<div>Yes Arsène..this might end into a big communication issue. Some explanations are still really needed to qualify "indegenous" above all for african french speaking countries where as Arsène said "indigenous"is qualified as "pejorative" Word.</div>

<div>I am failing to understand who is considerd member of an "indiginous community". In Africa, so many groups would consider themselves part of this community but no one knows really based on which grounds they would claim that. Plus it is really a "pejorative"
word that many would even get mad if they are considered/identified that way.<br>
<br>
I will really be glad to see the two who will be selected and learn about their background. Maybe only then that i will be able to know to whom to share the next fellowship for the next ICANN meeting.<br>
<br>
</div>
But overall, this is great that ICANN is willing to reach the unreached folks and bring them into the DNS policy discussion.<br>

<br>
LOS ANGELES – 14 June 2017 – The Internet Corporation for Assigned<br>
Names and Numbers (ICANN) today announced the creation of the Global<br>
Indigenous Ambassador Program. The program establishes two Indigenous<br>
Ambassadors, to be selected from underrepresented indigenous<br>
communities. Through the inclusion of a broader and more diverse base<br>
of knowledgeable constituents, ICANN will be better equipped to<br>
support the next generation of the global Internet community. "This is<br>
an exciting opportunity for two Indigenous Ambassadors to learn about<br>
ICANN and the At-Large community, representing the best interests of<br>
Internet end users," states Loris Taylor, President & CEO, Native<br>
Public Media.<br>
<br>
ICANN is now accepting applications for two Global Indigenous<br>
Ambassadors. Applicants must be members of unserved or underserved<br>
tribal or native communities and meet the ICANN Fellowship Program<br>
criteria. Selected participants will receive travel, hotel, and per<br>
diem for the ICANN60 Conference in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, to<br>
be held 28 October – 3 November 2017.<br>
<br>
The deadline for submitting applications is 6 July 2017.<br>
<br>
Get your application here: Global Indigenous Ambassador Application<br>
Send your completed application to: <a href="mailto:tribal-ambassador-sc@icann.org">
tribal-ambassador-sc@icann.org</a><br>
<br>
ICANN wants participants to learn as much as possible during ICANN60.<br>
As part of the program, Indigenous Ambassadors will:<br>
<br>
Work with an indigenous mentor for the duration of the conference.<br>
Attend the ICANN Newcomer Sunday meeting with a Public Responsibility<br>
Support team representative who will facilitate the session to ensure<br>
inclusion.<br>
Participate in the Fellowship Morning sessions Monday through Thursday<br>
to gain an understanding of and experience with ICANN and its<br>
multi-stakeholder community.<br>
Submit a detailed report within 30 days after the conference –<br>
describing activities and assessing the Ambassador's experience. These<br>
reports help ICANN in evaluating future Fellowship efforts.<br>
<br>
ICANN encourages anyone who is qualified to apply for this special opportunity!<br>
