[NCUC-DISCUSS] Approved ABRs - Comms and Training to Enhance Civil Society Advocacy at ICANN

[Bruna Martins dos Santos]

Dear NCUC,

Hope you are doing well!

My email comes with some good news today, at the  beginning of the year
NCUC submitted two additional Budget Requests and we managed to get both
approved. The subject of both ABRs was (a) the continuation of our comms
support - for printed materials, translations, stickers, etc; and (b)
Request for a Training to Enhance Civil Society Advocacy at ICANN.

The details to the second one you can read below, as well as the conditions
under which its been approved.

Support)ICANN Org supports the NCUC’s objective of enhancing civil society
advocacy at ICANN; however, the request as phrased does not include
specific details on the issues and topics such trainingis intended to
address. Partial approval is conditioned on: (1) the training being made
available and open to all interested civil society groups represented in
the community (e.g. the Not-for-Profit Operational Concerns (NPOC)
constituency and At Large community structures); (2) selection of the final
list of topics to be based on input from all such groups who indicate
interest; and (3) the training being conducted online only (e.g. via
webinar followed by creation of amore evergreen ICANN Learn course on Civil
Society Participation at ICANN). *
*To the extent that some of NCUC’s specific issues or challenges are not
covered by the training but are nevertheless of urgent importance, NCUC is
encouraged to consult with the Senior Vice President for Policy Development
Support to determine how these concerns can be addressed. *
