 Dear Friends, [Apologies for possible
 duplications] We would like to bring to your
 attention the civil society call for expressions of interest
 to participate in the Global Conference on Cyberspace
 2015 (GCCS 2015) and a civil
 society pre-event, hosted by the government of the Kingdom
 of the Netherlands, and taking place in The Hague on 16 and
 17 April 2015. Following on from the London
 (2011), Budapest (2012), and Seoul (2013) Conferences, the
 2015 event in The Hague will provide an opportunity for
 strategic level discussion of key cyberspace issues. The
 Conference aims to examine core
 issues related to the cyber domain,
 structured around the three main themes of Freedom, Security and Growth. Focus will be placed on exchange
 of knowledge and ideas on these issues and the development
 of concrete solutions. The Conference will encourage
 multi-stakeholder participation from the worlds of business,
 academia as well as civil society. A day and a half civil society
 pre-event will take place in the run-up to the Conference
 (14-15 April) to facilitate civil society coordination and
 input into the main Conference. An in-depth training on
 cyber security issues will be offered as part of this
 pre-event. In addition, an online training curriculum will
 be made available to the wider public. The Conference
 organisers are interested in a balanced and diverse
 participation and in supporting those who will find a
 practical use for the training and attendance
 offered. The Expression of Interest Form, in
 addition to logging interest in attending the Conference and
 the civil society pre-event, will also serve as a platform
 to capture requests for financial support. Limited financial
 support is available for a number of civil society
 participants. In order to be considered as a
 Conference/pre-event participant and/or a candidate for
 financial support, please fill in the Expression of Interest
 Form via the following link by January
 30:https://www.gccs2015.com/civil-society-participation-form Expressions of interest and
 requests for funding received will be evaluated by an ad
 hoc Advisory Board set up to assist the
 organizers of the Conference in selecting civil society
 participants to receive funding and to attend the GCCS2015
 and the civil society pre-event, to help ensure that the
 Conference is as inclusive and representative as
 possible. Criteria for financial support are
 designed to ensure a diverse spread of applicants is
 achieved, focussing on global south applicants and aimed at
 securing a balance of gender, regional diversity and level
 of experience in cyber security issues. Please feel free to share this
 information with your networks. Best wishes, On behalf of:Andrew Puddephatt, Evelien
 Wijkstra, Tim MaurerAdvisory Board
