Fellow IPC Members, Here's another announcement of the upcoming pre-ICANN59 webinar (this time with a graphic!). I particularly recommend this webinar for: - Anyone going to ICANN59 - Anyone planning to participate remotely in ICANN59 - Anyone involved in a Working Group - Any newcomers to IPC who want an overview of where ICANN is right now in policy - Anyone involved in drafting comments - Anyone who is not currently involved, but would like to get more up to speed so they can be more involved Greg https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2-2017-05-11-en *ICANN59 Community Webinar* [image: CANN 59 | Policy Forum | Johannesburg: 26-29 June 2017 | Join the ICANN59] <https://www.icann.org/sites/default/files/assets/icann59-webinar-750x300-16m...> ICANN59 in Johannesburg, South Africa, will be ICANN's second ever Policy Forum. This four-day meeting will be focused on policy and advice development work, as well as outreach activities. ICANN will be holding an informational webinar on Tuesday, 16 May 2017, at 1600 UTC to provide the community with a full update on ICANN59, including information on logistics, accommodations and travel. Details on the meeting schedule for Johannesburg will also be shared during the webinar, as well as being posted on the ICANN59 meeting website <https://meetings.icann.org/en/johannesburg59>. The Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees (SO/ACs) have taken the lead in organizing the meeting's program. As a reminder, there will be no official opening ceremony and no public forums, but networking receptions held each night will allow participants to interact outside of work sessions. Mornings will be dedicated to individual and joint sessions of the Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees, and afternoons will feature cross-community sessions exploring a variety of topics, including ongoing policy development efforts. The call is open for all to attend. The presentation and recording will be posted shortly after the conclusion of the webinar. While we understand that there is a short notice period for this call, we wanted to hold the call as soon as feasible and allow people to listen to the recording when convenient for them. If you have questions, but are unable to attend, please email them to engagement@icann.org. We will answer submitted questions during the call as best we can, which you can then listen to once the recording has been posted to the ICANN site. *How to participate:* *Link to Adobe Connect: https://participate.icann.org/community/ <https://participate.icann.org/community/>* Upon logging into Adobe Connect, a pop up window will provide you the option to * Listen Only* or *Dial Out* to your Phone.
