[NCUC-DISCUSS] [Ncuc-eur] Update from your NCUC Executive Coordinator

[Ayden Férdeline]

Thanks for this, Farzi. I really appreciate these periodic updates and learning
about what the EC considers to be operational/strategic priorities for the
months ahead. I would like to hear a bit more about what the NCUC will be taking
forward to Guadalajara, provided the proposed workshop(s) are approved. I found
one of the proposals on the IGF website (the proposal, “the power of the
noncommercial users on the Internet”) but wasn't able to locate the second. I
like the gist of the first - is multistakeholderism useful or does it instead
just allow lobbyists to be legislators? - and will be interested to see how it
evolves between now and December. On this note; was the budget request for NCUC
attendance at the IGF approved?
Oh, and re: WSIS in Geneva. Thank you to Adam and the EC for your support and
for making this session possible. I will submit a report on this very soon, and
will share a transcript of the session if one becomes available.
Wishing you all a pleasant journey to Helsinki,
Ayden

Hi all ,
Here is another update from Brussels. EuroDIG is being held here. If you don't
know what EuroDIG is, ask me or go to their website: http://www.eurodig.org/ . I was funded to come here by EuroDIG Secretariat for doing some consultancy
work during the meeting, mainly coordinating remote participation. We have
tentatively scheduled an outreach (short announcement) with Tatiana Tropina and
I which will take place on Thursday at the end of the sessions. Ayden has kindly
shared a doodle for the NCUC and NCSG participants, here it is http://doodle.com/poll/h7ssy95fya35wchn . If you are here, fill in the doodle, we can have coffee at a coffee break. Or
attend our outreach announcement which will be very short on Thursday. I will
announce that soon.
We have submitted two workshop proposals to IGF to be considered. Due to time
constraint we could not consult with the community but you are free to comment
on them if they get accepted. Ayden also led a workshop at WSIS, which we supported his travel request.
We are going to make an announcement for CROPP proposals for FY17, so stay
tuned.
To prepare for Helsiniki, we need to sign up for various themes of WS2 of
accountability, if you are interested, the themes are in the google doc, you
need to sign up for the subject you are interested in at: 
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Iw5yn9GRk8RcnTJzclwB-JuSe3B6JugEj_0oGOCseqU/edit?usp=sharing . If you are new, you need to also put in your email address.
As most of you know, Helsinki meeting is a policy meeting. If you are interested
in what policies you can engage with you should take part. The Sunday before the
official meeting is accountability day , working on work stream two issues.
We did not receive travel funding requests from Europe for Helsinki and no one
received funding from NCUC to travel to Helsinki in the end.
Let me know if you need more information.
