<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt">For FY19, US$50,000 was allocated to the final FY19 Budget for CROP. The Board made this decision on the recommendation of ICANN organization, based on community consultations and public comments
on the Draft FY19 Operating Plan & Budget as well as further consideration about how to provide support to community outreach efforts while remaining within appropriate budget limits.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt">As part of this process, staff was directed to review current guidelines and develop improved, additional criteria. To ensure consistency with other community travel and outreach requests administered
under all ICANN programs, the final criteria balances the program goals with the need to ensure cost-effectiveness.
