Hello Again!

Warm greetings to all - I have exciting news: Our 5^th Annual Indigenous 
Connectivity Summit (ICS) 2021 Registration is now OPEN! 
<https://isoc.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJMldemsqzsiGtIjK5LEJKb4mTyJESkT28IA> 


The Pre-Summit Trainings are starting very soon, *7 Sep - 12 Oct 2021, 
*taking place over the six weeks leading up to** the ICS Summit, *12-15 
October 2021*.

*Register today for both the Pre-Summit Trainings and the ICS 2021 here 
<https://isoc.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJMldemsqzsiGtIjK5LEJKb4mTyJESkT28IA>.*

Due to the ongoing pandemic, the Indigenous Connectivity Summit 2021 
(ICS) 
<https://www.internetsociety.org/events/indigenous-connectivity-summit/2021/> 
will once again take place online to discuss ways to ensure Alaska 
Native, American Indian, Inuit, Native Hawaiian, First Nations, and 
Métis communities have affordable, high-quality, and sustainable 
Internet access—and how it can support social and economic development. 
The ICS 2021 Agenda 
<https://www.internetsociety.org/events/indigenous-connectivity-summit/2021/agenda/> 
is filled to the brim with exciting sessions. The ICS 2021 will be a 
collaborative space to build partnerships, share powerful examples of 
Indigenous-led projects, engage in robust dialogue, enjoy Indigenous 
artwork, music and film, and work together to develop the ICS 2021 
policy recommendations to support Indigenous connectivity efforts going 
forward

Participants of ICS 2021 can also join the Community Networks and/or 
Policy and Advocacy Trainings 
<https://www.internetsociety.org/events/indigenous-connectivity-summit/2021/trainings/> 
which offer two practical, hands-on training tracks on how Indigenous 
communities can build their own connectivity and how to advocate for 
access solutions and digital policy needs in Indigenous communities 
across Canada and the United States. The trainings take place weekly 7 
September - 12 October 2021 leading up to the main ICS , and will 
preview the robust, in-depth conversations that will happen at the summit.

Find out more about ICS 2021 (12- 15 October 2021) here 
<https://www.internetsociety.org/events/indigenous-connectivity-summit/2021/> 
and the ICS Pre-Summit Trainings (7 September - 12 October 2021) here 
<https://www.internetsociety.org/events/indigenous-connectivity-summit/2021/trainings/>.
