General Program Questions
Why is the program now called CROP rather than CROPP? Toggle Cloak
Cloak |
---|
Answer: Following another successful implementation of the Community Regional Outreach Pilot Program (CROPP) in FY17, the “pilot” program label has been removed and the activity has been moved to the Policy Development Support budget as part of the core activities to be coordinated by that staff in collaboration with the Global Stakeholder Engagement (GSE) team. The program will therefore be called Community Regional Outreach Program, removing the word "pilot" from its title. |
Outreach Strategy Plan Questions
My organization completed an Outreach Strategic Plan for CROPP-FY17. Can we just reuse it for FY18's program? Toggle Cloak

Answer: It is understood that certain elements of the Outreach Strategic Plan may be replicated for the next fiscal cycle; however, the content should be based upon a fresh perspective as to outreach goals, plans, and objectives and, where applicable, it should dovetail with Global Stakeholder Engagement (GSE) regional strategies. In every case, a new Outreach Strategic Plan template must be completed including confirmations and approvals per the |
Can the CROP forms/templates be completed before the Outreach Strategic Plan is submitted and approved? Toggle Cloak

Answer: Yes, the templates may be completed at any time; however, no action (e.g., travel booking) will be taken officially until the Outreach Strategic Plan has secured all of its confirmations and approvals. |
Policies/Guidelines Questions

Answer: In efforts to ensure that ICANN supported travelers and ICANN Staff have the same expectations of service deliverables, the following explains why we have instituted a 6 week requirement for fully approved CROP proposals to be provided to the Travel team. We understand that some travel arrangements can be done quickly, others are more complex. A consistent time frame ensures equal treatment for all travelers in a transparent manner.

Answer: After testing a pilot outreach event capability in FY17, the CROP program will revert to focusing on regional travel for all eligible communities, rather than outreach events. All communities will be able to target five individual regional trips and include up to one out of region trip for FY18 to maximize their outreach and engagement opportunities. |

Answer: After thorough assessment of the CROP program in its 4 consecutive pilot years and in consultation with the 5 GNSO Constituencies eligible to utilize the program, ICANN Org has modified the program criteria to further maximize the community's outreach and engagement activities. In some cases, regional travellers aren't available to conduct outreach activities due to a lack of representation within a certain region. This new provision will therefore allow GNSO Constituencies to conduct outreach even within regions they aren't currently represented in. |
