[Renata Aquino Ribeiro]

Hi everyone,


It’s time to receive candidates for sponsored travellers at ICANN63.


This is a call for NCSG supported travellers - NCUC, NPOC and NCSG
independent members are eligible.


The budget is for 2 attendees who wish to be more involved with
activities of the stakeholder group, as you can see in the travel
policy (https://www.ncuc.org/get-involved/travel-policy/) .


The next meeting is in Barcelona - Spain, and we ask you to be ready
to be mindful of visa requirements and prepare all your documentation
to attend.


Meeting dates: 20-25 October 2018


The selected candidate should participate in all meeting days


This opportunity offers a budget of 2000 USD maximum per traveller.
Funds will be reimbursed to you upon conclusion of your trip and
delivery of a report (which may be published as a blog post) and
relevant receipts.


Consider the following points in your statement.

1. Why do you want to attend the 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) will  get involved with? (please provide
links to your mailing list contributions and your record of attendance
in WG meetings)

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. How much time, effort and work will you spend studying policy
topics before, during and after the meeting? And will you stay engaged
or volunteer to mentor future NCSG members? If you have been a part of
NCUC Buddy Pilot program or plan to participate in this or other
training programs within NCSG, NCUC or NPOC please mention.

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