[NCUC-DISCUSS] WBC Global policy support pilot - is NCUC participating in it?

[Mueller, Milton L]

Yes, we did reject it. And we should continue to reject it. The day we are incapable of drafting our own policy statements and developing our own positions is the day we should declare ourselves intellectually bankrupt and dissolve the constituency, or turn it over to someone who can actually represent the constituency rather than have ICANN staff do it.

Didn't we reject this option when it was presented to us?  Unfortunately

Hi,

Whatever happened to that ICANN pilot programme which was to offer selected constituencies and stakeholder groups assistance with policy research and document drafting? I remember being told in Helsinki its launch was imminent, and had an excellent discussion with a consultant from WBC Global about it. Are there any updates?

Thanks,
