Friends and Colleagues,

I trust this finds you well.

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is calling for applications for the NextGen@ICANN Program.

ICANN wants to hear from university students ages 18-30 living and studying in the Asia Pacific region who are interested in the future of the Internet and participating in the ICANN81 Annual General Meeting. ICANN81 is scheduled to be held in Istanbul, Türkiye, from 9–14 November 2024. If ICANN81 is held virtually, the NextGen@ICANN Program will also be held virtually.

The NextGen application window for ICANN81 will remain open until 17 May 2024. Successful candidates will be announced on 12 July 2024 on the ICANN website. For more information about the program and to apply, please visit the NextGen@ICANN website.

Wishing those who celebrate Eid ul-Fitr a happy and joyess Eid. Eid Mubarak.

Thank you,

Fahd Batayneh
