[NCUC-EC] CROPP - requirement and announcement

[farzaneh badii]

Dear EC members,

Please read and comment, planning to send this tomorrow.

I have drafted the CROPP requirement and announcement for the NCUC members.


Please comment on

1. Shall CROPP be allocated to conferences specific to Internet related
issues or it can be anything as long as the proponents can justify that its
work is related to NCUC mission.

2. I think we should prioritize requests for conferences and regions that
have not been allocated CROPP so far.Please state your objections if you
disagree.

3. Please add to eligibility criteria as you see appropriate .




Dear NCUC members

The Community Regional Outreach Pilot Program (CROPP)
<https://community.icann.org/display/croppfy16/Community+Regional+Outreach+Pilot+Program+%28CROPP%29-FY16+Home>
 allocates each stakeholder group with funds for five travel slots to
attend a meeting/event. As the program names says, support is for outreach.
We have five slots for 2016; one has already been allocated to an NCUC
member to attend CPDPhttp://www.cpdpconferences.org/ in Brussels.

At the moment we have four opportunities for funding to attend
conferences/events and do NCUC outreach.

You are invited to send us proposals to get funded to attend a conference
that is related to Internet policy/governance and ICANN and civil society
work, and give us a concrete action plan on how you will do outreach for
NCUC. For example, this might be organizing a short 30 minute session at
the conference or if possible a side event. The deadline is March 1. If the
EC does not receive enough or satisfactory proposals the deadline will be
extended.

Priority will go to  regions that have not been allocated CROPP. Especially
Africa, Asia-Pacific, South East Europe and Central Asia. However the main
priority is the quality of the proposal and how you will carry out
outreach.

The eligibility criteria:

1. Concrete outreach plan with a targeted audience

2. Conferences that are related to ICANN and NCUC mission - They do not
have to be Internet related but can be related to for example transparency
of corporations or bottom up policy making. The relation to ICANN and NCUC
mission should be justified.

Participants are required to write a blogpost on a relevant topic to NCUC
and the conference or a report on how they carried out outreach and
Participants
are required to write a blogpost about the conference, and to report on
their outreach, giving any leads to organizations and individuals who
showed interest to join NCUC.


Best
