Global input and ideas will be on the rise at the 37th International Public Meeting of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers thanks to ICANN's on-going Fellowship program.
"The Fellowship program is a real testament to the importance ICANN places on global engagement through increased participation from the developing and least developed world," said Theresa Swinehart , ICANN's Vice President, Global and Strategic Partnerships. "Reaching out to the global community, we saw a desire to be a part of the key discussions that take place at our meetings, but some countries and Internet users just didn't have the resources to attend. The Fellowship program helps bridge that gap."
As a reminder about the process, applications for each meeting are assessed by an independent selection committee, and priority is given to applicants who are current residents of developing and least developed nations in the region in which the meeting is to be held, who are interested in participating in ICANN and its supporting organizations, such as the Governmental Advisory Committee, the Country Code Names Supporting Organization, and the Generic Names Supporting Organization.
