[DCAD] Announcing IGF-DCAD 2025 Mentor

[Gunela Astbrink]

Thank you very much for your well wishes. I am very pleased to be 
selected as a Mentor for the IGF-DCAD Fellows this year. It certainly 
will build on my positive Mentoring experience in 2023. I look forward 
to contributing to the Fellowship Committee and to supporting and 
encouraging Fellows at the IGF.

I also wanted to share that I was honored to be selected as a member of 
the Multistakeholder Advisory Group (MAG) for this year's IGF.

One of the key roles of a MAG member is to advise and help organise this 
year's event. I have been raising accessibility regularly.  This is an 
important time for the IGF in its 20th year in many ways, one of them 
being decisions to be made about renewing IGF's mandate.

Kind regards,
Gunela Astbrink
