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 Draft ALAC Criteria for Additional Budget Requests:
- 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 CROP 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.
- 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.

Access by RALOs for funding of local engagement activities (Revised Draft) | ALAC | Given the significant success of the FY18 ABR request for RALO Discretionary Funding, for FY19, the ALAC requests that each of the five RALO’s be given access up to $4,000 each for targeted local discretionary funds to permit the local travel, luncheons, displays, graphic and promotional Facebook/Twitter graphics. As shown by the number of useful activities requested and approved to date in the implementation of the similar FY18 ABR, it is clear that opportunities exist for At-Large members to do local outreach and engagement about ICANN and ICANN policy related issues. Giving the RALOs the ability to identify local engagement activities which they can self-organize provides ICANN and the At-Large Structures with an efficient local team that is knowledgeable on ICANN policies. This results in grass-roots awareness-raising of ICANN in local communities. This project saw significant increase in the number of requests and successfully implemented local events. An additional year of ABR funding would allow this program to build on its success in allowing RALOs and At-Large Structures to reach out to and engage with local communities. Financial Support: Funding for $20,000 ($4,000 x 5 RALOs) | |||
ALAC | This request is for a post-ICANN meeting ICANN Meeting Review and Planning Session. It will occur at the end of each ICANN meeting held in FY19 and will include the ALAC Leadership Team (1 person per Region), the Liaisons to other AC/SOs, other advisors to the ALT (typically the recent past ALAC Chairs of not there in some other capacity) and critical At-Large support staff. This strategy meeting will include a number of components:
Our experience is that in the absence of such a meeting, people disappear immediately for 1-2 weeks to either relax (rare!) or to catch up on their real lives and jobs after being at the ICANN meeting (often taken as vacation time from their real jobs). We then spend considerable time scrambling to get organized again and we inevitable do not quite make it, decreasing the ALAC and leader effectiveness and significantly increasing stress (on both volunteers and staff). In contrast, the ALT Strategy Meetings held to date at the last several ICANN Meetings through previous ABRs have provided space for key discussions on ALAC policy, priorities, and leadership challenges resulting in solid actions that have considerably advanced the work of the ALAC. The ALT Members have expressed that these meetings have provided exceptionally important opportunities for strategic development and team-building. Several other AC/SOs increasingly hold inter-sessional meetings lasting several days with additional travel and accommodation to allow for strategic thinking environments. However, the ALT currently has found that these half day strategy sessions are sufficient for the time being. | ||||
AT-LARGE Outreach and Engagement Sub-Commettee | AT-LARGE GLOBAL ENGAGEMENT AND CAPACITY-BUILDING AT THE IGF Location to be determined , Date to be announced Our experience from the Dec 2017 at the IGF Geneva demonstrated tremendous success in outreach and engagement resulting from a well organized booth presence and coordinated workshop activities with RALO representatives supporting and participating in each others' sessions. KEY OBJECTIVE for 2018: To continuously improve on our developing At-Large Outreach Strategy targeting global stakeholders in the Internet Ecosystem in order to heighten awareness about At-Large, its role within ICANN and its activities. This was undertaken very successfully via a visual presence and collaborative outreach by ALAC and RALO representatives at the booth and during formal participation in IGF workshops. At-Large was a noticeable presence at a wide range of IGF session topics, supporting Civil Society, GNSO as well as At-Large sessions. Proposal Objectives The At-Large IGF Outreach Strategy incorporates relevant outreach objectives from ICANN’s Strategic Plan - in particular, to:

Global Indigenous Peoples Ambassador Program In support of Fellowships | ALAC/At-Large | Assign Global Indigenous Fellowships to the ICANN Fellowship Program to increase the ability of global indigenous peoples to engage effectively within ICANN as well as to raise awareness on ICANN-related policy issues among indigenous communities worldwide. This is the third phase of this highly successful program. The FY’2018 request was proposed by ALAC. The FY’ 2017 inaugural request was proposed as a community special request project by Native Public Media (NPM), an ALS based in NARALO. To make the most of the generous opportunity via ICANN, vested global indigenous mentors are paramount in bridging the importance of ICANN’s work to that of indigenous communities around the world. Mentors bridge the work post ICANN Fellowship engagement making the program meaningful, lasting, and relevant across Indigenous communities and raising the impact of ICANN’s work globally. The results achieved from their participation were above expectation and the impact generated resulted in thousands of people getting to know about the program. The ambassador from Bolivia was interviewed