[NCUC-DISCUSS] [Call for ICANN61 participants] NCUC Policy Course - Onsite Slots - no funding

[Renata Aquino Ribeiro]

Dear members,


We are opening up a call for (up until) 4 members who would like to
participate onsite to the NCUC Policy Course that will take place
during ICANN61.


The course main goal is to upskill our participants already engaged in
NCUC so that they can share their knowledge in the future working
collaboratively with less engaged members .


It is a mandatory for participants to stay for the whole duration of
the course, including working coffee breaks and lunches, as this is an
immersive experience with limited places available.


The NCUC Policy Course does not provide financial support for travel
to Puerto Rico, so the present opportunity is directed to NCUC members
who will already be attending ICANN61.


Remote or online participation will be available for all members.


Course dates and times

Day 2 (11 March, 0830 – 1500)

Day 3 (12 March, 1215 – 1315): Working lunch
