August 2017

With the CROP FY18 wiki open, the RALO Outreach Strategic Plans for FY18 page was updated and content migrated to the CROP wiki. APRALO, LACRALO and NARALO have approved plans with EURALO and AFRALO with draft plans circulated for comment.
the ALAC Subcommittee on Outreach and Engagement main wiki was cleaned up and reorganised to make the O&E WG easier to understand and better able to navigate. A goal was to try to make the wiki page load properly on mobile devices without extensive macros that would require "rendering" and reloads to see content. ICANN has updated the Confluence wiki version that powers the wiki and I believe done some tweaks for users on mobile devices. Content was also reorganised with 5 main sections under the O&E main page
- ALAC Subcommittee on Outreach and Engagement Meetings
- ALAC Subcommittee on Outreach and Engagement Monthly Reports
- At-Large Outreach and Engagement Workspace
- ALAC Subcommittee on Outreach and Engagement - Previous Members
- At Large Outreach and Engagement Document Workspace
Content under these main sections were reorganised. For example, under the At-Large Outreach and Engagement Workspace page:
- grouped the IGF and budget proposals under "Outreach and Engagement Budget and IGF Proposals" ;
- grouped the separate RALO Outreach plans for FY16,FY17 etc under "RALO Outreach Strategic Plans by Year"
- grouped the separate Outreach activities pages at ICANN56,57,58, etc under "Outreach Activities at ICANN meetings"
- moved the "Presentation on Introduction to At-Large" under Community Onboarding
O&E call tentatively scheduled for Tuesday August 28 with the following tentative agenda:
- 1) Outreach at IGF2017 - discussion of O&E proposal for IGF
- 2) Onboarding Documentation - how to advance the work
- 3) Outreach observations at ICANN59
- 4) Outreach at ICANN60
- 5) AoB
  
  .

The Outreach and Engagement SC held a session at ICANN59 - here's a link to the presentation : Introduction to Outreach and Engagement ICANN59 June 2017.pdf

May 2017

Throughout the month, we've promoted the At-Large Community Onboarding approach to all of the RALO monthly calls and the RALO secretariat call.

We've created a RALO Outreach Strategic Plans for FY18 page for RALOs to begin planning their RALO outreach strategies for the upcoming Community Regional Outreach Program (CROP - formerly CROPP, but losing the Pilot status) - Outreach plans need to be approved by regional GSE in order for trip proposals to be submitted for approval by At-Large and GSE at least 7 weeks before such travel takes place. Therefore outreach plans needs to be approved by early June 2017 in order for CROP proposals to be submitted for travel in mid July 2017 and August 2017.

Work on At-Large Community Onboarding ongoing - two new documents will be added in addition to the refinement of the 3 onboarding documents:
