The next one is scheduled on Monday, 6 September, 10:00-11:30 CEST and will focus on sustainability in the digital world. We have seen this topic pop up in many regional and global events and generate significant interest and discussion.

The speakers are: - Ilias Iakovidis, Adviser at DG-CONNECT at the European Commission - Frederic Donck, President of DigitalGoes.green SEE 9 - 28 September -------------------- Don't forget to mark your calendars on Tuesday, 28 September when we will host SEE 9 - RIPE NCC's regional meeting in South East Europe.

SEE 9 Will Be a Virtual Meeting, 28 September 2021
by SEEurope 26 Jul '21

26 Jul '21

Dear colleagues, The RIPE NCC together with the SEE Programme Committee have decided that the SEE 9 Meeting will take place as a virtual meeting with a reduced programme on 28 September 2021. While we were looking forward to seeing you all in Ljubljana, we feel this is necessary to protect the health of all attendees and RIPE NCC staff. The situation around COVID-19 is still too uncertain and the risks appear too great to justify a physical meeting. We hope things will get better soon and that we will be able to meet in person for a physical SEE 10 Meeting in 2022. Updates on the meeting format, registration and programme will be posted closer to the date on this mailing list and on the SEE 9 website: https://www.ripe.net/see-9. For any further information and/or clarification, feel free to email <seeurope(a)ripe.net>. Looking forward to seeing you online! Best regards, SEE Meeting Organisation Team RIPE NCC

CPF, Vacancies, the IGF and Country Report
by Gergana Petrova 13 Jul '21

13 Jul '21

Hi all, I wanted to drop you a line with a few pieces of information that might be interesting. RIPE NCC Community Projects Fund - Apply by 31 July --------------------------------------------------- You can still apply for funding from the RIPE NCC Community Projects Fund until 31 July. We don't get many applications from SEE, so please think about it! The fund distributes up to EUR 250,000 a year to support projects of value to the operation, resilience and sustainability of the Internet, with a focus on tools and services benefitting the technical community in the Europe, the Middle East and Central Asia. If you have applied before and were rejected, I'd encourage you to apply again. The funds we have available are not enough to award all the projects we'd like to and we've sometimes awarded projects after several re-applications. https://www.ripe.net/support/cpf Vacancies at RIPE NCC --------------------- It's a bit more difficult to persuade talent to move countries during a pandemic, so at RIPE NCC we have quite a few vacancies open: - Research Engineer - Software/Data Engineer - Information Security Engineer Cloud - User Interface Engineer - Software Engineer https://www.ripe.net/about-us/staff/careers-at-the-ripe-ncc/first-section/c… IGF Youth Ambassador - Apply by 23 July --------------------------------------- This one is for 16 to 30 years olds. If applicable to you - great. If not, maybe you have children or nieces and nephews or other acquaintances that have both technical and political inclinations? The IGF (Internet Governance Forum) will take place on 6-10 December, probably in Katowice but also online. It is searching for Youth Policy Maker Ambassadors. It is a great chance to develop persuasive speaking, get to know people around the globe and get involved in Internet governance. Applications are accepted until 23 July: https://yigf.gi.de/en/formular A New Country Report -------------------- Check out our recent Country Report covering several countries in the Mediterranian (Greece, Italy, Spain, Portugal and France). Further down the page you can find the report on a few other countries in South East Europe that we published last year: https://labs.ripe.net/country-reports That's it from me. I hope you find this useful and I hope to see you soon virtually or otherwise. Have a nice day! Best regards, Gergana -- Gergana Petrova External Relations RIPE NCC