on TV in an indigenous language program to discuss Internet policy and how other communities can participate. One of the indigenous fellows from the USA presented the program during the IGF2017 closing ceremony, an event with over 3200 registered participants. The community empowerment this program enabled will continue to be acknowledged for decades as ICANN participants immersion on the community is, in average, 3 years at least. Because of the success of the past year we were approached by RightsCon to create a session on indigenous issues. The program is also enabling an increase in the number of ALSes within the LACRALO and NARALO areas. There is also increasing awareness in Africa on Indigenous issues. In this second year of the Global Indigenous fellowships we would like to expand the program even more. For our last fellowship to ICANN 61 we have over 155 applications and would love to be able to add an additional two ambassadors so that we can have ambassadors from many more regions of the world. Term: July 2018 – June 2019 Education/Training:
The Fellowships will include travel support for two ICANN Meetings in FY2019: (1) ICANN 63, October 20 – October 26, 2018, Barcelona Spain; (2) ICANN 64, March 9–14, 2019, Kobe, Japan Financial Support: Four (4) indigenous Fellows and two (2) indigenous mentors per conference @ two FY2019 ICANN Conferences (2X3=6 Fellows):

ICANN’s Awareness Animated Video in different Native African Languages (Draft) | AFRALO | Recruit a media/video production agency/expert to Create a short awareness animated video about ICANN, At-Large, ICANN’s mission and policy issues targeting the African Internet users. The first and foremost reason for using an animated video to increase the ICANN’s awareness is that it’s rich media which is engaging, this visual medium appeals to the senses and offers an easy and effective way to communicate important messages about ICANN, and the best part is that visuals are consumed a lot more easily than text, and leave a lasting impact on the target audience. The produced animated video will have Voice over in seven African native languages, Arabic, Swahili, Amharic, Yoruba, Oromo, Hausa and Zulu, those languages are the most spoken languages in the continent. The produced material can be presented in different African Internet Governance events, disturbed and shared using the different social media channels. Financial Support: Subject Matter Experts: Recruit a media agency/expert specialized in animated videos production. Technology Support: Conference calls to develop story board and script for the video. | Incorporated into the consolidated request. | ||
Capacity building and engagement for the local community at ICANN 65 in Marrakech (New Draft) | AFRALO | During ICANN 65 in Marrakech, AFRALO intends to organize Capacity Building sessions and engagement activities for a selected number of local Students and teachers that have been involved in the local community engagement program organized by AFRALO at ICANN 55 in Marrakech. We will build on what we already did in 2016 and try to deepen the knowledge of the best 10 people from the 60 students and teachers we involved in ICANN 55 to prepare them for a deep involvement in ICANN activities. Each of them will have an AFRALO experienced mentor (One mentor for 2 mentees). This will be done through capacity building sessions during the 4 days of the meeting plus participation in various At-Large and not At-Large working sessions. At the end of the meeting, the selected 10 trainees will be required to provide reports on each and every session they attended. Financial Support: Local transportation for the 10 trainees (From downtown Marrakech to the meeting venue and back) during the 4 days of the meeting. Lunch for the 10 trainees during the 4 days of the meeting. | |||
APRALO Leadership Team participation in the 2018 IGF (Revised Draft) | APRALO Leadership Team | Continuing further with the successful previous IGF initiatives, the APRALO Leadership Team proposes participation of 3 members of its Leadership Team at the 2018 IGF. The specific activities that would be carried out by the three-member Outreach Delegation, jointly and individually, are:
The IGF's open format allows anyone interested in Internet policy to participate. Consequently, it presents a unique opportunity for outreach as well as for networking and interacting with several global communities that are otherwise difficult to contact independently. Several members of APRALO—including some of the members of the APRALO Leadership Team—have been actively participating in IGF over the years, and have been organizing workshops on different IG-related topics. APRALO was able to send an official delegation to IGF 2015 held at João Pessoa, Brazil , IGF 2016 in Mexico and IGF 2017 in Geneva with ICANN budget support. The initiative was very successful, and the APRALO team was able to extensively interact with members of APRALO, members of the Asia-Pacific Internet Governance community, members of other RALOs, ICANN community members, and the larger IGF Community. The APRALO team also supported the APRALO members in organizing their workshops. As of now, neither the themes for IGF 2018 nor the Call for Proposals have been published. APRALO had discussed a plan to propose a Workshops, as soon as the call for proposals is announced. As an initial step, the following topics are tentatively identified for workshop proposals:
