><br>> Dear all,<br>><br>><br>><br>> As previously announced on that list, this is the most recent information<br>> regarding the opportunities of fellowships for civil society participants<br>> in<br>
> the upcoming 11th session of the Commission on Science and Technology for<br>> Development, 26-30 May 2008 (in the UNCTAD jargon, sponsored CS<br>> participants<br>> are called procedure of invited meeting participants).<br>
><br>><br>><br>> The sponsorship procedure will allow around 12 civil society participants<br>> to<br>> be funded for their participation in the CSTD. This process is reserved<br>> for<br>> NGO and civil society representatives from developing countries and<br>
> countries with economies in transition. The support for invited<br>> participants<br>> in the CTSD-11 will include an invitation letter to attend the 11th<br>> session<br>> of the CSTD, an economy class ticket and the normal UN Duty station<br>
> allowance for Geneva for the duration of the CSTD session.<br>><br>><br>><br>> In this regard, note that the daily allowance in Geneva as practiced<br>> within<br>> UNCATD is quite high so that civil society participants requesting this<br>
> fellowship could easily opt for a reasonable price hotel / accommodation<br>> in<br>> Geneva and arrive in Geneva earlier for the beginning of the cluster of<br>> WSIS<br>> related meetings (Action Line Facilitation process and IGF Open<br>
> consultation, see updated calendar at<br>> <a href="http://www.csbureau.info/posttunis.htm">http://www.csbureau.info/posttunis.htm</a>), and therefore maximizing the use<br>> of<br>> he fellowship beyond the time of the CSTD session alone.<br>
><br>><br>><br>> Representatives of NGOs in Consultative Status with ECOSOC and of civil<br>> society entities accredited to WSIS are eligible for requesting a<br>> fellowship.<br>><br>><br>><br>
> Other criteria and conditions are precisely spelled out in the attached<br>> announcement.<br>><br>><br>><br>> Deadline: The deadline for submission of the fellowship request is Tuesday<br>> 1<br>> April 2008.<br>
><br>> The nomination form should be sent back at the following e-mail address:<br>><br>> <a href="mailto:cstd-csparticipation@unctad.org">cstd-csparticipation@unctad.org</a><br>><br>><br>><br>> NOTE THAT REQUESTS FOR SPONSORSHIP FOR CIVIL SOCIETY REPRESENTATIVES - and<br>
> therefore their final repartition - WILL BE PROCESSED BY THE CTSD<br>> SECRETARIAT HOSTED BY UNCTAD and not by me or my organisation (CONGO).<br>><br>><br>><br>> Please circulate this information to your networks.<br>
><br>><br>><br>> Feel free to get back to us for any question or request for additional<br>> information: we would be happy to liaise with the CTSD Secretariat.<br>><br>><br>><br>> I'll send in a few minutes additional information on the drafting process<br>
