Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
<br>
It’s time to receive candidates for sponsored travellers at ICANN63.<br>
<br>
<br>
This is a call for NCSG supported travellers - NCUC, NPOC and NCSG<br>
independent members are eligible.<br>
<br>
<br>
The budget is for 2 attendees who wish to be more involved with<br>
activities of the stakeholder group, as you can see in the travel<br>
policy (<a href="https://www.ncuc.org/get-involved/travel-policy/" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.ncuc.org/get-involved/travel-policy/</a>) .<br>
<br>
<br>
The next meeting is in Barcelona - Spain, and we ask you to be ready<br>
to be mindful of visa requirements and prepare all your documentation<br>
to attend.<br>
<br>
<br>
Meeting dates: 20-25 October 2018<br>
<br>
<br>
The selected candidate should participate in all meeting days<br>
<br>
<br>
This opportunity offers a budget of 2000 USD maximum per traveller.<br>
Funds will be reimbursed to you upon conclusion of your trip and<br>
delivery of a report (which may be published as a blog post) and<br>
relevant receipts.<br>
<br>
<br>
Consider the following points in your statement.<br>
<br>
1. Why do you want to attend the meeting? Which Working groups or<br>
policy discussions you have been involved with and would like to be<br>
involved further. If you have not been involved in policy discussions,<br>
which policy discussion(s) will get involved with? (please provide<br>
links to your mailing list contributions and your record of attendance<br>
in WG meetings)<br>
<br>
2. How much support do you need? Indicate airfare, hotel, visa<br>
expenses (Remember that we want to support as many mentees as<br>
possible, so the less you ask for the more likely you are to receive<br>
funding - of course, it also depends on your motivation letter- and we<br>
don't offer per diem.)<br>
<br>
3. How much time, effort and work will you spend studying policy<br>
topics before, during and after the meeting? And will you stay engaged<br>
or volunteer to mentor future NCSG members? If you have been a part of<br>
NCUC Buddy Pilot program or plan to participate in this or other<br>
training programs within NCSG, NCUC or NPOC please mention.<br>
<br>
Please note that if you do not get engaged satisfactorily with NCSG<br>
and ICANN policymaking, your fellowship might be revoked.<br>
<br>
Names of successful applicants would be posted in NCSG main list<br>
