4.2, 4.2.1, 4.2.2, 4.2.3, 4.6

Make available to each ALS a Confluence page for two-way communication with ICANN (for example, see AFRALO ALS Confluence pages).

4.2, 4.2.1, 4.2.2, 4.2.3, 4.6

Completed

Make available to each ALS the use of an Adobe Connect Room for meetings, etc. (for example, see AFRALO ALS Adobe Connect Room).

4

4.2, 4.2.1, 4.2.2, 4.2.3, 4.6

Completed

Request that selected At-Large members be funded to attend non-ICANN meetings (e.g., the IGF, the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), etc.).

The ALAC made this request for FY11, but it was not approved. 

This request is supported by the fact that At-Large should constitute an essential part of ICANN's global outreach process.

4

4.3, 4.3.1, 4.3.1.1, 4.3.2, 4.6

In progress

Request that the ALAC be invited and funded to participate in all outreach programs launched by ICANN (including the New gTLD Program outreach road show). 

In accepting such invitations, the ALAC should be given the option to send At-Large members as representatives who are located within the region of the specific outreach event.

This request is supported by the fact that At-Large should constitute an essential part of ICANN's global outreach process.

4.3, 4.3.1, 4.3.1.1, 4.3.2, 4.6

Must begin

Invite potential At-Large members from countries currently without any ALS to a series of outreach teleconferences aimed at reaching the goal of having at least one ALS in every country.

4.3, 4.3.1, 4.3.1.1, 4.3.2, 4.6

Must begin

Recommend that each RALO start an individual member program.

This proposal is scheduled for further discussion in the Regional Leadership Meeting in Dakar.

4.3, 4.3.1, 4.3.1.1, 4.3.2, 4.4, 4.6

In progress

Continue collaborating with ICANN Communications on Beginner’s Guides devoted to topics relevant to At-Large.

The goal should be to produce one Guide for each ICANN Public Meeting. 

This Beginner’s Guide series was initiated by At-Large.  In close collaboration with ICANN Communications, At-Large has already co-produced a Beginner’s Guide to Domain Names and Beginner’s Guide to Internet Protocol (IP) Addresses.  Two more are currently in the pipeline.

4

4.3, 4.3.3, 4.6

In progress

Recommend to the RALOs that they formalize their outreach/“inreach” role in whatever way each finds appropriate (e.g., by including in their Rules of Procedure).

4

4.3, 4.3.4, 4.6

In progress

Increase significantly the ALAC’s creation of “inreach” materials aimed at leadership engagement and development throughout At-Large (including brochures, radio programs, podcasts, webinars, and online videos).

For examples of work in progress, see At-Large and RALO Brochures

4

4.5, 4.5.1, 4.6

In progress

Create job descriptions for ALAC members, liaisons and other At-Large leaders that include qualification requirements, responsibilities and objective criteria for performance evaluation.

For work in progress, see Resolution on Position Description for ALAC Members and ALAC Liaisons.

4

4.5, 4.5.1, 4.6

In progress

Create and implement a transparent sanctions process for nonperformance of ALAC, RALO and ALS members. 

The relevant metrics and sanctions should be consistent across all RALOs.  The sanctions should be progressive, including the withholding of travel support and ending with the replacement of the member. 

4

4.5, 4.5.2, 4.5.3, 4.5.5, 4.6

In progress

Create, in collaboration with ICANN’s Nominating Committee (NomCom), a process for the midterm replacement both of NomCom appointments to the ALAC and of ALAC appointments to the NomCom.
