>> Dear NCUC members
>>
>> A couple of days ago you received an email from Rafik about CROPP. CROPP
>> is a pilot program run by ICANN which supports participation at conferences
>> for the constituency outreach.  5 slots go to ncuc members we have already
>> allocated one.  We now have 4.
>>
>> I would like to give you some ideas as to how you can apply for such
>> funding:
>>
>> Members from Asia Pacific,  you can submit a request to go to AprIGF or
>> any other event.  Your request should concretely say how you would like to
>> do outreach for NCUC.  Your proposal can also include attendance at a
>> workshop but you have to bear in mind that you need to do outreach.
>>
>> Members from Europe especially South East Europe: you can ask for funding
>> to go to SEEDIG to hold a session, target a group for outreach etc.
>>
>> Members from Africa :you can go to Africa Internet Summit.  Remember it
>> is required that you have a plan for outreach and a session or a target
>> group to talk to about NCUC.
>>
>> Members from Latin America, you can go to CIVICUS.
>> http://civicus.org/ICSW/
>>
>> As to North America,  I was wondering if USA IGF would be a good target
>> meeting, however as it will be held in July I don't think we can allocate
>> CROPP to it. Hence, please those members from North America, step forward
>> and suggest a potential conference that is worth going and suitable for
>> NCUC outreach.
>>
>> These are all suggestions,   you can request for CROPP for any other
>> conference in any other region, and then EC decides. This was just to give
>> you a couple of examples.
>>
>> Please bear in mind that we need proposals for outreach, the intention to
>> attend a conference is not enough justification.
>>
>> Look forward to your proposals.

>> Subject: [NCUC-DISCUSS] [Announcement] Call for CROPP proposals
>>
>> Dear NCUC members,
>>
>> The Community Regional Outreach Pilot Program (CROPP)
>> <https://community.icann.org/display/croppfy16/Community+Regional+Outreach+Pilot+Program+%28CROPP%29-FY16+Home>
>>  allocates each constituency with funds for five travel slots to attend
>> a meeting/event. As the program name says, support is for outreach. We had
>> five slots for 2016; one has already been allocated to an NCUC member to
>> attend CPDP http://www.cpdpconferences.org/ in Brussels.
>>
>> At the moment we have four opportunities for funding to attend
>> conferences/events and do NCUC outreach.
>>
>> You are invited to send us proposals to get funded to attend a conference
>> that is related to Internet policy/governance and ICANN and civil society
>> work, and give us a concrete action plan on how you will do outreach for
>> NCUC. For example, this might be organizing a short 30 minute session at
>> the conference or if possible a side event. The deadline for submitting
>> CROPP requests  is March 15. If the EC does not receive enough or
>> satisfactory proposals the deadline will be extended.
>>
>> Priority will go to  regions that have not been allocated CROPP.
>> Especially Africa, Asia-Pacific, South East Europe and Central Asia.
>> However the main priority is the quality of the proposal and how you will
>> carry out outreach.
>>
>> Please note that the CROPP request should be received at least 8 weeks
>> prior to the conference or the event. If the event you are considering is
>> scheduled to be held in less than eight weeks from the date of receipt of
>> application, we might have difficulties accepting and processing the
>> request. Proposals for the target events should be within the timeframe
>> of 2016 ICANN Fiscal Year, that is, the events should happen before
>> 30th, June, 2016.
>>
>> The eligibility criteria:
>> 1. Concrete outreach plan with a targeted audience.
>> 2. Conferences that are related to ICANN and NCUC mission - They do not
>> have to be Internet related but can be related to for example transparency
>> of corporations or bottom up policy making. The relation to ICANN and NCUC
>> mission should be justified.
>>
>> Participants are required to write a blogpost about the conference, and
>> to report on their outreach to the NCUC Executive Committee, giving any
>> leads to organizations and individuals who showed interest to join NCUC.
>>
>> Best Regards,
>>
>> Rafik
