[APAC-Discuss] APAC-Discuss Digest, Vol 68, Issue 11

Wed Jul 25 12:21:39 UTC 2012

Dear APRALO colleagues,

As I have mentioned during face-to-face APRALO meeting in Prague, I will not be able to be in Baku for IGF in person due to the reasons I have mentioned, but I am ready to support via remote participation, both as a panelist or remote moderator. There is also a suggestion came to me from ICANN fellowship program (from Janice) to be one of the panelists for workshop on Youth participation, organized by DotAsia (Edmond Chung is aware of this) at the upcoming IGF and I also agreed to participate remotely, though it is still under discussion and I haven't received any updates on this. 

However, if there will be a need for any support from my side, I would be happy to step in, considering the fact that I will be able to support only online.

Best

Siranush
