ICANN’s babysitting fund goes live
ICANN has started accepting applications for its childcare grants program.
As previously reported, ICANN plans to offer up to $750 per family to community members who have no choice but to show up to its meetings with their offspring in tow.
The money is designed to cover childcare costs while the parent attends sessions at ICANN’s thrice-yearly public meetings.
ICANN will not be providing any on-site childcare itself, nor will it approve any providers.
The program is in a pilot, covering the next three meetings.
The current application period, for ICANN 67 in Cancun, Mexico next March, runs until November 20. The application form wouldn’t open for me.
