>>> 1.      Trip Allocations (4 days, 3 nights maximum):
>>>
>>> a.      Five (5) individual regional trips which may include one (1) out
>>> of region trip if necessary, allocated to GNSO Constituencies including:

>>>
>>> 2.      Funded Costs/Expenses:
>>>
>>> Includes transportation (economy class), lodging, and per diem (4 days,
>>> 3 nights maximum)
>>>
>>> 3.      Visa Fees & Registration Fees:
>>>
>>> Travellers will be reimbursed for visa fees (up to $200 USD) and for
>>> conference registration fees where applicable (up to $800 USD)
>>>
>>> 4.      Booking:
>>>
>>> All travel booked via ICANN Constituency Travel to ensure consistency,
>>> proper accounting, recordation, and tracking against budget.
>>>
>>> General Procedures
>>>
>>> •       All trips and outreach activities must be completed before the
>>> end of ICANN's 2018 fiscal year. Traveling participants must have returned
>>> to their originating destination on or before 30 June 2018.
>>>
>>> •       Minimum timeframes: An individual trip must be approved within
>>> the participant's organization/structure, including coordination with the
>>> applicable regional Stakeholder Engagement V.P. team a minimum of 6-weeks
>>> prior to the proposed travel date. This 6-week period is the absolute
>>> minimum time and should not be considered a "best practice". Notice and
>>> planning with regional teams should take place as early as possible.
>>>
>>> •       Travel may not be booked individually or through the event
>>> organizers. ICANN's Constituency Travel department will manage all travel
>>> booking and ensure that any financial outlays are optimized to the maximum
>>> extent possible.
>>>
>>> •       A Trip Assessment must be completed for each outreach activity
>>> attended (within 3 weeks of returning). The assessment should clearly and
>>> specifically describe if/how the original purpose(s) and outcome(s) were
>>> realized as well as details of the event itself (who, what, where, when,
>>> and why).
>>>
>>> •       Trips must originate and conclude within the same region and
>>> should, wherever practicable, be taken by someone working in or proximate
>>> to that territory. GNSO Constituencies may attend one out of region trip
>>> per fiscal year within the five trip allocations.
>>>
>>> •       It will not be possible to support trip "compounding" or
>>> "splitting" of expenses or any other strategy with a goal of increasing the
>>> number of individual trips assigned to an organization. ICANN appreciates
>>> all reasonable efforts on the part of participants to minimize expenses;
>>> however, to properly manage this unique resource, each individual trip
>>> stands on its own and will require separate authorization and tracking.
>>>
>>> Submission form
>>>
>>> •       All of those who wish  to submit a proposal for the CROP must
>>> fill the following form:
>>>
>>> Name of Event
>>>
>>> Date
>>>
>>> How you plan to outreach for NCUC at the event?
>>>
>>> Why you think your application should be considered?
>>>
>>> •       The timeline for submitting requests is critical and has to be
>>> submitted to us at least two months before the event. If you would like to
>>> suggest an event, please consider this timeline.
