English Dear Colleagues, I hope this email finds you well. The ICANN63 meeting in Barcelona, Spain is only about 1.5 months away. We plan to have the Joint AFRALO-AfrICANN meeting as agreed during the AFRALO monthly call on 5 September 2018. This is a call for topics for the statement for the meeting.

We also have the Expedited Policy Development Process (EPDP) working now and we may choose to give our opinion as a region on several aspects of the temporary specifications like data collection, processing, transfer, retention, and access to non-public data). This wide range of topics mentioned above are given as examples. Of course, you may suggest other topics if you so desire. As is the norm, the topic that receives the most support will be selected. A drafting team will then be constituted to prepare the statement. Please note that the final statement should be prepared early to allow it to be translated into French before ICANN63.

Response to question on Individual Members
by Sarah Kiden Sept. 5, 2018

Sept. 5, 2018

Dear Pastor Peters, I hope this email finds you well. Following the just concluded AFRALO monthly call, I had requested for some time to consult and clarify on the question you raised. You asked if we have been posting applications for AFRALO Individual Membership to the AFRALO mailing list. The answer is no. Currently, individual membership applicants send their forms to Staff, who perform due diligence and forward the application to RALO leadership. During all our monthly calls, members are informed of all applications (ALS or Individual Membership) and once members agree, the applications are then sent to ALAC, through Staff, for certification. I crossed checked with ALS accreditation rules <https://atlarge.icann.org/get-involved/about-als> and Individual Membership rules <https://community.icann.org/display/AFRALO/Individual+Membership+-+AFRALO+R…> as drafted by the AFRALO Rules of Procedure Working Group and voted by our members. While for ALSes it is clearly mentioned that the application will be sent to RALO members, the Individual Membership rules do not mention this. When we accepted these rules, it was agreed that we would review the rules after 2 years, so that means that the review will happen in 2019. Should this be a requirement that members would like to add to the rules, we can add it to the discussion points. I hope this answers the question that you raised. Kind regards, Sarah Kiden AFRALO Secretariat
