Dear All,

ccNSO travel support is available for a limited set of travelers for
ICANN80, held 10-13 June 2024 in Kigali, Rwanda. The ccNSO accepts
applications for ccNSO travel support as of Thursday, 18 January 2024
(noon UTC), until Thursday, 1 February 2024 (noon UTC). Early or late
submissions will not be evaluated.

APPLICANT REQUIREMENTS. The applicant actively participates in the work
of the ccNSO and contributes to its projects and meetings. Examples of
contributions to the work of the ccNSO: an active engagement in a ccNSO
working group, a role as presenter/session chair/moderator during ccNSO
sessions at the public meeting, or other engagements that strengthen the
activities of the ccNSO.  Important: Applications which do not clearly
state an active contribution, are not eligible and will not be taken
into consideration.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS. Review all materials and fill in the form
located here:

https://ccnso.icann.org/en/about/travel-funding/form [1] All
applications should be submitted in English.  The ccNSO accepts
applications for ccNSO travel support as of Thursday, 18 January 2024
(noon UTC), until Thursday, 1 February 2024 (noon UTC). Early or late
submissions will not be evaluated.

NEXT STEPS. Once the application window is closed, the ccNSO Council
Travel Fund Committee will evaluate all applications. The outcome of the
committee’s deliberations will be published on the ccNSO website. All
applicants will receive a personal notification.

ICANN TRAVEL SUPPORT.  The travel funding provided by the ccNSO to a
selected and limited number of active ccTLD community members covers an
economy class ticket to the travel destination, the hotel costs for the
time of the meeting and a per diem (either full funding, or partial
funding). For more details, consult the ccNSO Travel Fund Guideline:
https://ccnso.icann.org/en/about/ccnso-draft-oisc-07jun21-en.pdf [2]

Consult the ICANN Community Travel Support Guidelines here:

ICANN might require funded Travelers to sign an acknowledgement and
waiver, built in the meeting registration for anyone that is registering
for in-person participation. Instructions on how to book travel will be
provided by ICANN Travel Support to funded travelers who are confirmed
and eligible.

TRAVEL ARRIVAL MEASURES. All travelers have a responsibility to
understand the entry and exit requirements of their travel and determine
if they can meet those requirements before committing to the travel.
Travelers may review specific travel requirements by visiting
https://apply.joinsherpa.com/map [4] or their local government
international traveler websites.

ICANN is committed to ensuring inclusive Public Meetings that provide an
equal opportunity for all to engage. If funded travelers are not
eligible or cannot meet the entry requirements as outlined by the
government of the meeting location, ICANN aims to offer an engaging
virtual participation experience.

Best regards,

Joke Braeken
