Elizabeth Oluoch – Do Canto

Since joining the Internet Society in 2008, I have held various policy roles. I am the Director of International Institutions and Relations within the External Engagement team, where I assist in the development and execution of strategies to expand and enhance the organization’s engagement in international and intergovernmental institutions. I have led numerous engagement and advocacy efforts in support of the organization's mission at the ITU and the United Nations.

Working with regional vice presidents and project leads, I also cultivate partnerships and relationships to maximize opportunities to advance the organization’s strategic priorities.

Prior to joining the Internet Society, I was a donor tracker in the Resource Development Division at the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation (CBCF), where I supported fundraising initiatives and events alongside Congressional Black Caucus Members, leaders of major Fortune 500 corporations and foundations, the CBCF Board, and other nonprofit organizations.
 
I hold a Masters in Public Policy from the American University, Washington, D.C. I have lived in Eastern and Southern Africa and in Europe. I am fluent in Luo, an ethic language in Kenya.
