FY16 AC/SO Special Requests
This section will be updated to include information on how to submit a Request for the FY16 Budget.
- ALAC
AFRALO
APRALO
EURALO
LACRALO
NARALO
FY16 ALAC Criteria for Special 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 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.
- 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.
