Dear CCWG-Acct ,
I wanted to let you know that the November 2nd Face-to-Face
meeting in Hyderabad the day before ICANN 57 has been confirmed.
A process had been prepared for CCWG appointed members to
apply for travel funding to attend the meeting that aligns with the CCWG-Acct
budget for WS2.
The current budgeted amount to support the work of CCWG WS2
members allocates support (travel, hotel and per diem) for an amount equivalent
to 20 appointed members to attend a CCWG-Acct. face-to-face meeting in
association with an ICANN meeting with support for 7 days. The Co-Chairs have the authority to
re-allocate this amount – this could include supporting requests for partial
funding to allow them to maximize the number of members attending (e.g. if
someone only needs a few additional days of hotel this could be acceptable).
You are eligible for travel support from the CCWG if you are
an officially appointed member of WS2 from a Chartering SO or AC.
Travel support arrangements will follow Constituency Travel
Guidelines located at:
https://community.icann.org/display/trvlconstit/Constituency+Travel+Home
The CCWG travel support slots will be allocated as follows:
CCWG Co-Chairs – 3 slots (or
equivalent amount)
CCWG Appointed Members – 17 slots
(or equivalent amount)
CCWG appointed Members requesting consideration by the
Co-Chairs for travel support to attend a face-to-face meeting must complete the
travel request form three (3) months in advance of the date of the CCWG
face-to-face meeting in order to be considered for funding.
NOTE: In evaluating
the applications for travel funding the Co-Chairs will consider applicant's
attendance to CCWG meetings and their contributions to the ongoing work.
CCWG Staff support will send out an announcement regarding the application for travel support and deadline for application submissions as soon as a face-to-face meeting has been approved. The application to request travel support is located at: https://community.icann.org/x/qQubAw
The deadline for applications for travel funding for the Hyderabad face-to-face meeting is August 5th 23:59 UTC.
CCWG approved members seeking travel support must submit
their applications by the August 5th in order to be considered for
travel support
Completed forms can be sent to Acct-Staff@icann.org for submission to
the Co-Chairs for review and approval.
All applicants for CCWG WS2 travel support will be posted on
the CCWG WS2 wiki under Travel Support at https://community.icann.org/x/qQubAw. Names will be listed under Requested and then
once approved will be list under approved for travel support including the type
of support that is approved
The Co-Chairs will review the applications received,
including the requests for partial support, and determine the list of approved
CCWG members who will receive travel funding.
The CCWG approved travel support list will be submitted to
ICANN Constituency Travel for processing according to community travel
guidelines.
The approved list of funded CCWG members will be posted on
