> LOS ANGELES – 14 June 2017 – The Internet Corporation for Assigned
> Names and Numbers (ICANN) today announced the creation of the Global
> Indigenous Ambassador Program. The program establishes two Indigenous
> Ambassadors, to be selected from underrepresented indigenous
> communities. Through the inclusion of a broader and more diverse base
> of knowledgeable constituents, ICANN will be better equipped to
> support the next generation of the global Internet community. "This is
> an exciting opportunity for two Indigenous Ambassadors to learn about
> ICANN and the At-Large community, representing the best interests of
> Internet end users," states Loris Taylor, President & CEO, Native
> Public Media.
>
> ICANN is now accepting applications for two Global Indigenous
> Ambassadors. Applicants must be members of unserved or underserved
> tribal or native communities and meet the ICANN Fellowship Program
> criteria. Selected participants will receive travel, hotel, and per
> diem for the ICANN60 Conference in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, to
> be held 28 October – 3 November 2017.
>
> The deadline for submitting applications is 6 July 2017.
>
> Get your application here: Global Indigenous Ambassador Application
> Send your completed application to: tribal-ambassador-sc at icann.org
>
> ICANN wants participants to learn as much as possible during ICANN60.
> As part of the program, Indigenous Ambassadors will:
>
> Work with an indigenous mentor for the duration of the conference.
> Attend the ICANN Newcomer Sunday meeting with a Public Responsibility
> Support team representative who will facilitate the session to ensure
> inclusion.
> Participate in the Fellowship Morning sessions Monday through Thursday
> to gain an understanding of and experience with ICANN and its
> multi-stakeholder community.
> Submit a detailed report within 30 days after the conference –
> describing activities and assessing the Ambassador's experience. These
> reports help ICANN in evaluating future Fellowship efforts.
>
> ICANN encourages anyone who is qualified to apply for this special
> opportunity!
