Humberto carrasco:Hello
Barrack Otieno:AFRALO is currently discussing metrics that will measure member perfomances with the RALO
Barrack Otieno:the objective is to set minimum standards for ensuring that ALS's within the RALO are active
Judith Hellerstein:Yes that is correct
Silvia Vivanco:@ Barrack you are correct
Silvia Vivanco:so far each RALO does it ad-hoc
Barrack Otieno:indeed
Silvia Vivanco:no common benchmark for all RALOs
Nathalie Peregrine:Dev Anand Teelucksingh has joined the AC room
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Hello everyone
Humberto carrasco:Hi Dev
Alberto Soto:Hi Humberto
Humberto carrasco:HI alberto
Barrack Otieno:Siranush i have posted my comments
Maureen Hilyard:Hi all.. just connected to the Adobe but also on the phone bridge
Silvia Vivanco:Is there common criteria for all RALOs?
Silvia Vivanco:shall we have a common standard?
Barrack Otieno:i think it is possible
Barrack Otieno:since we have a common objective across the regions
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:it would be good to find some harmonisation across RALOS
Maureen Hilyard:@Silvia - Is this not what the ALS certification group will work on
Silvia Vivanco:@ Maureen I am not aware that this group is looking at decertification as well
Silvia Vivanco:but it may do that
Maureen Hilyard:True.. not sure what its brief is...
Humberto carrasco:That's is a good idea
Humberto carrasco:Silvia
Silvia Vivanco:Okay I will contact the Secretariats
Barrack Otieno:great thanks
Nathalie Peregrine:please allmute AC mics when not speaking
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:yes we can
Barrack Otieno:we can hear you
Barrack Otieno:Hi Jana
Evan Leibovitch:hi. sorry for the disconnections and reconnections
Barrack Otieno:interesting ideas
Barrack Otieno:i hope you can share the presentation with the Secretariats
Heidi Ullrich:@Barrack, we will be happy to share the slides
Barrack Otieno:indeed AFRALO is currently going through an exercise that will benefit greatly from this, thanks
Nathalie Peregrine:Link to Jana's video: http://visual.ly/causes
Silvia Vivanco:Thank you Nathalie
Humberto carrasco:Thanks, It good be god to have this presentation
Humberto carrasco:it would be good to have this presentation
Barrack Otieno:Jana, are flyers effective?
Barrack Otieno:or would you recommend social Media?
Silvia Vivanco:Thank you for your agreement re electronic means
Jana Juginovic:there are more effective pieces of content than flyers, not that printed materials should never be used
Jana Juginovic:flyers became dated very quickly
Evan Leibovitch:My personal benchmark for making difficult tech issues accessible to a lay population is the John Oliver video segment on Net Neutrality: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpbOEoRrHyU
Barrack Otieno:not sure whether including flyers in delegate packs is as effective as e-shots
Jana Juginovic:we suggest creating more visual content that could be used as printed material and digital platforms
Jana Juginovic:multi-use
Barrack Otieno:ok
Barrack Otieno:good point
Evan Leibovitch:It's all about the content. Visuals are compelling and bring people in, but the material itself has to be presented in a casual, maybe even humorous way.
Evan Leibovitch:Experiment: Next time each of you are at a family gathering, try to explain what you do in ICANN within five minutes.
Barrack Otieno::-)
Barrack Otieno:thats a mouthfull evan
Alberto Soto:@evan: five day??
Judith Hellerstein:I agree with Evan. People want smaller docs
Barrack Otieno:indeed
Judith Hellerstein:I really like the business card idea and it works well to give out to people and carry around
Humberto carrasco:yes
Maureen Hilyard:+1 to Evan for a cheaper version of getting people engaged with RALO activities and referring them to the website
Maureen Hilyard:Speaking more from APRALO perspective because we won't get an updated version till 2016
Siranush Vardanyan:back to adobe
Heidi Ullrich:So would you like to have the docment be postcard size?
Heidi Ullrich:or both?
Evan Leibovitch:It's almost like one side is a bold headline, the other side is the call to action.
Evan Leibovitch:I will send to Heidi examples of what ISOC Canada has done.
Heidi Ullrich:The Outreach Sub-Committee will be discussing this later today. We will provide feedback from this meeting.
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Good suggestion, Jana
Maureen Hilyard:Great idea Jana
Judith Hellerstein:@evan send a link to how the isoc canada cards look
Jana Juginovic:I'm canadian so proud that is the example
Silvia Vivanco:Post ATLAS II activities: https://community.icann.org/display/als2/Post-ATLAS+II+Activities+Workspace
Silvia Vivanco:Rec 28: The ALAC should work with all RALOs and ALSes to map the current expertise and interests in their membership, to identify Subject Matter Experts and facilitate policy communication.
Humberto carrasco:he did it
Silvia Vivanco:yes he did
Barrack Otieno:great
Silvia Vivanco:Rec 42: ICANN should enable annual face-to-face RALO assemblies, either at ICANN regional offices or in concert with regional events
Barrack Otieno:agreed Sylvia
Silvia Vivanco:Yes there is a need to report on progress
Barrack Otieno:we can hear you
Silvia Vivanco:and tick off recommendations as completed-in progress
Silvia Vivanco:or some sort of feedback
Evan Leibovitch:I know this is backtracking a bit... but I have a full license account for SurveyGizmo. I can duplicate Albert's survey for viewing and testing using that tool.
Siranush Vardanyan:https://community.icann.org/display/APRALO/APRALO+Monthly+Reports+2014
Evan Leibovitch:Silvia.... you .... are .... sounding ... very ... quiet
Silvia Vivanco:Its Heidi speaking
Alberto Soto:evan, ok, is better
Barrack Otieno:good suggestion
Evan Leibovitch:I know. I meant before when you were talking
Barrack Otieno:AFRALO will consider that
Silvia Vivanco:OH Ok I will speak closer to the phone
Heidi Ullrich:@Barrack, thanks!
Heidi Ullrich:good opportunity, I would think
Barrack Otieno:The CROPP Program is quite usefull, AFRALO leadership participated in the recent AFRINIC 21 meeting where it had a chance to contribute to ICANNs Africa Strategy as well as strengthen cooperation with the regional internet registry
Barrack Otieno:This was facilitated by the CROPP program
Maureen Hilyard:APRALO has also used the programme which facilitated APRALO leadership to participate in a Pacific event. Excellent for both the Cook Islands and for ICANN
