Subject: [Ext] CROP Application for Africa Internet Summit



Dear Chair and Maryam


I'm sending a CROP application for Africa Internet Summit and appreciate your evaluation.


I've been involved in NCUC for more than a year, in outreach, working groups and comments and hope to deepen my understanding and bring new members.


Thank you


Liz Orembo

Name of Event: Africa Internet Summit

Date: AIS starts from 29th April to 11th May with Afnog. But considering the maximum funding days, I plan to attend the last week of policy sessions. So that will be 8th-11th May.

How you plan to outreach for NCUC at the event?
In last year's AIS, I was a volunteer in ICANN regional outreach by coordinating the information desk. I mobilized the ICANN WIKI trainees I had mentored during and after training to help with the outreach desk.

This time I plan to work with the regional engagement teams on ICANN sessions, main focus this time will be on NCUC and its role at ICANN.


I'm also planning on sending a presentation proposal. Until 2 March this can be done. I'll try to build this presentation with NCUC members.


There are also fellowship opportunities to AIS.


As I have been a volunteer to the event before, it could be I do not get the fellowship so CROP would be important for my attendance.


Why you think your application should be considered?


I am effective at ICANN outreach activities and I have a good understanding of how the NCUC works and its role in ICANN. I have also helped facilitate NCUC outreach meetings in Nairobi, with the engagement office.

My objective for this meeting is to get more stakeholders from different backgrounds to bring in their divergent views in NCUC and also interact with the Africa ICANN community, share views on our roles and contributions in the ICANN ecosystem and find intersecting points with NCUC works.


I'm from Kenya and interested in advocacy and policy in digital rights. I've also participated in global events such as IGF and others on the topic. I've also contributed to NCUC proposals to events such as the WSIS 2018 one. At NCUC Africa list in preparing for content a regional calls, I'm also always following developments and participating.
