 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.

 APRALO Webinar on Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) (2021)

Background: At its May 2021 meeting, the GNSO Council resolved to initiate the Expedited Policy Development Process on Internationalized Domain Names (EPDP on IDNs) and to approve the EPDP Team Charter. The Council agreed that an EPDP was appropriate and needed to address the topic of IDNs because policy in IDNs has been "substantially scoped previously such that extensive, pertinent background information already exists", which includes the IDN-related Outputs from the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP that the Council had approved on at its February 2021 meeting. The EPDP on IDNs has been structured as a "Representative + Open" model and a call for members, participants and observers was made by the GNSO Secretariat on 3 June 2021.  At-Large Staff then issued a call for At-Large member expressions of interest for the ALAC Appointee Selection Committee to consider and to select 3 members to represent the ALAC on this EPDP.

To encourage APRALO Members (both ALS Members and Individual Members) with an interest in IDNs to respond to both the At-Large call for members and the GNSO's call for participants and observers volunteers to this EPDP on IDNs, the APRALO Policy Forum Co-Chairs Satish Babu and Justine Chew are spearheading the organization of an introductory APRALO Webinar on IDNs to help build the capacity of our RALO members to engage meaningfully in the work of this EPDP.

In service of this goal, the webinar will be held on Tuesday, 27 July 2021 at 08:00 UTC for 90 minutes and will, among other things, broadly address the following: 

  • When IDNs were introduced to the Root Zone
  • The landscape of IDNs in the APAC region
  • Existing policies and procedures on IDNs including the Root Zone Label Generation Rules (RZ-LGRs) in addressing security/confusability in IDNs
  • An overview on IDN Variant TLD management (in context of the ICANN Board's 2010 resolution on need for variant management solution to be in place prior to next round of New gTLDs)
  • An overview on the GNSO Subsequent Procedures policy recommendations for the next round of IDN New gTLD applications 
  • Background to the EPDP on IDNs 

Status: Completed. A recording of the webinar, along with speaker presentations are available at https://community.icann.org/x/x4n8CQ
