>23 May 2012 until 23:59 UTC on 8 July 2012. Successful candidates will be
>posted on the ICANN Fellowship webpage by 17 August 2012.
>What Is ICANN?
>To reach another person on the Internet you have to type an address into
>your computer - a name or a number. That address has to be unique so
>computers know where to find each other. ICANN coordinates these unique
>identifiers across the world. Without that coordination we wouldn't have one
>global Internet.
>
>ICANN was formed in 1998. It is a not-for-profit public-benefit corporation
>with participants from all over the world dedicated to keeping the Internet
>secure, stable and interoperable. It promotes competition and develops
>policy on the Internet's unique identifiers.
>
>ICANN doesn't control content on the Internet. It cannot stop spam and it
>doesn't deal with access to the Internet. But through its coordination role
>of the Internet's naming system, it does have an important impact on the
>expansion and evolution of the Internet.
