Hi Ines,

Claudio sent his at night my time. I saw it in the morning. So technically it wasn't sent in late. Apologies for the confusion.

We had an applicant that sent his on the 16th and this wasn't included in the list I sent.

Hi Maryam

The list you sent us at first did not include Claudio, plus Farzaneh's email that some applications came after deadline and Renata apologizing about giving a wrong date to Claudio, where is this confusion coming from? Sorry trying to catch up with all those spam emails.

Well-noted Farzaneh. So my understanding from Maryam's email is that Calusio sent his application after the deadline so we should not consider it in the review process which is quite fair in my opinion too.

@ Maryam, was that the only application after deadline? thank you for the clarification.

Sorry, spam issue :(

Dear Maryam
My name is Abakar Oumar Massar, I have been a member of NCUC for a
while. I am very close to all the discussions of the group very
regularly, despite the conditions of my country in the fields of New
technologies is less advanced and prices are expensive to The
population that is why I have been involved for some time to make my
contribution to improve the conditions for the community to benefit.
It is for this reason that I am personally committed and with the
other friends to fight so that things go better through the actions
that have taken place. But at the local level is not enough to know
more, so going to the international level and exchanged with others is
an advantage during ICANN meetings.
For this cause I address my needs for support to attend the ICANN60
meeting, I wish for support such as a plane ticket and accommodation.
In anticipation of a favorable outcome, please receive my most
distinguished greetings.

Dear NCUC Committee,
I am a computer science engineer and doctor in computer networks from the national school of computer science Tunisia. I’m writing to apply for a travel support to participate in the ICANN 60 Public Meeting.
Attending the Annual General Meeting is very interesting to improve my knowledge on how Internet policies are created. In fact, I will get new skills about internet governance. This helps me to discuss public policy issues related to key elements of Internet governance specially that Tunisia focus in this field after the democratic transition challenging.  Thus, I can contribute to capacity building for internet governance in my country in order to adopt a hopeful vision for the future of democracy.
Then, I will exchange information. It is an opportunity to discuss and develop policies for the Internet‘s naming systems with experts.  Finally, I will meet peoples and have new relationships.
 I have not been involved in policy discussions, and I wish be a member on the Cross-Community Working Group on Internet Governance (CCWG-IG). I am volunteer to mentor NCUC mentees and support them. During and after the AGM, I will be present to give ideas and help NCUC members.
 For the support, I need 500$ for the airfare, 1000$hotel, 50$ visa expenses.
I appreciate your consideration of my application. I look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,

Subject: [Ext] NCUC travel support (mentee)

Dear Farzaneh and Maryam,

I’m Kimberly Anastácio and here is my statement regarding the NCUC travel support (as a mentee):

"I am currently working for Coding Rights, a Brazilian female-lead Think-and-Do tank that aims to advance in the enforcement of Human Rights in the digital world by integrating usages and understandings of technology into policy making processes. I became a NCUC member in February and ever since I’ve been trying to understand how the community works and engage whenever possible to provide insights related to the promotion of human rights in the DNS, according to my experience as a civil society activist in Brazil.

Besides, I am a Political Scientist researcher at the University of Brasília, currently doing my master thesis about the Domain Name System in Latin America. I am comparing the governance models of .br (Brazil), .ar (Argentina), .co (Colombia) and .mx (México). Thus, I have huge interest in the interaction between non-commercial users’ interests, ccTLDs and geonames - my main policy interest in ICANN right now altogether with data protection issues (Coding Rights' focus).

I believe attending an ICANN meeting would expand my knowledge about what ICANN does, granting me tools to effectively engage in NCUC (as I am still lost in all the emails I receive in our mailing list, failing to understand how can I be useful) and granting me tools to expand my research at the university.

