[kictanet] the ISOC Fellowship to the IETF application round

[Dorcas Muthoni]

Dear Colleagues,

The Internet Society has announced that it is inviting applications for its
latest Internet Society Fellowships to the IETF, part of its Next Generation
Leaders (NGL) programme (www.InternetSociety.org/Leaders). The Fellowship
programme allows engineers from developing countries to attend an Internet
Engineering Task Force (IETF) meeting.

As you know, the IETF is the Internet's premier standards-making body,
responsible for the development of protocols used in IP-based networks. IETF
participants represent an international community of network designers,
operators, vendors, and researchers involved in the technical operation of
the Internet and the continuing evolution of Internet architecture.

Fellowships will be awarded through a competitive application process. The
Internet Society is currently accepting fellowship applications for the next
two IETF meetings:

* IETF 80, 27 March - 1 April, Prague, Czech Republic
* IETF 81, 24 - 29 July, Quebec City, Canada

http://www.isoc.org/educpillar/fellowship/index.php

Fellowship applications for both IETF meetings are due by 17 December 2010.

I encourage you to pass on information about this program to individuals
involved in your network that have a keen interest in the Internet
standardisation activities of the IETF.

The Internet Society Fellowships to the IETF are sponsored by Afilias,
Google, Microsoft, and Intel.

The Internet Society’s Next Generation Leaders programme is sponsored by
Nominet Trust, the Association Française pour le Nommage Internet en
Coopération (AFNIC), and the European Commission.

If you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact Connie Kendig
