[NCSG-PC] Preparing for Johannesburg Meeting

[farzaneh badii]

Thanks Rafik for this.

A little frustrated observer here :


I do urge our councilors to participate in preparation for

1. The preparatory policy webinar before ICANN meeting, which can be
addressed to newcomers as well as those who want to become more active in
ICANN

2. policy outreach sessions of NCSG that will take place during the ICANN
meeting

Since the next ICANN meeting is a policy/outreach meeting, I have relied on
NCSG for outreach and awareness raising about policymaking and policy
issues and I did not ask for many NCUC meetings, to avoid conflict and also
allow members to attend and learn about as many policy issues as they can.

But members need briefing and policy outreach sessions need preparations.
Rafik and others can't do everything. So I do request the councilors to
help us prepare for ICANN 59. Marillia and Stefi, I specifically seek your
kind help.

Best

Farzaneh
