This Workspace has been created to assist the ALAC/At-Large community in developing FY19 Additional Budget Request proposals. The Finance and Budget Sub-committee (FBSC) will review all proposals submitted and will agree on which to submit to ICANN on behalf of the ALAC.
FY19 ALAC Criteria for Additional Budget Requests: (TBC)
- Outreach should not be a major focus. Activities to improve engagement with existing members is encouraged.
- If any request is made on outreach, it should probably go through the CROPP program and not this special request process.
- Proposals should include ways in which will make the ALAC and/or the At-Large community more effective and develop the At-Large community.
- RALO requests must go through a bottom up process within their RALO prior to being submitted for consideration by the FBSC.
- RALOs should consider the General Assembly/Summit timeline (APRALO is scheduled for requesting a General Assembly during FY18)
- They must be explicitly supported by the RALO representative on the FBSC.
- Staff is currently expecting that basic resources for community communications/printing will be supported through the core ICANN budget, but that community proposals for printing , etc. will be accepted as a back-up in case expectations change. Specific proposals for communications resources beyond simple printing and editing functions should be prepared and submitted.
