I agree with the criteria, and the decision. I agree it is a good idea to give priority to outside of the region for travel slots, and inside the region for NCUC fellowships.

They should also have enough knowledge about what NCUC does and how ICANN works to hold the booth at IGF and explain things to the visitors. But I think it's a good idea to have the NCUC fellowship for inside the region. We just have to be fair in allocating the slots and be mindful of those who apply from outside of Europe.

I would also like really to add that even if the proposal drafted by Ayden didn't get through, he is a co-submitter of the proposal that made it to the IGF. He worked tirelessly with Farzaneh and me drafting several proposals -- we drafted 4 to have a back up option.

Ayden does not appear as a workshop panelist here:(See http://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/igf-2017-ws-67-content-regulation-and-private-ordering-at-internet-governance-institutions <http://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/igf-2017-ws-67-content-regulation-and-private-ordering-at-internet-governance-institutions>).
