Dear EURALO members,

on today's EURALO call we discussed the EURALO events at the forthcoming
ICANN meeting in Copenhagen (11-16 March 2017), in particular relating
to outreach. It was decided to work with the Outreach and Engagement
working group, the Capacity Building Working Group, as well as the
Regional Vice Presidents Jean-Jacques Sahel and Michael Yakushev, as
well as Adam Peake, who is helping us out with Outreach and leads the
work about the Civil Society engagement at ICANN.

I mentioned both the Fellowship (see below) and the NextGen program
(young people/students from the local area - the European Region in our
case). Please be so kind to find the announcement of the fellowship
below. Should we identify the fellows from our region and engage them
*before* they arrive at the ICANN meeting?

Kindest regards,

Olivier
