FW: GNSO Council Additional Budget Requests
by Steve Chan Jan. 31, 2020

Jan. 31, 2020

Dear Councilors, Please note that three Additional Budget Requests were just submitted on behalf of the GNSO Council ahead of the deadline. There was an additional ABR suggested by Keith, inspired by the recently concluded Strategic Planning Session. Given the importance of things like the “picket fence” and the GNSO’s role as a Decisional Participant in the Empowered Community, he believes that there is great value in capturing things like these in a format that facilitates learning in the future (e.g., training videos, interactive learning experiences), especially delivered by the likes of Becky Burr and Heather Forrest. This ABR was just drafted in the last couple of days, in consultation with Council leadership. It is certainly not ideal that you are being informed of this additional ABR after submission, so if you have any objections, please let us know ASAP. Best, Steve From: Steve Chan <steve.chan(a)icann.org> Date: Friday, January 31, 2020 at 3:39 PM To: <planning(a)icann.org> Cc: <gnso-chairs(a)icann.org> Subject: GNSO Council Additional Budget Requests Dear ABR Team, On behalf of the GNSO Council, please find three ABRs for your consideration.

Dear all, Cheryl Langdon-Orr has very kindly accepted to sponsor the ICANN67 GNSO Council Informal Dinner! Thank you Cheryl! Further information concerning the event will be communicated closer to the time. Best, Nathalie From: Gnso-secs <gnso-secs-bounces(a)icann.org> on behalf of Nathalie Peregrine <nathalie.peregrine(a)icann.org> Date: Tuesday, January 28, 2020 at 4:17 PM To: "council(a)gnso.icann.org" <council(a)gnso.icann.org> Cc: "gnso-secs(a)icann.org" <gnso-secs(a)icann.org> Subject: [gnso-secs] Volunteer(s) needed! ICANN66 GNSO Informal Council dinner Dear councilors, ICANN67 is 39 days away and, as per tradition, the GNSO Informal Council dinner will need a councilor or councilors to sponsor the event. The dinner is scheduled to take place on Sunday 8th March 2020 from 19:00 local time onwards. Staff is on hand of course to assist the councilor-sponsor with venue research, RSVP gathering, payment organising and liaising with the selected venue once it is confirmed. As a reminder, each councilor will pay for his or her food and drink in advance generally, the councilor-sponsor may have to provide a deposit ahead of time to secure the booking. Please let me know if you would like to take part in organizing this event, or if you are familiar with Cancún, you may have venues to suggest. Thank you!
