| Y various | Y see hyperlinked text. | Recommendation 16 from the 2nd At-Large Review, relates to the establishment and collection of consistent performance metrics; in its implementation planning the ALAC noted that regarding this matter ' ...The ALAC has had a Metrics WG and an ALS Review Taskforce, both of which largely went into stasis during the IANA Transition and Accountability efforts. It proposed to revive this activity as part of the At-Large Review Implementation.' The ALAC noted further '...that regional differences make it more difficult to have uniformity over participation metrics, but agrees that is an important target. The ALAC notes that collecting such statistics is a staff-intensive operation.' The ALAC was advised that there was an opportunity to streamline some aspects of metrics data capture and reporting with the planned ICANN.org implementation of a CRM tool once this tool was eventually rolled out to At-Large it was envisaged that implementation planning would be '... Nine months to design, staff and newly constituted ALAC Metrics WG and then ongoing, with a checkpoint one year after collection starts, all presuming availability of staff resources. ' A current challenge is that the proposed CRM tool was never rolled out to At-Large and we are unaware of any non intensive staff input option that exists for use at this time, yet there are still useful baseline data being captured regarding attendance at meetings and calls etc., A current improvement note is that since this outstanding matter was held 'in stasis' most if not all Regional At-Large Organizations (RALOs) have reviewed or are reviewing their Rules to incorporate the recommendations from the ALS and UIM Mobilization WG's both sets of recommendations clarified and established baseline expectations and performance metrics for At-Large; some setting in their reviewed Rules additional and often harmonized with other RALO Rules sections or adjuncts on 'Metrics' and several are also starting to collect and report on, in various ad lib and ad hoc ways, statistics around performance. This will be useful for later harmonization and activity improvement efforts. |

3. APRALO General Assembly (GA) The APRALO GA is usually organized as a face-to-face or hybrid activity that brings together all the active members of APRALO. It is organized once about 5 years. The last GA was organized in Sep 2023 at Istanbul. | Y Ad Hoc WG | Y | 3. Examples of Challenges:
3. Examples of Improvements APRALO General Assemblies, including the last one in 2023 at Istanbul, allows the APRALO community to re-orient itself to the evolving challenges that the ICANN At-Large Community faces. Specifically, the 2023 GA achieved the following:
