[NCSG-PC] [Suggestion] Additional Budgetary Request - NCSG PC Strategic Planning Session

[Farell Folly]

Hello Ayden,

This is a very good idea. I am in full support of it and as you said the
staff should be minimal to avoid a high increase in budget.

There are another strategic meetings such as the intercessional where many
members of the PC already participate. Can we just propose to colocate both
and conduct this PC strategic after or before? It will cost only additional
days for accomodation for those who already participate to the
intercessional and travel tickets for the remaining members, instead of a
complete new logistic plan !

> session would allow the Officers of the NCSG Policy Committee to develop an
> appropriate and ambitious work plan for the year ahead, to negotiate and
> determine NCSG positions on pressing issues, and, for the first time, to
> draft a five-year strategic plan for the Policy Committee’s activities.
> This is a session which we would like to hold outside of the setting of a

> ICANN meetings, given our Officers involvement in other working groups and
> on the GNSO Council, there is never enough time to think about our more
> long-term objectives. This session would allow us to develop a work plan
> for both the next 12 months, and at a higher level, for the next five
> years, and is best suited to being held in isolation away from the
> pressures of our other ICANN commitments. This session would be largely
> self-organised with minimal staff support required.*

> The deadline for submitting additional budgetary requests is 31 January,
> so I would like to suggest that we add this to the agenda for our upcoming
> policy call to discuss further. Thanks!
