Meeting invitation: At-Large Capacity Building Working Group Fifth Webinar - "Creating Videos with Power Point" on Tuesday, 04 May 2021 at 19:00 UTC
by ICANN At-Large Staff April 26, 2021

April 26, 2021

Register for Zoom! Registrarse para zoom Inscrivez-vous pour Zoom! Dear All, On behalf of Joanna Kulesza and Alfredo Calderon, Co-Chairs of the At-Large Capacity Building Working Group, we would like to invite you to join the fifth webinar on “Creating Videos with Power Point” on Tuesday, 04 May 2021 at 19:00 UTC for 90 minutes. It’s no secret that video is, almost always, the best way to convey information to a “virtual”audience. Whether it’s a promotional video, social media or a full blown “explainer” video, the dynamics of animation, narration and music are central to being understood. While most of this content is created in dedicated video editing software, it turns out you can do a LOT of it, in your favorite presentation program such as PowerPoint and Keynote. All of THESE videos were created, directly in PowerPoint! https://atlarge.wiki/videos [atlarge.wiki]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/atlarge.wiki/videos__;!!PtGJab4!o15owcyS…> In this webinar, we will look at how to create different kinds of videos in PowerPoint, including animation, narration and music. As this activity is 90% art and only 10% technical, you will be able to easily apply what you learn to whatever software YOU use to create your slides and presentations. Some time, after the webinar, there will be a follow up, hands on, workshop and a contest to create the best video! The webinar is scheduled on Tuesday, 04 May 2021at 19:00 UTC for 90 minutes. For other times: https://tinyurl.com/589ctdnx French and Spanish interpretation will be provided. The draft agenda and call details are available at :https://community.icann.org/x/BQKlCQ ZOOM REGISTRATION required: https://icann.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJMvfuuvqD8tHdwGuB940aJ6gVmLBrMjsD0I Important: Please keep note of the zoom room as you will be sent an unique link!

EXTENDED CALL FOR MEMBERS and ALTERNATES: For the GNSO PDP to Review the Transfer Policy
by ICANN At-Large Staff April 23, 2021

April 23, 2021

Dear All, On behalf of the members of the ALAC Appointee Selection Subcommittee (AASC), this is to inform you that the call for ALAC Member and Alternates for the GNSO PDP to Review the Transfer Policy has been extended through Thursday, 29 April at 23:59 UTC. The AASC met with Melissa Allgood who has been doing some training for the At-Large community on the GNSO Consensus Playbook. She provided us with an explanation of what the GNSO is expecting of members of other communities who intend to participate in their new PDPs. The GNSO PDP to Review the Transfer Policy is being run under the Representative Model of the GNSO Consensus Playbook. The three tier structure includes 2 Members, 2 Alternates and several Observers as representatives from each of theconstituencies within ICANN. * MEMBERS are the only ones who can actually participate in the meeting, but more importantly they MUST convey the views and opinions of the constituency they represent. Therefore, not only will it require a commitment to attend the GNSO meetings, but also the regular CPWG calls to provide information about what is happening in the PDP, but also to ensure that our representatives all get the same message from the CPWG/At-Large views about whatever the current issue is under discussion by the PDP. * ALTERNATES replace MEMBERS on the PDP for whatever reason, illness, etc.. so that they also have to be up with the play about both sides of each issue which will be dealt with and then they move onto the next.. And there is no going back on old discussions. They could possibly contribute as leads in the discussions that are held within the CPWG, supported by the OBSERVERS, * OBSERVERS is the status for those who are interested in the PDP topic, but perhaps don't yet have the knowledge or confidence to participate actively in a PDP. A group of Observers listening into a meeting would be helpful in the CPWG discussions in support of the members and alternates. However, most importantly are the skills and knowledge that people bring to the table. These are mandatory skills for all Members. As noted in the earlier call for applications, they skills and knowledge necessary for the GNSO PDP to Review the Transfer Policy are outlined below. According to the GNSO Transfer Policy PDP Charter<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/draft-cha…>, WG members shall review the full text of the Guidance document below to understand the responsibilities and skills that they are expected to have in order to fully participate in the WG activities. Guidance: Working Group Member Skills Guide<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/pdp-3-3-w…> For the GNSO PDP to Review the Transfer Policy, Working Group Members and Alternates must possess: ● Knowledge of Transfer Policy issue, background and current work status (technical knowledge of inter-registrar transfers is strongly preferred); ● Commitment to participating in Working Group meetings on a regular and ongoing basis; ● Ability to create factual, relevant and easily understandable messages, and able to succinctly deliver them to the Working Group; ● Ability to deliver a point constructively and concisely; ● Familiarity with the following sections of the Working Group Guidelines: ○ Section 4.1 Session Planning – General Meeting Logistics ○ Section 4.2 Communication/Collaboration Tools ● Effective oral, written, and interpersonal communication skills (in simple, comprehensible English); ● Research skills with the ability to discern factual, factually relevant, and persuasive details and sources; ● Commitment to manage a diverse workload, while collaborating with a Working Group of individuals with different backgrounds and interests in driving objectives; ● In depth knowledge of Working Group discussions, actions taken at meetings, and deliverables; ● Understanding of the perspectives and interests of the members’ own stakeholder group or constituency; ● Project management skills in driving the completion of SG/C statements in a timely manner. If you are interested in applying either as an ALAC Member or as an Alternate, please send your Statement of Interest to Maureen Hilyard and At-Large no later than Thursday, 29 April at 23:59 UTC clearly stating the following: · To which you are applying position; · Explaining why you are interested in the position; and · Outlining how you meet the required skills noted above.
