Dear APRALO Community In continuation with the previous mail on the Capacity Building program at Hyderabad, we strongly recommend that APRALO ALS representatives as well as ALS members and observers who are attending ICANN57 consider attending these sessions (particularly the newcomers among them). Please note that this is a one-of-a-kind opportunity. I am posting this reminder as we have requests coming from other RALOs for participation. Before we admit them, we would like to ensure that all requests from the APRALO community are provided priority. Therefore, kindly register with Gisella (Gisella.Gruber@icann.or <Gisella.Gruber@icann.org>) as soon as you can. Thanks, satish On Fri, Oct 21, 2016 at 8:23 AM, Satish Babu <sb@inapp.com> wrote:
