[NCUC-EC] Travel support to Copenhagen - EC to approve text by Tuesday next week

[Renata Aquino Ribeiro]

Hi

"Lightweight" might be something that opens up controversy.
It just keeps coming back to my mind an experience I had in trying to
present fellow mentees to working groups and someone coming up to me
and saying that I was "putting on them to too much". Of course, I
disagreed to this but I think we may want to give a few more
indications on to up to where this workload may lead to?
I think just a little bit more specification

The mentoring requirement is lightweight, basically involves
indicating activities which can be done in partnership, such as
getting engaged in a working group or contributing to a public
comment.

Other than that, all is fine by me.
