ICANN Seeking Mentor for Global Indigenous Ambassador Program for ICANN61

20 December 2017

LOS ANGELES – 20 December 2017 – Today, the Internet Corporation for
Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) announced a call for a volunteer to
serve as a mentor for the Global Indigenous Ambassador Program during
ICANN61.

ICANN announced the creation of the Global Indigenous Ambassador
Program in June 2017. The program establishes two Indigenous
Ambassadors, which will be selected from underrepresented indigenous
communities, as well as one mentor. Through the inclusion of a broader
and more diverse base of knowledgeable constituents, ICANN will be
better equipped to support the next generation of the global Internet
community.

ICANN is now accepting applications for anyone interested in serving
as a mentor for the two Global Indigenous Ambassadors during ICANN61.
Mentors must be familiar with ICANN and At-Large, and have been active
in one of the constituencies. Mentors must also meet a number of
criteria listed on this
webpage[docs.google.com]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__docs.google.com_document_d_1E1idwhPVdASTKz-2DGz7zmb-2D-2DxXsDoIzSdGqF4yE9WRQs_edit&d=DwMFaQ&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=mrDeztziKLa7gZqGADzxcnHA3QXmXYsnChWYBR4NElI&m=veRma39hnX87srtnZavLKe_VnoxY9ahteH4r8ysjtXA&s=KcyAnpB2KCUXG7iAuqPrGmmkieDeBMvyGtfH1-WJNN4&e=>

address – a name or a number – into your computer or other device.
That address must be unique so computers know where to find each
other. ICANN helps coordinate and support these unique identifiers
across the world. ICANN was formed in 1998 as a not-for-profit
public-benefit corporation with a community of participants from all
over the world.
