> >>>>>
> >>>>> Departure and arrival on return: Johannesburg, OR Tambo
> International airport
> >>>>>
> >>>>> Reason for attending
> >>>>>
> >>>>> -To participate and follow up on NCUC Africa engagement plans during
> ICANN65, Africa Strategy meeting.
> >>>>>
> >>>>> -To also follow up on CCWG on AP discussions and Open Data
> Initiative discussions and proceedings.
> >>>>>
> >>>>> -To deepen my participation within NCUC and NCSG activities and
> support newcomers if opportunity permits.
> >>>>>
> >>>>>
> >>>>> Previously, I was involved in the Finance Committee of NCSG and am
> still am involved. I have initiated communication with different working
> groups like Open Data Initiative, Universal Acceptance, ICANN Finance
> meetings and I also contributed and facilitated community draft comments on
> IANA/PTI plans and budgets, ICANN plans and budgets.
> >>>>>
> >>>>>
> >>>>> Within NCUC, I have also mentored newcomers in order to fast track
> their participation within ICANN and constituency activities, through the
> NCUC buddy program, which I believe, need to be revived as it was a very
> good program that gets members active and broadens participation. I also
> managed the NCUC stall during the 2017 Global IGF in Geneva, over 2 days,
> at differentiated time slots. I was also involved in the coordination of
> NCUC outreach in Johannesburg, pre ICANN59, 2017.
> >>>>>
> >>>>>
> >>>>> I have also coordinated online meetings with NCSG FC committee
> members, started to develop the FC document repository, attended NCSG and
> NCUC monthly calls and normally giving report on the FC activities,
> although the past 5 months have been challenging due to various reasons.
> >>>>>
> >>>>>
> >>>>> Now with a change in role within the FC, attending this meeting will
> provide me another opportunity to serve NCUC in a different capacity,
> especially when it comes to exploring AFRALO and AFRICA GSE office
> collaboration opportunities, New gTLD AP proceedings and next steps and the
> exciting Open Data Initiative that aims to simplify access to information
> and develop respective procedures to be followed before data is publicized
> or made available to the community by ICANN. I also intend to follow up on
> ICANN 5-year and annual plans and budget sessions by ICANN finance.
> >>>>>
> >>>>>
> >>>>> I normally publish reports after each ICANN meeting but my ICANN64
> report was distributed to the Africa NCUC mailing list. (See attached
> report with follow up community communique that was shared with the Mailing
> list after a meeting with ICANN Africa GSE VP, Pierre Dadnjinou). I still
> plan to bring a telling voice within the community of NCUC and NCSG.
> >>>>>
> >>>>>
> >>>>> Whenever not onsite, I attend some ICANN meetings online, like ICANN
> 61 and ICANN 63, making representations at NCUC constituency day and
> actively participating remotely. I am also open to still serving NCUC in
> any other capacity or for any other initiative. Since ICANN64, I am
> currently coordinating with the NCUC EC Africa representative, a way to
> improve regional participation and contribution in ICANN, NCSG and
> constituency activities. Thanks.
