[NCUC-DISCUSS] [Info] Call for application for NCUC travel support to ICANN meeting in Hyderabad

[Rafik Dammak]

Dear NCUC members,

ICANN 57  will be held in Hyderabad, India from 3 to 9 November 2016.
NCUC members can apply to receive funding to attend the meeting. The
travel dates
can be ideally from 2  to 10 November.

The budget for each meeting for travel support is the maximum
of  $4,000. $4,000 is to be divided amongst the participants who are chosen
to receive the support, i.e. it is not allocated per person.

Covered travel expenses may include conference-related airfare, visas or
related fees, lodging, and airport taxis. If the actual cost of these items
is greater than $2,000 the member will be responsible for the
difference. NCUC cannot provide a per diem or cover any other expenses.

Selected travelers must make their own travel, accommodation,visa, and
related arrangements and be reimbursed after the trip. NCUC cannot provide
funds in advance of the meeting, or any administrative support.

The recipients of NCUC travel support would be expected to send their blog
posts within 4 weeks from the closure of ICANN meeting. According to the
NCUC Travel support Policy, supported travelers could only be reimbursed
once they have delivered meeting reports or blog posts.

Interested members should read carefully the terms and conditions of
the policy available at
http://www.ncuc.org/participate/ncuc-travel-support/ and
send a proposal as to why they should receive funding to attend this ICANN
meeting.
They should also indicate the approximate amount of travel funding.
Requests can be sent both for full funding and partial funding.As we want
to support as many attendees as we can, partial funding requests will be
given priority.

The deadline for application is 21 August 2016.

Please apply by replying to  Maryam (maryam.bakoshi at icann.org) and myself (
rafik.dammak at gmail.com).


Best Regards,

Rafik Dammak

NCUC Chair
