[NCUC-EC] 答复: 转发: Call for Candidates of ICANN Mentor Pilot Program

Mon Jan 25 15:45:54 CET 2016

Dear Farz, EC members,

For the Mentor, I am more inclined to select Kathy. She is so experienced and active in the ICANN community to be a Mentor. She is very nice to mentor. Gald she has stepped up for the position.

I have much difficulty in selecting one Mentee.
After reviewing the 9 applications,  I can see that:
1. There are Benjamin and James Gitau, who have been in NCUC for quite a while. After such a long time, what I could learn is that they did not find their way to go, not actually trying to get much involved in ICANN. So shall we do more to engage them?
2. Then the remaining 7 applicants are newbies.
After reviewing their aplications, my initial choices focus on Soumya(from India), Ayden(from UK) and Sana(from Pakistan).

All of them have expressed wish to be involved with ICANN. However, I learnt from Soumya's application that she has stronger wish to learn, sustained interest to do some voluntary work in the ICANN community.  Shall we award her an opportunity?

@Farz, actually when I drafted my ideas about the selection criteria, I have a thought that had been kept in my mind, which is that, in the spirit of the Mentor Pilot Program, ICANN aims to seek volunteers who has strong wish to learn, to be engaged and has sustained interest to do work for ICANN as well as NCUC. I think we all agree to this. Then my second thought is that, NCUC has long been a constituency characteristic of diversity, so how could we represent diversity? One effective way is to select representatives or volunters in terms of geographical diversity and gender. Recall that NCUC is a much diversified constituecy in ICANN. You could see that far beyond the ICANN community. I think Kathy, as the co-founder, would also agree to this.  So, let's keep diveristy as a preferred priority but not an absolute privilege.

So, expect your views, Rafik, Milton, Joao, Grace.
Please do help us to select.
Currently, we are behind the deadline. Hopefully we could get it done today.

Best
Peter

Thanks for this Peter.

As to the mentor I support Kathy Kleiman's application. Kathy is the co-founder of NCUC and she has been very effective in policy making in ICANN.

As to the mentee, I am quite happy we received 9 applications and such enthusiasm. I am split between Sumya, enthusiastic young lady from India and Ayden, male from Europe who is a member of LGBT community and a member of youth coalition on IG.

I am sorry I didn't point this out before you issued the call. People in WEOG cannot benefit from  fellowship program at ICANN as only people from developing countries can apply. Considering this I am thinking whether we should prioritized developing countries in this program. We can discuss this later. But these are the two candidates that I think their participation will be worthwhile. Looking forward to other EC members views. You can either support one of the candidates I named or suggest other names.

Dear EC members,

Until now, we received 3 formal applications for the Mentor :

1. Dr. Tatiana Tropina, Germany
2. Remmy Nweke, Africa
3. Kathy Kleiman, USA

we received 3 formal applications for the Mentee

1. Soumya Iyer, female, a developing country
2. Patrick Lenihan, Canada
3. Isaque Joaquim, Mozanmbique
4. Ayden Fabien Férdeline, UK
5.  Benjamin Akinmoyeje, Africa
6. Sana Ali (female), Canada
7. Melaku Girma, Ethopia
8. James Njoroge Gitau, Kenya
9. Renata Aquino Ribeiro, Brazil

Also, I agree with Milton. We did receive an overdue notification from ICANN.

It seems that Milton has thoughts regarding considering to apply to serve as the Mentor.

So, there could be 4 applications for the Mentor if we count him.

Ladies and Gentlemen EC members, please be noted some context requirments in the open call:

1. There is no formal format set for reponses to the call, attached please find the email responses from each applicant, so the EC could evaluate their wish to participate in the program solely according to their response.

2. For the sake of geographical diversity,  newbies from Africa, MENA region or the Latin America may be prefrred.

3. For the sake of gender diversity, in case there are more applications, ladies are prefrred.

Let's start the discussion.  Please state your choice for the Mentor and the Mentee, and demonstrate your views and rationale to support the Mentor and the Mentee.

BTW, if Tapani could understand, we may have to skip a little behind the 12:00 UTC deadline.

Anyway, it is expected that we may have a final result not very late today.

If there is any problem, please do not hesitate to correct me.

Thank you so much.

Best Regards

Peter

主题: [NCUC-DISCUSS] Call for Candidates of ICANN Mentor Pilot Program

Dear NCUCers,

ICANN is doing a Mentor Pilot Program, which will be starting in Marrakesh.

Now NCUC has to call for TWO candidates within the Constituency, one Mentor and one Mentee, i.e. 1 vs 1.

ICANN would provide travel support for selected candidates of the Program for the Marrakesh meeting.

Please find the attached introduction document of the Mentor Pilot Program.

The Program aims to seek those who have strong wish to learn and get involved with ICANN as soon as possible and those who have strong wish to coach, educate.

Requirements:

1. Time (for both the Mentor and Mentee)

Under the instructions of the ICANN staff, each week both the Mentor and Mentee should allocate one or two hours meeting online in their agreed-upon timeframe.
So candidates must ensure they have time.

2. Good Knowledge about ICANN (for the Mentor only)

According to the Mentor Pilot Program, we need one Mentor, who is an ICANN  veteran.  We need one who has strong wish to educate and mentor new guys and could come up with an idea of coaching, for instance, a specific area or subject.

3. Without Knowledge about ICANN  (for the Mentee only)

Newbies, unfamiliar with ICANN, are welcome. We need him/her to be engaged with enthusiam and sustained interest about ICANN.

4. Diversity (for the Mentor)

In terms of diversity, Mentee candidates from Africa, MEMA region or the Latin region are preferred. In case, there are more candidates, ladies are preferred.

5. A Brief Report (for the Mentor only)

We need the Mentor to draft a brief coaching report which could tell us what the Mentor has done for coaching the Mentee. It could be brief.

6. The final decision regarding selection of the Mentor and Mentee candidates rests upon the EC.

When the EC makes the final selection, it would deliver its rationale.

ICANN may provide travel support for Mentors and Mentees  for future meetings.

As time is a little bit urgent, please respond by 20:00 UTC, Monday, 24th, Jan, 2016.

The Executive Committee will be announcing the selection results by 12:00 UTC,  Monday, 25th, Jan, 2016 and then deliver the results to ICANN staff.

Best Regards

Zuan/Peter

NCUC-EC Asia/the Pacific Representative
