Participants' Post-Event Comments:

"For someone who is fairly new to direct ICANN activities, “Let’s Talk About GNSO PDP 3.0” fireside chat was immensely resourceful,  providing a scoop of encouragement to embark into policy development. Not only did it inform on the various technicalities within the PDP, but also motivated us to be patient, speak up and survive the tedious task and time revolving around policy discussion and implementation. Both Cheryl  and Justine were great resources, opening their vault of priceless experiences with us. I believe conversations like these are great initiatives for outreach and engagement within and beyond the ICANN community. "  ~ Samik Kharel

"I would like to commend APRALO's Fireside Chat on GNSO PDP 3.0. It was great listening to Cheryl Landon Or a Policy Development Process Guru in my humble opinion talk about what it takes to participate in ICANN processes moreso the GNSO PDP 3.0. My take home was her call to action, if you subscribe to a policy process be active , otherwise sign up as an observer. The session was very insightful, i look forward to future sessions."   ~ Barrack Otieno

"This is a necessary initiative that will help the community overcome the gap in knowledge and engagement that was accumulated over the online-only era. One potential improvement could be the addition of a third member to the panel to focus solely on community interaction, while the host focuses on engaging with the guest.  That would optimize both fronts of interaction."   ~ Mark Datysgeld
