Dear Colleagues,
with the Kobe ICANN meeting behind us and only three months
remaining in the current financial year, it is important to take
stock of our current outreach funding:
1. CROP
This financial year, we are only afforded three CROP slots, one of
which needing to be at an ICANN meeting.
CROP 1: Sandra Hoferichter to ICANN meeting in Barcelona
CROP 2: Natalia Filina to Global IGF
CROP 3: vacant
We need to make a decision fast. According to our list on
https://community.icann.org/x/7QarBQ as well as our RALO Hot Topics
Document which in its second part includes an updated list of
proposed meetings to go to (
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vvZoMJL2AcG2bK5vp-bxi6gr3uE8OJULdtpA3WbL32s/edit?usp=sharing
) the third CROP slot should be used for SEEDIG - Bucharest 7-8 May
2019.
Are there any volunteers to represent EURALO there?
Deadline for application: 6wk+5days before travel = 26th April 2019
Which means we have missed the deadline AGAIN.
I wish we had given responsibility to this working group to keep
track of that.
So instead, I propose that we use RALO discretionary Budget
to send someone to SEEDIG *now*. We still have $1,989 in RALO
discretionary funds for FY19. Deadline for applying for funding to
SEEDIG: 3 weeks = 16 April 2019. Any volunteers to go to SEEDIG?
Use CROP for EURODIG (18-20 June) - and again whom should travel
there? Deadline for application: 2 May 2019
Kindest regards,
Olivier