I do think civil society NGOs should be more active in ICANN - and I am trying to be so. Still, I lack resources to attend ICANN meetings and get to know everyone. I’ve been attending some sessions remotely for the past two public ICANN meetings - making comments and following the discussions - but I know it is quite different to engage online and in person. I have also engaged in the Diversity Subgroup, helping set the draft of the statement on Diversity with six or seven other people. This work is still underway and I want to be more useful in the process.

I have tried the ICANN Fellowship for multiple times without a positive response. Even without attending in presence a former ICANN meeting, I then decided to become a NCUC member and try to help in what I can. Now, therefore, I would like to ask for a full NCUC travel support. I’d be more than willing to spend time with a mentor before and after the Abu Dhabi meeting - as I am already doing something of the type, always asking questions about NCUC to Bruna Santos (a friend that lives in the same city as I do, with whom I’ve already worked organizing Internet Governance outreach events at the University of Brasilia) and Renata Aquino (a woman I got to know in Internet governance meetings in Brazil)."

I kindly ask you to please acknowledge receipt of this email!

Thank you,

Kimberly Anastácio

Dear Sir

   I would like to apply for the NCUC Fellowship for ICANN Abu Dhabi meeting. Find below my statement of interest My C.V.

Thanks

Hago Dafalla
University of Gezira, Sudan

1. Why do you want to attend the Annual General Meeting? Which Working groups or policy discussions you have been involved with and would like to be involved further. If you have not been involved in policy discussions, which policy discussion(s) do you want to get involved with?
I am interested to receive travel support to attend the ICANN meeting in Abu Dhabi . I need this travel support because  I am from developing countries and my country unable to fund me to attend the meeting, also to know the increased and grow in information technology in the world. To be part and engaged in the process as I am a member of NCUC. The last ICANN meeting which I am attended in Costa Rica in 2012.
I am a Member of The Inter Register Transfer Policy Part C working Group, ICANN, Member of Locking of a Domain Name Subject to UDRP Proceedings PDP WG Working Group, ICANN, Member of Advisory Group for Digital Engagement Project, ICANN, Member of  the MESWG Task Force on Arabic Script IDNs, Working Group, ICANN. Member of Multistakeholder Advisory Group (MAG), for Arab Internet Governance Forum (IGF)., 2014 to 2015,
NomCom 2011 and 2012 (Nomination and Election Committee), Member of AfriNic, The African Peering And Interconnection Forum (AfPIF) 2016 Program Committee Member (PC).
15 July 2016: Member of Multistakeholder Advisory Group (MAG) 2016, for North Africa IGF .

Internet Governance is the overall process of Internet management, its security, stability, and development. Currently there is lack of understanding and knowledge amongst most Internet users in the Arab and Africa region about Internet Governance, which impedes their full participation and integration in the discussion as main stakeholders. As a result, engaging Arab Internet users in the regional and global debate about Internet Governance first requires building knowledge on the subject.
After My participation in this ICANN I shall work hard to Find ways and means to build capacity in the area of Internet Governance including training programs, workshops and seminar on the Internet Governance, and raise the level of Internet Governance awareness in Arab and African countries.
Now I am work in Libya as part time for since 2015 and I need to help this country which is very far away from the world in internet networking and lag behind from information technology.
Develop national legal frameworks for the development of confidence in the use of information and communication technology in general and the Internet in particular. And should be invited to work with the specialized regional organizations to develop programs to coordinate understanding of Internet Governance at the Arab and Africa level and understandings with the world. Should also overcome the current observation to make adequate use of the information in the case of privacy.

2. How much support do you need? Indicate airfare, hotel, visa expenses (Remember that we want to support as many mentees as possible, so the less you ask for the more likely you are to receive funding - of course, it also depends on your motivation letter- and we don't offer per diem.)
I need full funds to cover my participation like :airfare, hotel, visa expenses (2000 US$).

3. Make it clear that you will spend time and effort and work with a Buddy/Mentor before, during and after the AGM and will stay engaged or that I will volunteer to mentor NCUC mentees.