Although these proposals are from APRALO, speakers and panelists for these sessions will be selected from global groups ensuring geographic, gender, linguistic and cultural diversity. In particular, the speakers will include ICANN Board members, ALAC (and other stakeholder group) leaders in addition to APRALO leaders. It is understood that while this RALO request is submitted separate from the At-Large, should both be funded, they are complementary and will be synchronized as done in 2017. Financial Request (Travel Support): The proposal seeks financial support for travel, accommodation, per diem and visa fees as applicable, for 3 members of the APRALO Leadership team for participation at IGF 2018. | |||
APRALO Banner, Posters and Updated brochures for 2018 events (Draft) | Maureen Hilyard (APRALO) | One of the positive results of the IGF booth activity was the interest that people had in the RALOS and how they could be involved. APRALO was particularly popular because of the number of Asian and Pacific participants at the IGF. We have also found that at regional events that we attend, and where we have an opportunity to promote APRALO and the involvement of our ALS and individual members in regional activities, people actually want to know about what we are doing and how they can become involved. The At-Large banner was a drawcard, and we would like to have the APRALO banner to follow us around to the events that we attend. Because there has been a change of personnel in the leadership team, it is important that this information is kept up to date as well. APRICOT is the first regional meeting of the year, followed closely by the first ICANN meeting so that there are opportunities for the resources to be distributed among the leadership team for taking with them to events throughout the year. Replenishing stocks can take place at intervening meetings during the year. While RALOS have access to funds ($2000) to support regional activities we would like to use these funds to provide for APRALO takeaways that will provide some practical reminder of the event and APRALO contact.The banners and posters are one off and we would hope will be able to last for several years of events, and updated brochures would last two years. But the promotional support offered by Euralo and Eurodig at the IGF was really successful in getting people to the booth and getting their interest. We would like to be able to do this as well as our booths, in particular at the APrGF which will be our first inroad into the Pacific. The proposal seeks to purchase resources to promote APRALO at regional events. One time activity for banners and posters, but updates of brochures may be required every two years. Financial Request: Staff support and materials. | Incorporated into the consolidated request. | ||
APRALO Outreach Activities at APrIGF 2018 (Draft) | APRALO Leadership Team | APRALO had a very successful General Assembly at Abu Dhabi at ICANN 60 in 2018. However, there are no ICANN meetings in the Asia-Pacific region in 2018, and consequently, there are no opportunities to build on the momentum generated by the 2017 GA. The Asia-Pacific Regional IGF (APrIGF) is a community event that attracts a cross-section of the IG community in the region. In 2018, the event scheduled at Port Vila, Vanuatu, in August 2018. APRALO proposes to conduct the following outreach/inreach activities for the At-Large community of the region, as well as for potential newcomers:
The proposal seeks to create an active and visible role for APRALO and ICANN At-Large through multiple activities at this key regional event It is a one-time activity that does not need to be done when there is an ICANN meeting in the region. The proposal aims to:

Diversity in ICANN Leadership Bodies (Draft) | Olivier Crepin-Leblond (EURALO) | The diversity includes a broad range of data. To enhance diversity we need to be able to collect those data. It will be useful to gather the data both from an historical point of view and from a current and future situation. All the ICANN leadership bodies can be concerned but the first one to be discuss (as the data are already collected and in the last mile to be analyzed) must be the Board. In future steps (specifically going to a workshop during 2018 IGF) we will need to take into account other leadership bodies of other Internet Governance structure (Internet Society, IETF, IGF MAG…). Workshop's themes: - what is Diversity (based on the WS2 ccwg-ICANN accountability document)? - what are the data that need to be collected? - evolution of diversity in various ICANN leadership groups - how to enhance diversity in ICANN leadership groups? Research/Study and Meeting EURALO/At Large/otherSO/AC joint workshop at one ICANN6x (FY2019) Financial Request: (Travel Support) Additional one person from EURALO, one from At-Large and one per body concerned will get involved in this workshop. And 5 people to IGF 2018. | |||
