ALAC | Maureen Hilyard | Access by RALOs for Funding of Local Engagement Activities | The FY18 and FY19 ABR requests for RALO Discretionary Funding have shown to be extremely useful and effective for the RALOs within the At-Large community. Thus, for FY20 the ALAC requests that each of the five RALO’s be given access up to $6,000 each for targeted discretionary funds to permit the support of such activities as catering, meeting room rental for such activities as At-Large Structure read out sessions, registration fees, displays, graphics and travel within their region – as well as one cross-regional activity. As shown by the number of useful activities requested and approved to date in the implementation of the similar FY19 ABR and the FY18 ABR, it is clear that opportunities exist for At-Large members to do local, regional and even international outreach and engagement about ICANN and ICANN policy related issues. The incremental increase being requested for FY20 would allow continued support for outreach and engagement activities during the critical time of the At-Large Review implementation. In particular, as outlined in the At-Large Review Implementation Plan, high priority Issue 2 which focuses on the development of more ‘Individuals’ from throughout At-Large as contributors to Policy work and Leadership roles, would benefit significantly from the ability of At-Large members to have access to funds for outreach and engagement. Giving the RALOs the ability to identify outreach engagement activities which they can self-organize provides ICANN and the At-Large Structures with an efficient local team that is knowledgeable on ICANN policies. This results in grass-roots awareness-raising of ICANN in communities that are key for At-Large and ICANN. This project saw year on year significant increase in the number of requests and successfully implemented local events. An additional year of ABR funding would allow this program to build on its success in allowing RALOs and At-Large Structures to reach out to and engage with local, regional and even international communities. This request is being made to ensure At-Large Structures may continue to engage in outreach and engagement activities, including travel., with the assumption that the CROP will remain reduced in the final FY20 Budget. | |||

ALAC Subcommittee on Outreach and Engagement | Daniel Nanghaka | At-Large Global Capacity Building at IGF Berlin | The proposal is for organizing an effective and coordinated At-Large activity during IGF Berlin on November 25-29, 2019 which is a premier global event targeting global stakeholders in the Internet Ecosystem. The aim is an improved coordination of At-Large and other ICANN participants to promote and heighten brand awareness of ICANN-ALAC-At-Large with banners, posters, brochures and giveaways that help to raise general awareness but which also attract attention and invite people to ask questions about ICANN-ALAC-At-Large and their global and regional activities, as well as how they may get involved. . The request is for Six members of At-Large Outreach and Engagement WG (or their substitutes) who are actively involved with the IGF community events and specifically the IGF Berlin event, committed to time at the At-Large booth and confirmed as speakers, moderators or reporters for various MAG-accepted IGF workshop/panel sessions. The team of 6 will enhance the ratio outreach to the over 2900 delegates anticipated to be present at the IGF. Furthermore, with over 2900 participants at the IGF gives an opportunity for a strong outreach team to the IGF in Berlin, with special interest that a session proposal will be submitted and furthermore reach out to potential individual members to join At-Large with expectations that they will be active participants in the ICANN PDPs. Support being requested: Capacity Building, Education/Training, Travel Support, Meeting We request for 6 travel slots for O&E leadership to match reaching out to the over 2900 members or delegates at the IGF Berlin via the daily trade show booth, workshops and social events We also look forward to add value and support to the GSE outreach and engagement programs at the IGF through constant collaboration. |
