[Dev Anand Teelucksingh]

Dear All,

The deadline to apply to ICANN's Fellowship Program to attend the 43rd
ICANN meeting in Costa Rica is November 14 2011.

The ICANN Fellowship Program is a grant of support awarded to individuals
from stakeholder groups around the world to attend ICANN meetings. The 43rd
ICANN meeting will be held in San Jose, Costa Rica from March 11 to 16 in
2012.

As mentioned on the ICANN's Fellowship Page at
http://www.icann.org/en/fellowships/ :

Applicants must be citizens of economically eligible countries. ICANN's
Fellowship Program uses a combination of the World Bank classification of
low, lower-middle, and upper-middle economies at
http://data.worldbank.org/about/country-classifications/country-and-lending-groups,
along with two UN groupings of developing and least developed nations
at
http://www.unohrlls.org/en/sids/44/ and http://www.unohrlls.org/en/ldc/25/ .

The fellowship covers the cost of economy class airfare and hotel, as well
as providing a stipend after successful completion of the
program, in order to assist in covering some basic expenses incurred by the
fellow. Recipients are expected to actively contribute to ICANN processes
and be a part of the next generation of ICANN leadership.
