ICANN 62 – NPOC is growing up!

Three NPOC Executive Committee members attended the  ICANN62 Policy Forum held in Panama from June 25th to 28th, 2018. In addition to the Executive Committee members, the constituency had representatives from the Onboarding Program, 3 people, One Regional Fellow and other representative from our members team. Some of our attendees already had experience and other ones were new in ICANN meetings.

Meetings & Activities

  • Capacity Building

Presentation: Joint NCSG/ALAC

  • Members’ Session

NPOC’s member session encourage  all attendees to participate, with many of them asking about how they can get involved in the Policy Committee and help NPOC to contribute to to policy making.  There were 8 people who signed up. The ExCom, in its due diligence, formally sent a call for volunteers on the NPOC Discuss list.

This is a historic moment in NPOC’s journey, where a Policy Committee will be formed with experts on the Internet Governance and operational issues that will educate and engage members in the policy development process.
