Issue 9 Dashboard and Progress Chart

Final Proposal as approved by the Board

The ALAC will request additional staff skill development in the area of social media, and to work cooperatively with ICANN Communications social media specialists.

Prioritization

2:2:2 (Medium needs : Medium risk :  2nd priority)

ARIWG comments

This task is related to Activity Item #8 about using social media to assist At-Large with its outreach attempts to attract more participants into our policy development areas and how we can do this more effectively. Also linked to Capacity Building Program as a transversal objective to build O&E, besides disseminating information.

Regional members produce newsletters about local regional events and issues. At-Large policy inputs into these monthly information sheets from the CPWG would ensure a consistent information pathway to better understanding of the status of relevant policy advice from the At-Large community.

ICANN communication specialists are  unfortunately not social media specialists.  ARIWG agrees there is a need to well-designed capacity building program for staff only on social media engagements.  Noting the need for communications experts who don't speak ICANNese and who can package the message in a way that the end user can relate to it.  

Status of improvement effort / staff lead

If resourcing for specialist staff training can be sourced, then it is proposed that such training be complemented at the next At-Large Staff Face to Face meeting opportunity early in 2019 / Heidi Ullrich is staff lead with Evin Erdogdu.

Already executed;  Comms Policy Liaison contacted, Heidi Ullrich to work with LA-based Comms Director, Evin Erdoğdu work with MEA-based Comms Director.
