ICANN Fellow refers to an individual who is a member of the Internet community and recipient of a grant provided by the ICANN Fellowship Program. The ICANN Fellowship Program provides financial grants to 25-42 eligible individuals to attend a given ICANN meeting as to actively contribute to ICANN processes, the Multistakeholder Model and to become part of the future leaders of the Internet governing body. The grant covers the economy class airfare, hotel accommodation, and a stipend needed to attend an ICANN conference. An effort is made to include more fellows from the region a given meeting is being held in.
The ICANN Fellowship Programs aims to achieve the following objectives:
- Strengthen the knowledge base of ICANN constituents by reaching out to less economically developed countries
- Build the capacity of existing ICANN constituency groups
- Increase the awareness of the ICANN Fellows about the latest issues affecting the Internet community worldwide
- Encourage the ICANN Fellows to become more active in their respective countries to help in the development of the Internet for the future
- Encourage the alumni of the Fellowship Program to serve as the new voice of experience in the future