Yes I confirmed that I am able to devote an appropriate some level of my time to all activities associated with a Buddy/Mentor before, during and after the AGM and will stay engaged or that I will volunteer to mentor NCUC mentees.
Yes I  want to be a mentor or a mentee.
for more information see my C.V attached.

Subject: [Ext] Application for travel support
Dear NCUC Chair
I am interested in receiving travel support for ICANN 60 in Abu Dhabi.
I feel that it is important for me to attend this meeting for several reasons:
1. The jurisdiction subgroup of WS2 will have produced a report and I need to attend the CCWG-Accountability plenary to reach consensus on it
2. The debate over geonames will reach a critical point, and I am needed to provide our members with mentoring and advice on that issue.
3. The whois/privacy/GDPR discussions will also take important developments and again there are members that need my institutional knowledge.

In addition to facilitating my own participation in the process, there are many newer members of NCUC/NCSG who I could help to mentor and advise.
I have not received travel support for the past two ICANN meetings in Copenhagen and J'burg, or for Helsinki.

Subject: [Ext] Re: [NCUC-DISCUSS] [Travel Support] NCUC Fellowship for ICANN Abu Dhabi meeting
Dear Farzaneh and Maryam,

I am writting you because I saw a fellowship opportunity to attend ICANN 60 with the NCUC. I am computer systems engineer and I am vice-president of Internet Society Venezuelan Chapter and I am the chair of LACNIC Public Policy Forum.

1.- 1. Why do you want to attend the Annual General Meeting? Which Working groups or policy discussions you have been involved with and would like to be involved further. If you have not been involved in policy discussions, which policy discussion(s) do you want to get involved with?

Despite applying a couple of times, unfortunately, I haven’t had the opportunity to be an ICANN Fellow. However, I know, from my reading about ICANN and NCUC/NCSG policy discussions, attend an ICANN meeting is a unique platform to learn and share experience about Internet issues, network with your peers from across the world and get involved in NCUC policy work to represent the Constituency.

I am eager to join the fellowship NCUC program because I want to play a leading role in policy work, and IG ecosystem in my country: Venezuela. I know I can do it best by becoming part of the NCUC Fellowship Family. I am not actively engaged in NCUC’s work yet because I was accepted few time ago but I have the intention to take the challenges to engage key players, especially women, from Latin America are increasing. I want to contribute to improving the engagement. I would be engaging myself, and others in my region, by taking following steps:

Creating learning sessions, workshops and events, on my return home, to share the experiences I gain through my ICANN 60 participation as a Fellow.
Writing a brief post-trip blog post for the NCUC website reflecting on the meeting’s main developments of relevance to NCUC.
Helping create platforms and supporting the existing platforms for Venezuelans to engage in policy and IG issues;
Connecting with the players in my country and beyond to encourage cooperation among stakeholders that would result in enhancing public participation in the policy and IG issues;
Helping empower women-focused organization and encouraging their participation in the IG issues;
Facilitating virtual sessions, in partnership with community members, and the ICANN LAC stakeholder engagement team to further enhance public participation from across Venezuela.

In order to achieve these goals, I need to be given the opportunity to learn from the NCUC team, its leadership, experts from various stakeholder groups and constituencies on how ICANN and NCUC/NCSG works, and how I and others in my network can contribute to help ensure NCUC/NCSG achieves its global objectives through engaging my country.

My sole purpose for participating in the ICANN Fellowship program is to learn knowledge and experience and to contribute. I understand that NCUC is focusing on key issues such as building trust with civil society and individuals, to enhance collaboration across regions and within the ecosystem; expanding the NCUC participation in relevant forums and events where it can further raise awareness about NCUC mission, while encouraging more diversity in participation in its community policy development processes.
NCUC and ICANN60 meeting, therefore, fits my focus as a civil society who would love to contribute to developing and sustaining one global Internet. I am committed to learning more about ways and contributing to enhancing focused engagement in Venezuela.

