Dear NCUC,


I am sending my updated application for NCUC CROP LAC, addressing EC comments.


Name of Event

LACNIC29

http://www.lacnic.net/lacnic29


Date

30 April to 2 May in Panama


How you plan to outreach for NCUC at the event?
I have 2 invites to sessions in progress, LACNIC is looking into
including me as participant on a panel and Policy Forum moderator
(NCUC member) also has a session approved and there is a possibility I
contribute there too.


LACNIC also has an assistance program for newcomers, several working
groups and debates.


The Caribbean is traditionally less represented in these events and I
feel this is a great opportunity to do outreach for all LAC, as I'm
also from an organization in the Caribbean (ISOC SVG).


I am prepared to work with NCUC and GSE to adapt and further outline
my outreach plan.


I will note that I have also sent 2 works to LACNIC to be presented in
the Technical Forum co-authored by Chair. They were sent for comments
to the general list and to EC. Unfortunately they were not approved.


This was my 1st time sending works to LACNIC so I'll also try to join
in other debates and sessions and work for NCUC outreach while
learning more about policy in this RIR.


Why you think your application should be considered?

I am an ICANN fellow keen to be more involved with NCUC and signed up
my organization for that effect.

LACNIC has an assistance program but only covers airfare or hotel.

I am signed up but even if selected, I can not fund the other part.

So CROP would be needed in my case since it covers hotel and airfare.


I am from St. Vincent and Grenadines, relatively close to Panama, in
the Caribbean.

I do not need a visa to Panama as per this link

I have  joined a GSE webinar on Nextgen and ICANN Fellowship
participants speaking about NCUC and I am ready to do much more
outreach actions if necessary.


I have just started following up comments and working groups and plan
to be even more engaged and bring more from my region.


Thanks,


Roxanne John
