NEW: ICANN73 Fellowship Program Participants Post-Meeting Report

The Fellowship Program was founded in 2007, in order to create a broader and more diverse base of knowledgeable constituents from underserved and underrepresented communities around the world. As a result of the ICANN Fellowship Program review and community consultations, since ICANN65 the new process for the Program is in place. One of the key changes suggested by the community is that each Fellowship cohort will produce a post-meeting report to be publicly available, which has been piloted at ICANN63 and now is an integral part of the Program requirements. ICANN73 cohort of 31 Fellows, who participated in the virtual Community Forum, produced their post-meeting report.

The report is available here [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001Q4UIa-9Q_6_qveBSjGoMmd46mxuaMQKQVCqeJKLt0T3sCITFxlyD53HD2uz6VZPG1WozswdVAaegAkcpkwYP4YRkRGXaeEdeJLSpaC8_HMhiqnlovL6B3te-FmN8Fm1C9JPlRthkGy_jzjSQtnij_SsM9z2ySUno--mZuggFGBKeVZaykf4oCYxr9AOndl5HCTziFe0TZqxUKKpV4TmAxP4_4Vic0Iukwnu7uYg1z2M=&c=YGtOAjOx-BuN3lcgHX5vxt-Rp7nNB8P51wDXUDKJpH5HTeWysFLACw==&ch=tiV5CosjyP_OVJE5Nl07YiABT_2xbsZJKPHOQG9Fn9_d3Jqdy5P81g==__;!!PtGJab4!-9ZbkE8Re4nCNtI1PCbNYSrBmBwHKYM0xbMeNBjGz1qC80nFqS-qNeZwROIaTqYVeuQNCQbfSO0yqGTnF-3tG4gGyAXgBl0$>.

NEW: Request for Appointment of Members and Liaisons to the CSC

As of 30 September 2022, several members and liaisons of the Customer Standing Committee (CSC) will complete their term. ICANN org will soon be asking chairs to initiate your respective group's processes to appoint members and liaisons to these seats. While members are required, liaison appointments are optional (albeit strongly encouraged). To ensure that the appointment process is completed in time for the start of the next CSC term, ICANN org will ask to be notified of your appointments by Monday, 1 August 2022.

More information will be shared directly via email, including detailed guidance about the process, candidate qualification requirements, and key dates.

More information about the CSC can be found here.