Internet-of-Things (IoT) and the Increasing Governance Challenge Ahead IGF 2018 Workshop (Draft) | Olivier Crepin-Leblond (EURALO) | The IoT evolution includes a broad range of industries, including the automotive, finance, consumer electronic devices, retail services, manufacturing, agriculture and other sectors important for sustainable development of the humanity. Central to the solutions and deployments of IoT is unified communication. The unified communication relies heavily on the All-IP-Based scheme for end-to-end delivery of IoT solutions. All-IP-Based Deployment: what about the Internet architecture evolution? All things Internet rely on implementation and deployment as a set of unified protocols, numbering and addressing. What is the role of numbering and naming in IoT environment? Workshop's themes: - what is IoT, how to move the public perception from “smart coffee machine” to industry 4.0? - evolution of IoT protocols and networks and impact on governance - IoT (small and big) data parsing, building behaviour models and future risks to privacy of individuals - cross border IoT (IIoT) data exchange and role of governments - critical infrastructure: bikes vs. nuclear plants. How do we manage critical objects? Do we really want to connect everything to the Internet? - IP-less communications: All-IP-Based is not a religion, but business approach. At what conditions is there no need to All-IP-Based devices? - proprietary protocols and war of standards. ISO vs RFC, history repeats or lessons learned? EURALO IGF 2018 Workshop: At-Large Outreach and Engagement Financial Request: (Travel Support) 3 people would be required from the EURALO members, to travel to the workshop. The fund requests for hotel, per diem is $10,000 | |||
Support participation of individual users in EURALO (Draft) | Olivier Crepin-Leblond (EURALO) | An association has been created to provide a home for the individual users in EURALO. This association has now grown and has about 40 members. The need is to support the management of the discussions among EURALO individual users about the policy development activities while at the same time promote the association in order to enlarge the number of participating individual users. In detail, the following activities have been identified:
Financial Request: Technical: Adobe Connect for teleconferences Web site development and support Voting and polling tools Language Services Support: Outreach material should be translated in the major European languages, like other EURALO outreach material Other: Printing of Brochures | |||
Joint NCUC-EURALO Town Hall Event at ICANN 63 in Barcelona (Draft) | Olivier Crepin-Leblond (EURALO) | EURALO and NCUC organised a Town Hall event at the ICANN Copenhagen meeting. The event consisted of an introduction to NCUC and At-Large during its first part. The second part consisted of an open topical discussion about several policy topics. The proposal is to repeat such an event for the ICANN 63 meeting in Barcelona. One time activity that is unconflicted - with a potential need to have this activity take place at day -1. The length of the event is 3 to 4 hours (in the afternoon) split into two halves with a 20 minute networking break in the middle. This Town Hall event is aimed at newcomers: NextGen, Fellows, Onboarding but is open to all. It is proposed by a single region (EURALO) but should benefit participants from all regions. The format of the session is such that it will appeal to youth too. Financial Request: Technical: This session should be accessible remotely and archived. Language Services: Interpretation in French and Spanish would be helpful, considering the location (Barcelona). Other: The session will be split by a break with refreshments and canapés. (Tapas) Travel: Depending on scheduling an additional hotel night might be needed for panelists (6 people max). All participants need to already be in Barcelona. | |||
LACRALO Leadership Team participation in the 2018 IGF Meeting (Draft) | Maritza Aguero (LACRALO) | The 2018 Internet Governance Forum (IGF) is an open and public Forum that brings interested participants from various stakeholder groups as equals, under a multistakeholder process. IGF focuses on public policy issues relating to the Internet and is a unique opportunity for outreach as well as for networking and interacting with several global communities that are otherwise difficult to contact independently. Several members of LACRALO have been actively participating by remote participation for years and because of lack of funding the cannot attend to this global meeting. LACRALO is facing a Mediation process so this proposal intents to demonstrate to the 2018 IGF participants that LACRALO can work together in policy discussion and we are open to new members that can really contribute in our Region. Also, to demonstrate the work that LACRALO is doing and improving. We have noticed that other RALOS have being accepted this kind of proposals successfully and the LACRALO Leadership wanted also to extensively interact with members of other RALOs members, ICANN community members, and the larger IGF Community with the participation of 3 members of its Leadership members at the 2018 IGF. The specific activities that would be carried out by the three-member, jointly and individually, are:
This request is submitted with independence with other proposal and/or initiatives presented. This proposal seeks financial support for travel, accommodation, per diem and visa fees as applicable, for three (3) LACRALO Leadership Members for participation at IGF 2018 with the following activities:
Explain what is LACRALO and its mission. Financial Request Travel Support: Travel support (flight, hotel, per diem, visa fees) for 3 Leadership Members. | |||
