GNSO PDP WG Chairs Support Project

This is the resources page for the GNSO PDP WG Chairs Support Project. Travel support for PDP WG chairs was first piloted in FY18, when the ICANN Board approved the GNSO Council’s additional budget request for the GNSO Policy Development Process (PDP) Working Group (WG) Chairs (Leadership Team) Support Pilot Project. Noting the success of the pilot, the GNSO Council submitted an Additional Budget Request in FY19 and FY20. This funding is now provided through ICANN’s annual budget.
