[NCUC-DISCUSS] Reminder: CROPP - Get funded for a conference and ncuc outreach

Sun Mar 27 17:22:37 CEST 2016

I think this would be a good idea, even something as small as a lunch or social get together on CD. Inreach as much as outreach: we have a number of Finns and Finnush organisations attending their first meeting and it might be nice to do something for them and their colleagues.

Hence, please those members from North America, step forward and suggest a potential conference that is worth going and suitable for NCUC 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.

>>>>  
>>>> 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.
