At the beginning of the last month of this year Sandra and Wolf participated at a meeting of the European Internet Foundation (EIF) in Brussels to intensify contacts with European Members of Parliament (MEP) on behalf of EuroDIG and EURALO. Some of our members participated at the World Conference on International Telecommunications (WCIT-12) in Dubai/UAE, from 3-14 December 2012 – Wolfgang Kleinwächter (German delegation), Olivier Crepin-Leblond (UK delegation), Bill Drake (US delegation) and Avri Doria (WTSA delegation). This shows again the level of expertise assembled at EURALO. At its last monthly call of the year EURALO started with planning of the next year, in particular the next ICANN supported F2F General Assembly (GA) early June 2013 in Lisbon – in line with EuroDIG 2013 - and other forthcoming challenges. Finally and at the end of the year we note with pleasure that we received three new ALS applications from Germany, Switzerland and Bulgaria – the DD procedure will be conducted over the next weeks.

As stated in the last report, EURALO was well represented at the 7th IGF in Baku with various activities. Wolf drafted a planning (master plan) for our 2013 GA in line with the next EuroDIG early June in Lisbon what will be supported and funded by ICANN again. The planning for Lisbon will be discussed during our next monthly calls to be adopted by the end of year. As the next GA will be the first F2F members meeting after Mexico-City in March 2009, it will be a major challenge for EURALO to invite and mobilize as many of its members as possible for Lisbon and to improve regular participation of its ALSes. By the end of month, we received another ALS application from dotHIV, a non-profit network based in Berlin, Germany.
