Description 

In late 2019, the APRALO Leadership Team proposed the initiation of an APRALO Policy Platform for 2020. After reviewing input from RALO members to the proposal and in light of the unexpected COVID-19 pandemic, the Leadership Team considers this APRALO Policy Forum to be a modest but useful kickstart to facilitate and coordinate ICANN policy-related discussions at a regional level.

Purpose:

The APRALO Policy Forum seeks to:

  • Facilitate informed, inclusive regional position development on issues within ICANN's remit
  • Support APRALO Leadership's participation as a regional partner to the ALAC Policy Platform

Membership:

Open to all APRALO members interested in ICANN policy-related discussions, by subscription to the mailing list. The membership list is published below.

Operation:

To begin with, this Policy Forum will be facilitated using this work space and the apralo-policy@icann.org mailing list which will be moderated by members of the Leadership Team and supported by At-Large Staff. The ICANN Expected Standards of Behaviour will apply.

The At-Large Community and DNS Abuse: An Individual User Education Campaign 

Background: During ICANN 67, the ALAC committed to a two-pronged strategy with regards to DNS Abuse. First, we would play a leadership role in promoting the necessary dialog, within the ICANN community, needed for reforms to ICANN policy, additional tools for ICANN Contract Compliance and best practices of all parties. The second prong, to which we have committed, is an education campaign, designed to alert our constituency, individual end users, to the dangers of DNS abuse and strategies to protect themselves.

It was proposed that representatives from each of the RALOs will discuss:

  • Existing regional efforts already underway including available resources and lessons learned
  • Additional resources (videos, flyers, etc.) that are necessary to enhance outreach on this topic
  • Creative ways to get these resources in front of as many individual ends users around the world as possible
  • Potential metrics to evaluate each of these efforts to allow for program assessment and refinement

Current Status: This is the follow on action, marking the first of many onward discussions, necessary to launch a large scale education campaign on DNS Abuse.

Next Steps: Each RALO to identify a representative to this discussion during ICANN69. That representative should come prepared with an understanding of what resources of which they are aware, which ones are being developed already by local organizations (ISOC, RALOs and other regional organizations) and what additional materials they believe are needed in their region. They should be prepared to brainstorm on how best to organize this effort at the regional level, once materials are identified; in other words:

  • Should we identify a standard set of resources and then have the RALOs supplement them with regional flavor?
  • Should this effort be parked as Capacity Building or Outreach?

The goal is to establish a group to work on this topic going forward, 

Particular Focus for APRALO: To identify one or more representatives to act as our regional liaisons to this campaign and to help collate relevant information currently available with our region as our input.
