Enable Participation of Persons With Disabilities in IGF 2026 - Apply Now!
To: <internetpolicy at elists.isoc.org>


Hi All,

I am pleased to announce that applications are now open for the IGF 2026
DCAD fellowship Grants, aimed at supporting the participation of persons
with disabilities at the Internet Governance Forum (IGF) 2026. These grants
are designed to enhance accessibility and ensure inclusive representation
in IGF discussions.

The last date to apply is 03 August 2026. For detailed information about
the grants, eligibility criteria, and application process, please visit the
Information Page:

https://igf-dcad.org/igf2026_grants/  Please do take note that the IGF
Secretariat has not yet opened registration for IGF 2026. Registration is
expected to open in late July. While IGF registration will be required to
participate in IGF 2026, applicants will not be disadvantaged in the DCAD
fellowship selection process if registration has not opened, or if they are
not yet registered, by the fellowship application deadline.

To apply, please fill out the Application Form at:

https://igf-dcad.org/igf2026-grant-application/

An independent selection committee will review all applications and make
the final selection based on the established criteria and available funds.
We encourage all eligible individuals to apply and to share this
opportunity within your networks to ensure greater participation of persons
with disabilities at IGF 2026.

Best,

Judith Hellerstein
CO-Coordinator, IGF-DCAD (Internet Governance Forum’s Dynamic Coalition on
Accessibility and Disability),
