[Igf-team] Global IGF 2017 - NCSG

Wed Apr 26 10:55:47 EEST 2017

Dear all,

Thanks  Martins for reaching. @William is right about how to choose the
topic and what are the reasons behind the choice of Security and DNS.

I suggest we give today (NLT tomorrow) as deadline for anyone who would
like to make any other suggestion. Otherwise, me must try and increase our
chance to  win application  for this one.

Best Regards

> Support a healthy, stable and resilient unique identifier ecosystem.

>
> All ICANN regional groups (NCSG has members in more than 100 countries).

>
> *4) Deliverables. What arethe desired outcomes of your proposed activity?*
> Raised awareness about cybersecurity issues related to DNS and their

> Attendance, both onsite and online; increased participation on related
