Description
APRALO Policy Forum to be a modest but useful kickstart to facilitate and coordinate ICANN policy-related discussions at a regional level.
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 thisPurpose:

Purpose: To improve the transparency and consistency of the Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) table review process to facilitate the registry operations of new gTLDs, ICANN has developed additional reference IDN tables in machine-readable format, called reference Label Generation Rulesets (LGRs) for the second level. The reference IDN tables are based on the Guidelines for Developing Reference Label Generation Rules (LGRs), which were finalized after community review. These reference LGRs will be used in reviewing IDN tables submitted by the gTLD registries, e.g. through the Registry Service Evaluation Policy (RSEP) process.
Current Status: ICANN org had published reference second-level LGRs for multiple languages. Additional reference LGRs have been developed based on the detailed analysis and finalized solutions by the script community for the Root Zone Label Generation Rules (RZ-LGRs). Seventeen (17) LGRs are being released for Public Comment including Bangla, Devanagari, Ethiopic, Georgian, Gujarati, Gurmukhi, Kannada, Khmer, Lao, Malayalam, Oriya, Tamil and Telugu script-based LGRs, and Arabic, Chinese, Hindi, and Thai language-based LGRs.
Next Steps: Based on the community input, these reference LGRs will be finalized and published for the use of gTLD registry operators to consult while they design their IDN tables. These reference LGRs will also be used in reviewing the IDN tables submitted by the gTLD registries.
Particular Focus for APRALO: Possible risk of confusion to individual end-users through use of visually similar multi-lingual scripts in domain names at the second level

label | DNS Abuse Education Campaign (2020-2021) |
...
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. 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 as or regional liaisons to this campaign.
