Dear All, This is a reminder that the ccNSO Meetings Programme Committee (MPC) is seeking presenters for the next edition of the ccTLD News session, to be held 2-7 March during the ICANN79 Community Forum in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The MPC encourages ccTLDs to submit proposals, spread the word among colleagues and peers in the ccTLD community, and join the session. I would like to present: How do I apply for a speaking slot? To submit your proposal, please go to https://forms.gle/6JZUTf48UsSbkzxT8 The deadline for submissions is Friday, 19 January 2024 (23:59 UTC). Next steps After the application deadline, the MPC will review all proposals and set the agenda for the meeting. Latest by the end of January, the ccNSO Secretariat will notify all applicants and publish the agenda for the ccTLD News Session. All presenters will receive a briefing paper outlining the run sheet, roles and other useful considerations. All session presenters will be invited to attend an informational pre-session meeting and a rehearsal session closer to ICANN79. About the ccTLD News Session The ICANN79 ccTLD News Session is tentatively scheduled for 5 or 6 March, and will allow for both in-person and virtual participation. Simultaneous interpretation will be available for selected ccNSO sessions during the next ICANN Public Meeting, including the ccTLD News Session. Participants will be able to select the language they wish to speak or listen to. Languages available will be Arabic, English, French or Spanish. Previous editions of the ccTLD News Sessions had an excellent collection of case studies, statistics, new developments, trends and more. The ccTLD News Sessions have been a part of the ccNSO Members Meetings for several years and has provided a global platform for both experienced and new people to meet, share experiences and discuss ccTLD-related aspects. For reference, the most recent session was held during ICANN78. Best regards, Joke Braeken joke.braeken@icann.org<mailto:joke.braeken@icann.org>