I want to build on my current knowledge of the ICANN process, and to establish a network of peers and collaborators so we can take committed action towards achieving this goal. I have participated remotely in ICANN sessions, however, now I want to participate in person, so I can enjoy the learning more effectively, as well as to meet with various like minded individuals from my region and other countries to share plans and programs for the future of Internet in my country and region. This will boost not only my moral, but also increase my experience about NCUC and its mission. I understand the ICANN Fellowship meetings are a unique experience, and those who get involved in the ICANN through its Fellowship programming are likely to play a leading role in NCUC process. I also am interested in gaining a more in depth understanding of topics, such as cybersecurity, and other through my participant. I will apply the learning in my work related to policy work and IG up on return home.

I tried, in the past, to create a remote hub to involve students of the University of Los Andes, and I will do so in the future to help engage young girls and students through various remote participation options.

2. How much support do you need? Indicate airfare, hotel, visa expenses (Remember that we want to support as many mentees as possible, so the less you ask for the more likely you are to receive funding - of course, it also depends on your motivation letter- and we don't offer per diem.

I certainly want to participate in the activities, engage in discussions and represent my constituency and my country in a better way. I want to do this by contributing to the discussions, policy making processes, and building capacities and engagement programs across the region. But I am from Venezuela, and currently here, the economic situation makes it difficult for the inhabitants to prepare themselves professionally abroad, there is no Access to foreign exchange; unfortunately many Venezuelans deprive themselves of their dreams despite the merits and honors they obtain for their efforts, having a lesser opportunity for development, diminishing their future goals for lack of economic resources.

Due to the acute humanitarian and economic crisis that today is presented to Venezuelans, I ask for the NCUC fellowship as a young Venezuelan girl, willing to give my best effort and returning this knowledge that go to acquire to my country. Being of paramount importance this type of experience and learning in the labor field, besides the personal principles and the will to get ahead. So I will need full support to attend the meeting (airfare and hotel).

3. Make it clear that you will spend time and effort and work with a Buddy/Mentor before, during and after the AGM and will stay engaged or that you will volunteer to mentor NCUC mentees.

Will be an amazing experience to have a mentor before, during and after the AGM. That could benefit with my engaged with NCUC and maybe I could help like a mentor in the future to others.

I attached my motivation letter and my CV.

Similar to the past two meetings we will have a fellowship program, in which NCUC newcomers or members who want to be more involved will work with  NCUC mentors. If you would like to apply for NCUC fellowship, please send your statement of interest to me, and Maryam Bakoshi <maryam.bakoshi at icann.org<mailto:maryam.bakoshi at icann.org>> by 15 August 2017, and consider the following points when applying:

Note that experienced members can also apply and we encourage such applications. Please indicate in your application if you want to be a mentor or a mentee.

1. Why do you want to attend the Annual General Meeting? Which Working groups or policy discussions you have been involved with and would like to be involved further. If you have not been involved in policy discussions, which policy discussion(s) do you want to get involved with?

2. How much support do you need? Indicate airfare, hotel, visa expenses (Remember that we want to support as many mentees as possible, so the less you ask for the more likely you are to receive funding - of course, it also depends on your motivation letter- and we don't offer per diem.)

3. Make it clear that you will spend time and effort and work with a Buddy/Mentor before, during and after the AGM and will stay engaged or that you will volunteer to mentor NCUC mentees.

Please note that if you do not get engaged satisfactorily with NCUC and ICANN policymaking, your fellowship might be revoked.

Names of successful applicants would be posted by 25 August 2017.

Best

Farzaneh

In Helsinki during ICANN56, my mentees were Isaque Monteiga and Andrew Molivurae from Vanuatu. And during ICANN59 in Johannesburg it was Silas Ngabirano. (Ref: Siranush vardanyan, Janice Lange)
