Andrew, we just did an event in Latin America, and I have not seen any feedback yet from that, so hesitate to comment on how it went. ... I know you spoke remotely, so perhaps yo that was not CROP, as we had not had our Outreach Strategy posted in time.
So, we have still five, if I count... I expect that Omar may request CROP to attend the WITSA meeting in India, but that is within his region. If we reserve one for Panama for Latin America/Caribbean, that would still mean that we can support the proposal, if the attendance is justified.
As Tola, Ola, Lawrence, and Jimson are all local, we have a very good base of representatives to build upon, to reach other businesses, and governmental representatives from Africa.

A BC outreach during e-Nigeria is most welcome. This is one of the biggest
IT events in the country with robust participation from the private and
public sector.
Can more insight be provided around the program of the day and how the
outreach itself would be structured.
I would also like to know who the beneficiaries of the 1 Out of region
travel support and 2 in-region travel support would be. Reason being that
the outreach is just after ICANN 60 so if the persons are travel funded by
ICANN to Abu Dabi it's possible to have ICANN travel extend their tickets
to Nigeria while the BC cover the per Diem cost. This way we may still
have the BC CROP travel slot for future use.
Lawrence.
