[NCUC-EC] FW: Proposal for travel support for trip to the INternational working group on data protection in telecommunications in Oslo April 2016

[farzaneh badii]

Hi

Which budget are we going to use to allocate funding to Stephanie?  I agree
with Rafik that it should be outcome oriented. As well as a blogpost as
Milton suggested I think a report to"the EC about new membership
possibilities" or "opportunities/strategies for increasing our policy
influence on this issue within ICANN", would be nice. But I would like to
see a plan from Stephanie on how she is going to raise awareness about our
work and who she potentially has in mind to approach and discuss NCUC with.

Sometimes participants ( and I dont mean Stephanie in specific here) just
go to conferences with no mention of NCUC - I think if they are funded by
us they have an obligation to at least talk about NCUC  and our work and
show us results. ( whatever that maybe)

If this is not funding that requires her to do outreach for NCUC, then what
is the objective of funding her travel?

I also am skeptical about the effectiveness of participation at the same
conference every year which most of the times has the same group of
participants . I also don't know what the objective is ....
