Today, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is opening the application round for its Community Childcare Grants Program for ICANN79 in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The program facilitates in-person participation of community members with children who are 12 years old or younger at ICANN Public Meetings and eligible ICANN events.
Grants of up to $750 per family are available for ICANN Public Meeting participants who meet the criteria, are bringing children, and will incur expenses associated with babysitting and/or local childcare services. There will be no on-site meeting or conference-sponsored childcare services during ICANN79.
The deadline to apply for the ICANN79 grant is Friday, 26 January 2024, at 23:59 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The application form is available on the dedicated webpage.
