[DC] Doodle poll for the next DCCG Meeting #95

Wed Feb 19 04:42:14 EST 2025

Hello Friends:

If I could draw your attention to the chart, attached.

Reyansh, let's talk on Discord so we can address the consistent
accessibility inequalities without damaging your incredible efforts on the
G.A.M.E. I believe many DTC Friends have signed up for your project
already.

I previously sent Roman, Celine, and Anja a list of DTC Friends 25
Certificate Awardees who are signing up to the DC Planning list and IGF
Youth list after receiving significant IGF and DC specific education. I
hope you'll admit them whenever possible.

Warm Regards,
Stacy Gildenston
DTC Co-Chair