Organization of a Workshop / participation at 2018 IGF (Draft) | Maritza Aguero | This proposal consists in the organization of a workshop at the 2018 IGF (place not defined yet) on a high interest topic in accordance with the IGF overall archived content and/or initiatives, according to the end-users’ perspective. Speakers will be selected respecting the diversity rules in the Region: geographic diversity, gender and/or stakeholders. The IGF format allows anyone interested in Internet Policy to participate. Consequently, it presents a unique opportunity for networking and interacting with several global communities that are otherwise difficult to contact independently. This request is submitted with independence with other proposal and/or initiatives presented. Reviewing the archives from the last 2017 IGF there were some proposals made by Community Members approved but they could not attend to the meeting due to lack of funding (For example, Maritza Aguero, actual LACRALo Secretariat got two (2) proposals approved. This was mentioned in one of an ICANN IGF Teleconference about FY18 Additional Budget Proposal). In case there were no proposals accepted by the IGF Committee, the funding can be given to the Community Members that can demonstrated high participation in LACRALO and can interact in other participants in policy development. Financial Request: This proposal seeks financial support for travel, accommodation, per diem and visa fees as applicable, for five (5) Members of the LACRALO Community for participation at IGF 2018. This funding could increment the lack of participation of the Latin American Community in the global Internet Governance Forum, comparing to other regions. | |||

Development and Implementation of a Mediation Course for LACRALO (Draft) | Alberto Soto (LACRALO) | Development and Implementation of a Mediation course for LACRALO Members. Your net orientation should be to highlight the behavior of people who are in conflict, and what their behavior is like during a Mediation process. This predisposes to apply an appropriate behavior without the need of the existence of a present mediator. The objective is for all students to understand what a mediation process is like, but mainly to let them know the benefits of this process, for their family, work and social relationships. Particularly the relationship in groups of multiple stakeholders. Everyone should listen to the other party, and everyone should understand that many times they should give in to something to achieve a common good. Development and Implementation of a course consisting of 20 hours in total with 10 two-hour modules. It must contain mediation exercises carried out between groups of three participants, which will rotate in their role as Mediator and Parties. All three must exercise their role of mediator and behavior of the parties. If the result is very favorable, it must be a biannual recurring activity. Financial Request: Language Services: Translation in EN/ES/FR ICANN Staff: A trainer in Mediation, previous talk with who proposed the course in LACRALO IT Services: Adobe connect, telephone. | |||
NARALO Spanish Language Brochures and Mailcards (Draft) | Glenn McKnight (NARALO) | The proposal is to request ICANN Communication department to edit and print the NARALO brochure and Mailcard into Spanish. | Incorporated into the consolidated request. | ||
NARALO’s Team participation in the thirteenth Annual IGF Meeting (Draft) | Judith Hellerstein, Glenn McKnight (NARALO) | Internet Governance Forum (IGF) is a United Nations forum which provides a platform to discuss the multistakeholder Internet governance issues with the global Internet community and attendees from developed and developing countries. IGF is one of the best and prominent venues to present ICANN as a an exemplary of multistakeholder model in the Internet governance ecosystem. At last year’s IGF At Large had great success in carrying out outreach at IGF and promoting the multi stakeholder model to the larger, diverse Internet community and also introducing NARALO to many new people. To achieve the two goals of presenting ICANN as the exemplar of Multi stakeholder, to engage with underserved communities within NARALO target area, and to engage and outreach to others in the North American we seek to have two travel spots approved to support to two NARALO members to attend IGF 2017. We would like to hold several workshops and side events at IGF 2018. By allocating travel support from ICANN we will increase the participation of NARALO at the IGF. We plan to further expand our activities at IGF 2018 in terms of organizing sessions, outreach and awareness raising. Having learnt from our past successful experience, we will again hold a booth at the venue (if approved); we will submit proposals for workshops and side events requests for IGF and we will participate in shaping the schedule and sessions for civil society day which usually takes place one day before IGF. We will also hold an outreach event. As a followup to the successful IGF GENEVA 2018 our plan is to work closely with the Outreach and Engagement Committee in their efforts to expand At Large and NARALO’s outreach and engagement efforts at the IGF.
Hold several workshop which focuses on ICANN, At Large, and are targeted at the unserved communities within NARALO, accessibility, indigenous, low
Although this RALO request and other RALO requests are submitted separate from the At-Large, it is understood that should both be funded, they are complementary and will need to be synchronized. Financial Request: (Travel Support): The proposal seeks financial support for travel, accommodation, per diem and visa fees as applicable, for 2 members of NARALO for participation at IGF 2018 from Day -1 through the end of the IGF |
