[NCUC-EC] Fwd: Funding civil society day before IGF

Mon Nov 27 13:35:26 CET 2017

Hi Renata,

Thanks for the reply. For future events I think it would be better to have
a budget breakdown requirement? What do you think? I would also very much
appreciate it if you could kindly give me some feedback regarding some
points mentioned in the email like the NCUC budget and a potential EC
meeting to discuss the event in detail and the possibility of having a
separate NCUC event?

Thanks again for your efforts!

Best,

Elsa
