IG Hub

From ICANNWiki
Revision as of 17:04, 14 August 2017 by Gmcknight (talk | contribs)

The IG Hub is currently under development. When completed, it will serve as a repository of opportunities, such as Fellowships, Calls for Proposals, Job Openings, SIGs and other courses. It will draw from various sources across the community and will largely be sourced and updated through the members of IG Hubs on WhatsApp and Facebook.

How can we improve categorization and organization? Which categories need subsections?
