I think one of the reasons is that covering costs of one person that can come up to 2000 usd prevents others to attend so if their presence is not very well justified then it doesn't make sense. So for future application they might consider to ask for partial funding.

Due to this and the fact that the meeting is going to be held in Africa, I was more favorable to people in that region however I don't think region has to be the absolute factor but one of the factors for justifying funding.
> The other reason is that they have not been able to justify their strong interest in getting involved. Being active in IG is good but not enough. They can reach out to us to get to know various working groups, how to get involved with them and how to make effective contribution to NCUC 's work in Icann.

> My impression is that Tatiana, Ayden and Renata are all very active and need to be encouraged and rewarded with some support, but do not require the full $2000. In Renata’s case, if indeed she can’t come if we don’t provide the full, requested $938, then I would support exceeding the budget by $438 to make it possible. Because she seems to be someone who will become a very strong contributor.

However, I see a bit more promise in the statements and activity of James and Sonigitu. So I went with them. If $1000 is not enough to bring James Gitau to the meeting, we could increase the allocations to Renata and Sonigitu as needed.

If we agree to go with these individuals, then I think we still have funds to support one more person (perhaps partially). I think that person should be from Africa. I am not familiar with other candidates from Africa and their work in NCUC but I know Benjamin from Nigeria, he was an ICANN fellow with me.
