Dear All,

ccNSO travel funding is available for a limited set of travelers for the ICANN60 public meeting, taking place between 28 October and 3 November 2017 in Abu Dhabi.  The application window has opened 29 June 2017 12:00 UTC (noon) and closes Tuesday 12 July 2017 23:59 UTC.  No early/late submissions will be accepted!

Funding to attend and participate in ICANN60 is made available to a small set of travelers, who meet the following requirement: They actively participate in the work of the ccNSO, and make a special contribution to its projects and meetings.

Examples of contributions to the work of the ccNSO: an active engagement in a ccNSO working group, a presentation at the ccNSO member meeting, or other engagements that strengthen the activities of the ccNSO. Important: Applications which do not clearly state an active contribution, are not eligible and will not be taken into consideration.

The funding covers an economy class ticket to the travel destination, the hotel costs for the time of the meeting and a per diem (either full funding, or partial funding). A document with background information on the funding scheme is available at: http://ccnso.icann.org/about/travel-funding-guideline-07apr16-en.pdf[ccnso.icann.org]

Full details on how to submit your application can be found here: http://ccnso.icann.org/about/travel-funding[ccnso.icann.org]. Once the application window closed, the ccNSO Travel Fund Committee members will evaluate all applications. The outcome of their deliberations will be published on the ccNSO website towards the end of July. All applicants will receive a personal notification as well.

Best regards,

Bart Boswinkel
