[NCUC-DISCUSS] [Npoc-discuss] Meeting Invitation | NCUC Webinar | Monday, 18 May 2026 at 14:30 UTC

[Wisdom Donkor]

Dear Members,

I am adding my voice to encourage everyone to kindly help share and
circulate this upcoming quarterly webinar by the NCUC within your networks
and communities to help us reach a wider Internet and digital policy
audience, especially civil society, the technical community, academia,
youth groups, and non-commercial stakeholders. The webinar on “Free and
Open Source Software (FOSS) Advocacy and Non-Commercial Interest in the
Internet” presents an important opportunity to discuss the intersection of
FOSS, Internet governance, open standards, DNS policy, and the protection
of non-commercial interests online.

Your support in amplifying this session will be highly appreciated and will
help broaden participation and engagement across the global Internet
community. Thank you all for your continued support and collaboration.
