Dear all,

Thanks a lot Marika for yesterday´s presentation on GNSO PDP improvementes.

I did not want to add more time to our meeting yesterday as we were late
but I would like to suggest something (on my personal capacity as I did not
discuss this yet) regarding the proposed "observer status" for WGs:

I believe we can work together with the *Fellowship program*, and maybe
propose to add as part of the fellowship experience, the need to
participate in at least one working group *as observer* to be elegible for
subsequent rounds of the fellowship program (and why not report to the
other fellows on the experience... or something in that line that would
also offer for us feedback from newcomers to be able to use to keep
improving). Just thinking while writing... As fellows, we are asked to do a
report on the fellowship experience, after each meeting, to be elegible for
next rounds, so this can be easily added to a "package" of what is
currently required.

I believe this experience of being an observer in a working group will make
more tangible part of the learning process for the fellows and will benefit
the community in the process. (with feedback from newcomers to help us
improve + potential new valuable members for future pool of active
participants)

We did a special session with fellows in Singapore together with Amr on PDP
Wgs participation, and many fellows showed interest in the working groups.
I am confident that offering to them the chance to be an observer might be
well received and productive in terms of capacity building and engagement.

Just to share the current impact of the Fellowship Program in terms of
engaged participants, here are some statistics; 19 Fellows in GAC including
Vice Chair Tracy Hackshaw, At Large now has a Fellow Chair and Vice Chair
