Hi everyone,
My name is Michael Oghia. I'm a long-time RIPE community member, and currently the Director of Communications & External Relations at the Sustainable Digital Infrastructure Alliance (SDIA <https://sdialliance.org>) – a non-profit network of more than 65 organisations working to catalyse the transition to a sustainable digital economy.
Mirjam recently encouraged me to join this WG given the recent discussion about the NCC's (now paused) cloud plans. She mentioned that the topic of a good European alternative came up in the discussion, which is why I'm eager to share my latest RIPE Labs post with you all since it's relevant.
Over the summer, SDIA published a three-part series introducing our manifesto for a sustainable European cloud, one that’s open-source, fair, and creates economic opportunities for all. Such digital infrastructure will reflect European values, and provide a blueprint that others around the world can draw inspiration from to further develop their own digital economies.
The post, published today, provides a summary of each part, an invitation to read them, and a call to action to help us make our vision a reality. You can read it at:

In case anyone would like to discuss further, please don't hesitate to reach out.
Best, -Michael __________________ Director of Communications & External Relations Sustainable Digital Infrastructure Alliance (SDIA <https://sdialliance.org/>) ICT sustainability advocate | IRPC <https://internetrightsandprinciples.org/>Steering Committee member Belgrade, Serbia (UTC+2) | Twitter <https://www.twitter.com/MikeOghia> | LinkedIn <https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikeoghia><https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikeoghia>
