[cc-humanrights] [cc-humanrights-research] CCWP-HR Research: Call for volunteers (reply by 8th April) + Call Update

[vidushi at cis-india.org]

Thank you to everyone for your comments. 

It appears I forgot to attach the table to the previous mail, but I have attached it to this email :) 

Rafik, the Subsequent Procedures PDP is a specific focus area, and depending on the number of volunteers we get we will be deciding whether the new gTLD work can focus on other aspects (economic, freedom of expression) as well. 

Look forward to hearing from you all, 

Vidushi
