<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 10pt;line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span lang="EN-US">Following a
successful ICANN panel during this year’s CPDP, where we presented the challenges
to multistakeholder policy making resulting from the implementation of the GDPR
(<a href="https://www.cpdpconferences.org/cpdp-panels/ensuring-domain-name-data-is-safe-the-whois-experience-of-balancing-cybersecurity-and-privacy-needs-in-the-era-of-gdpr-and-major-evolution-of-privacy-legislation-around-the-world" style="color:blue">https://www.cpdpconferences.org/cpdp-panels/ensuring-domain-name-data-is-safe-the-whois-experience-of-balancing-cybersecurity-and-privacy-needs-in-the-era-of-gdpr-and-major-evolution-of-privacy-legislation-around-the-world</a>)
set up  together with the local ICANN GSE
team, I was approached by the organizers of the TILTing conference, scheduled
for May this year in Tilburg (<a href="https://www.tilburguniversity.edu/research/institutes-and-research-groups/tilt/events/tilting-perspectives/" style="color:blue">https://www.tilburguniversity.edu/research/institutes-and-research-groups/tilt/events/tilting-perspectives/</a>).
As per their e-mail, they would love to feature an ICANN At-Large related theme
in their agenda, yet since the invitation comes late, they cannot subsidize
travel and accommodation. With that in mind, following their request I am
reaching out the EURALO O&E WG with a kind request for considering an additional
CROP funding request. The funding would cover my travel to and accommodation in
Tilburg to present during the TILTing conference on ICANN multistakeholder
policy making and the role of users. Please let me note that the event is
relatively prestigious in the local policy and academic bubble and presenting our
ICANN agenda there might benefit the overall O&E agenda. The total
estimated cost of travel and accommodation should not exceed 550 EURO. </span></p>
