Dear Julf,

It was great having you join us for the 2023 ICANN Academy Leadership 
Program (LP)!

We are now preparing for the 8^th  edition of the LP, which is scheduled 
to take place 29 February - 1 March 2024, two days prior to the official 
start of ICANN79 in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

For this program, one seat is reserved for a representative from the 
NCSG. As you are aware, the program is designed for current 
/_and_/incoming leaders, helping to increase understanding of the 
complexity of ICANN and to develop facilitation skills, as well as 
building a network with other leaders. We are aware that understanding 
ICANN as an organization, the topics discussed within ICANN, and 
interaction within other stakeholder groups can be challenging for 
incoming leaders, but sometimes also for experienced leaders. ICANN and 
the community are making considerable efforts in order to help incoming 
leaders have a good start to their terms and to provide current leaders 
the opportunity to strengthen their leadership and facilitation skills. 
Opportunities for Leadership Program participants include the following:

   * Meet leaders from the other SOs/ACs and get an insight of the
     functionality and issues in other groups
   * Discuss current ICANN topics in an in-depth manner
   * Deepen the understanding of key ICANN processes
   * Develop facilitation and leadership skills, focused personal
     effectiveness to run meetings and foster processes

A preliminary agenda is attached to this email. Kindly note that this is 
subject to change.

Accommodation for participants will be covered between Wednesday and 
Thursday, 28-29 February 2024, and participants will receive a stipend. 
Please note that flights will*NOT*be covered under this program, as 
incoming and current leaders are normally covered by the regular ICANN 
travel support. Please ensure that the leaders you select are being 
covered by ICANN Travel Support for their flights to San Juan for ICANN79.

We would like to ask you to identify one incoming or current leader from 
your stakeholder group who is interested and available to participate in 
this program. We recommend that you also identify an alternate candidate.

*Kindly forward us the names and email addresses of the endorsed 
individuals no later than Wednesday, 15 November 2023, and ask them to 
register **here* <https://forms.gle/cvr6qt5jRXGQKQNo6>***by Friday, 17 
November 2023.*

We hope this program will meet the needs of your community. All 
participants will be encouraged to partake in an open exchange of their 
views, as this will help facilitate cross-constituency collaboration 
during their terms.

We are happy to answer any questions you may have and look forward to 
having your group’s participants confirmed.

If you would like to learn more about the program, Sandra can give a 
short presentation at the upcoming ICANN78 meeting at a time that is 
convenient for your group.

Kind regards,

Sandra Hoferichter, Chair of the ICANN Academy Working Group

Fernanda Iunes, ICANN Capacity Development Program Manager
