 IN PROGRESS

 


Actions: 

:

  • Capacity Building WG and Technology Taskforce to work with ICANN IT to make the webinar recordings easy to replay and share 

Notes: 

  • There are a number of existing capacity building webinars, both At-Large wide and RALO specific 
  • Outreach & Engagement SC has been looking into such activities and efforts for engagement; Ideas for Engagement Strategies wiki page has been set up; the SC will discuss this issue in ICANN 54 
  • Capacity building should be more than online webinars. We should access RALOs and human capital for doing policy work and outreach. We should have some tools to engage membership and help them get involved. Staff should help hold more sessions to get more information about the inactive ALSes and learn about their interests. We need to adopt a gradual and systematic approach to engage the new and inactive ALSes. 
  • Judith Hellerstein and Glenn McKnight have identified a large group of ALSes who haven't attended any NARALO calls. They will reach out to them and conduct easy-flowing sessions to find out why they are inactive and give them an opportunity to ask questions. 
  • ALSes are often overwhelmed by emails and don't understand how to navigate the information and ways to get involved. To help ALSes understand ways to navigate through the overwhelming amount of information in At-Large can be one of the capacity building topics. 

:

  • It has been recognized that mentorship of new ALS representatives and the development of short tutorials (e.g. How to use Adobe Connect) can help dress he on-boarding challenges
  • Capacity building webinars can be leveraged to develop those tutorial/mentoring initiatives and educate newcomers and inactive At-Large members 
  • Pre-training of ALSes is important, including how to use Adobe Connect, etc., and they need to know that participate in teleconferences and webinars via AC is part of the ALS participation expectation
