ICANNWiki Volunteer Toolkit

Thank you for your interest in ICANNWiki. ICANNWiki is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to supporting the Internet community's collaborative development of wiki articles on ICANN and Internet Governance-related topics. The wiki provides neutral, third-party information for ICANN meeting attendees and Internet citizens at large. It is an open platform governed by wiki values, such as Neutral Point of View, transparency, assuming good faith, and building together. The project is independent of ICANN.

Our work focuses on three main areas:

1. ICANN Meetings (booth presence, Newcomer Day presentations, Edit-a-thon and Edit-a-thon Reception Dinner)
2. Content Creation (this site, infographics and more)
3. Community and Capacity Building (Regional Translation Initiatives, ICANNWiki giveaways and Edit-a-thons)

To famliarize yourself more intimately with the project, we suggest you read the ICANNWiki article on this site.

Since you'll be volunteering with ICANNWiki during a conference, this page is here to make things a little easier for you on your journey. Let's focus on what ICANNWiki does at each conference.

Booth Presence

ICANN has graciously provided a booth for ICANNWiki, and this space is usually located within close proximity to the ICANN Information booth. Each conference, ICANN chooses two volunteers to maintain their booth space. We will introduce you to these volunteers as they can be useful in your orientation within the ICANN space.

Time in the ICANNWiki booth can be fun and sometimes fast-paced. Our booth is a highly-trafficked one, and an outgoing and knowledgable presence is needed.
