 Dear Thato,
They narrow the scope because they seek to provide the aid to the people (within the region) who are really in need and are usually underrepresented during ICANN meetings. I can still recall the previous call (share by the former chair Farzaneh) which only emphasised two or three countries from Europe to no avail.

As some of you may recall, we have an approved additional budget request for 2018-19 to fund the participation of representatives from under-served countries, in the various ICANN meetings.  ICANN 65 in Marrakech is coming, up, and members are encouraged to apply for the funding if they are resident in the following countries:
   
   - Guinea Bissau
   - Sao Tome and Principe
   - Eritrea

This is a short list, and a short time frame as we are being asked to confirm our list of travellers by February 22nd.  If you know members who might qualify and be interested, please bring it to their attention.  Please forward statements of interest to myself and Maryam Bakoshi by COB February 21st.


kind regards, 


Stephanie Perrin

NCSG Chair
