readily available action ground to translate into action my potential.

What skills can you contribute to the leadership and objectives of the network?

I believe donation and not duration is what is relevant to contribution that one has made or can make.
Problem solving skills and intervention accessible at the international level and in some respect national level are what I will bring to the leadership of the network. This is rooted in my knowledge and foundation in law and interest in the international democratization process.

What do you envision for the future of the WYMD?

A network that all who share its values will have and feel the true sense of solidarity; not only in time of trouble where assistance/intervention is needed but also in time of action to advise the thoughts and actions of members/activists in deteriorating situations.
