[NCUC-EC] Fwd: Application for travel support and mentee program

[Renata Aquino Ribeiro]

Dear EC

Apologies this application for ICANN61 Travel Support as NCUC mentee
appears to not have integrated the package

It arrived 3h before closure of deadline

Judgement of all applications was due yesterday

I will give EC more 48h in case you want to change your vote

Once more, sorry about that

We'll guide mentees to keep subject of email next time to prevent this from
happening

> I have been following the NCUC for a while now and oarticipating in the

> Unfortunately the fares for airfare seems to be a little high from Nairobi

> you will volunteer to mentor NCUC mentees.*

> I would love to mentor after the training. I do outreach activities for
> ICANN wiki and coordinate the Kenya School of Internet Governance where I
> believe this training will be of great use. I still engage with my coach
> and always ask here and there for information on how to get more active
> with ICANN. I plan to extend this kind of relationship to this program
