Important - Available Travel Slots for ICANN63
by ICANN At-Large Staff July 13, 2018

July 13, 2018

Dear All, Please see below a note from Alan Greenberg, ALAC Chair, regarding available travel slots for ICANN63. ** The ALAC has several travel slots available for the ICANN63 meeting in Barcelona from 20-25 October 2018<https://meetings.icann.org/en/barcelona63>. There are two travel slots that will be allocated to At-Large participants who are ACTIVELY involved in some ICANN policy activity, or those with a strong history of such involvement in the past and an interest to restart. Those include gNSO or ccNSO PDPs, CCWGs, ALAC support Working Groups and the At-Large Review (with a lesser emphasis on the latter). Other slots may be opened due to other travellers not being able to attend or not requiring full funding. If you are interested in being considered for one of these travel slots, please complete the following survey: https://goo.gl/forms/IruNuvaXpZdKLjCs2 We have a very short time in which to finalize our traveler list, so replies are due no later than 23:59 UTC on Thursday 19 July 2018.
