Dear Julf,<br>
<br>
It was great having you join us for the 2023 ICANN Academy Leadership <br>
Program (LP)!<br>
<br>
We are now preparing for the 8^th edition of the LP, which is scheduled <br>
to take place 29 February - 1 March 2024, two days prior to the official <br>
start of ICANN79 in San Juan, Puerto Rico.<br>
<br>
For this program, one seat is reserved for a representative from the <br>
NCSG. As you are aware, the program is designed for current <br>
/_and_/incoming leaders, helping to increase understanding of the <br>
complexity of ICANN and to develop facilitation skills, as well as <br>
building a network with other leaders. We are aware that understanding <br>
ICANN as an organization, the topics discussed within ICANN, and <br>
interaction within other stakeholder groups can be challenging for <br>
incoming leaders, but sometimes also for experienced leaders. ICANN and <br>
the community are making considerable efforts in order to help incoming <br>
leaders have a good start to their terms and to provide current leaders <br>
the opportunity to strengthen their leadership and facilitation skills. <br>
Opportunities for Leadership Program participants include the following:<br>
<br>
* Meet leaders from the other SOs/ACs and get an insight of the<br>
functionality and issues in other groups<br>
* Discuss current ICANN topics in an in-depth manner<br>
* Deepen the understanding of key ICANN processes<br>
* Develop facilitation and leadership skills, focused personal<br>
effectiveness to run meetings and foster processes<br>
<br>
A preliminary agenda is attached to this email. Kindly note that this is <br>
subject to change.<br>
<br>
Accommodation for participants will be covered between Wednesday and <br>
Thursday, 28-29 February 2024, and participants will receive a stipend. <br>
Please note that flights will*NOT*be covered under this program, as <br>
incoming and current leaders are normally covered by the regular ICANN <br>
travel support. Please ensure that the leaders you select are being <br>
covered by ICANN Travel Support for their flights to San Juan for ICANN79.<br>
<br>
We would like to ask you to identify one incoming or current leader from <br>
your stakeholder group who is interested and available to participate in <br>
this program. We recommend that you also identify an alternate candidate.<br>
<br>
*Kindly forward us the names and email addresses of the endorsed <br>
individuals no later than Wednesday, 15 November 2023, and ask them to <br>
register **here* <<a href="https://forms.gle/cvr6qt5jRXGQKQNo6" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://forms.gle/cvr6qt5jRXGQKQNo6</a>>***by Friday, 17 <br>
November 2023.*<br>
<br>
We hope this program will meet the needs of your community. All <br>
participants will be encouraged to partake in an open exchange of their <br>
views, as this will help facilitate cross-constituency collaboration <br>
during their terms.<br>
<br>
We are happy to answer any questions you may have and look forward to <br>
having your group’s participants confirmed.<br>
<br>
If you would like to learn more about the program, Sandra can give a <br>
short presentation at the upcoming ICANN78 meeting at a time that is <br>
convenient for your group.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
<br>
Sandra Hoferichter, Chair of the ICANN Academy Working Group<br>
<br>
Fernanda Iunes, ICANN Capacity Development Program Manager<br>
