<div>Rafik welcome back. </div>
<div>I think it should be framed as a maximum of 4K and not as 2 people. There are people who can get there for $200 and hotel for $600<span><br>

<p dir="ltr">Hi,</p>
<p dir="ltr">Thanks for the clarification,<br>
We can be creative with the 4000 depending on the applications we get e.g. giving enough for airfare or hotel etc and spreading over more than 2 persons . We can expand a little if really needed.

<div dir="ltr">Hi Rafik
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I tried not to draft it as such that it sounds preference goes to those people, which was not my intention. But I get rid of it all together anyway. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>And I did not suggest to expand the budget. I was presuming that we have upto 4000 USD to fund people to go to Morrocco. Or are we prioritizing two persons over the amount? I mean are we saying only 2 persons will go even if it is under 4000 USD and we
won't take on more? </div>

<p dir="ltr">Hi,</p>
<p dir="ltr">I am for allocating up to 2 people only in order to keep the budget. Cautiously I would prefer working on fund seeking (or other alternative) before expanding the allocated amount per meeting.<br>
So 2 x 2000$ for this call. Also as matter of fairness, the call should be for everyone not just mentee-mentor or giving then preference.
</p>
<p dir="ltr">For mentorship program, I would like to discuss more in depth since I have some reservations</p>

<div>We have to issue the call for travel support for Morrocco tomorrow the latest. We are behind the 2 months notice. As well as considering new applications I think we can choose from the mentees that applied and other experienced people and perhaps give
them a light mentor, mentees role. Let me know if you agree. </div>
<div>Also as we can support two candidates upto 2000 USD I think we should support more candidates if we have enough money. </div>

<div>Title: Get funded to go to ICANN meeting in Morrocco </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>NCUC can support active or members who would like to become more active at NCUC and get involved with various working groups to go to Morrocco. As the ICANN mentorship program was received very well, the applicants for the pilot mentorship program will
be considered as well and the funded NCUC members might be given a mentor-mentee role.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please send in your request to us by 2 February.Information about travel support and its requirements can be found here. </div>
