(added Outreach & Engagement WG & RALO Secretariats) Thanks Beran. So that's going to be two people being selected for the Onboarding Program thus 1 mentor & 1 mentee. I am copying the RALO Secretariats & the Outreach & Engagement working group as we need to discuss what our selection process is going to be for this. Of course, 1 or 2 mentors and 5 mentees, one for region, would be a lot better for us; however budgets are not high enough to sustain this.

Both Wale Bakare (EURALO Secretary) and I will be present, but also many other At-Large leaders including the Chair of the ALAC, Alan Greenberg, as well as the At-Large selected Board member Leon Sanchez. An At-Large activities at IGF group has been created, with a mailing list: https://mm.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/at-large-igf-participants Please subscribe to the mailing list if you wish to be synchronized with all activities that both EURALO and At-Large are organising at IGF. We also have a WIKI page which shows all of the activities and has links to all the workshops that At-Large and EURALO participants at the IGF are involved in. Please add the workshops that you are speaking in, or are organising, to the list on the WIKI: https://community.icann.org/x/tikhB We are also present in force when it comes to booths: ICANN will have a booth, that we will need to visit and re-stock with brochures and have an occasional presence. At-Large will also have its own booth. We need volunteers to populate it at various times of the day. There is a sign-up sheet on the WIKI so please sign-up to indicate when you can spend some time at the booth. You can sign up on: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/At-Large+Booth+at+IGF2017 EURALO will also have some space in the European Stakeholders booth - and that's where we'll have our pop-up banner, so please also spend some time there. The At-Large booth will also have the following promotional materials: - At-Large brochures in several languages - EURALO brochures in several languages - At-Large lapel Pins. These are going to be highly sought after collectors items. - At-Large branded Power adaptors - we have found these to be super helpful with attendees and people tend to keep these - Swiss Chocolate - well, of course, we're in Switzerland, so we can't have a booth without chocolate! We'll call upon everyone at IGF to help with distributing these. ICANN is also organising a cocktail for Stakeholders on one of the evening, so please subscribe to the At-Large activities at IGF mailing list so as to be included in the invites. We hope many At-Large members who attend IGF will be able to help. You are our Ambassadors! If you have any questions or suggestions, please do not hesitate to email me directly.

FW: [ALAC] Fwd: [ICANN60_Onboarding] Call for ICANN61 Nominations
by Vanda Scartezini Nov. 22, 2017

Nov. 22, 2017

Tijani, friends I tend to agree with you and also disagree. Agree that there is need to outreach and shall have money to be used for this, but I do outreach in many occasions without the CROP, so CROP is not the only alternative for outreach. At same time Onboarding Pilot was an way to guarantee that people that will start with ICANN (so Outreach is already done) will feel welcome in order to understand all issues, have chance to choose their way inside ICANN and, as such, remain. I believe being the fund just one, it can be split between both programs. Once divided each program will focus on its goals. Guess we all agree both programs are important. What is not correct and I agree with you is use the $ from CROP to go to ICANN meetings – there is no outreach to be done there. But for ONBOARDING is just the opposite, more work shall be done during first days at ICANN meetings. As I said, being most of meeting time at AFRALO booth in Jo’Burg allowed me to respond to all doubts about ICANN and the way to go further to more than 100 colleagues, of course , mostly from Africa but this is valid for all regions.

This program (CROP) was designed to make outreach for new people. Now that it’s proposed that CROP is used for the COP menses, I say nooo. No for the following reasons: · Doing so will minimize the opportunity for outreach which is the sole objective of this program · The Onboarding program would be with no interest if it is for only one meeting. Remember how many meetings took the first pilot program (From Marrakech to Abu Dhabi = 4-5 meetings) We will end up with the ICANN org cancel the CROP program because we are using it for what wasn’t intended to be the objective. As for the selection of the Mentors / Mentees, we are supposed now to do it through the community. Since we are supposed to be a bottom-up decision making community, let’s take proposals from the RALOs. The final selection from the pool the RALOs proposed should be done by the selection committee (we have created a committee, let’s use it). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tijani BEN JEMAA Executive Director Mediterranean Federation of Internet Associations (FMAI) Phone: +216 98 330 114 +216 52 385 114 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Le 22 nov. 2017 à 00:01, Seun Ojedeji <seun.ojedeji(a)gmail.com<mailto:seun.ojedeji@gmail.com>> a écrit : Hello Olivier, Considering it's a Max of 3 persons (mentors/mentees inclusive), let me try elimination method with the options suggested inline: Sent from my mobile Kindly excuse brevity and typos On Nov 21, 2017 11:43 PM, "Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond" <ocl(a)gih.com<mailto:ocl@gih.com>> wrote: Dear Maritza, thanks for your follow-up.

The booth is for all the ICANN community, to distribute materials, as spot where you can hold briefing sessions, a meeting point, and anything else that might come in useful. Could those of you on this list acting as liaisons to your respective SO/AC and constituencies let your colleagues know that there will be an ICANN booth in the "IGF Village", that any of your colleagues attending the IGF are welcome to use it. If you have materials you would like to share (brochures, flyers, etc), please let me <adam.peake(a)icann.org> know and we will start making necessary arrangements to have those made available. As we do with the ICANN booth at regular ICANN meetings, we will also schedule times when SO/AC/constituency members can talk about their groups and activities. I'll let you know more as we get a bit closer to the start of the IGF (December 18).

Fwd: [ICANN60_Onboarding] Mentorship Guideline
by Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond Nov. 10, 2017

Nov. 10, 2017

Hello all, here is the GAC proposal for a Mentorship Guideline. I, like others, have concerns about the written reporting that is asked of a Mentor/Coach, which will turn away any already overworked volunteer. That said, there might be some points that could be helpful for us. Remember, each ICANN community is now being asked to design its own procedures. So there is no "one size fits all" process for the Community Onboarding. Kindest regards, Olivier -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [ICANN60_Onboarding] Mentorship Guideline Date: Wed, 8 Nov 2017 16:01:56 +0700 From: Rapid SUN <sun.rapid(a)niptict.edu.kh> To: ICANN60_Onboarding(a)icann.org Dear All, I would like to ask if you have developed Mentorship Guideline for your community. I see it's a good sample of fellowship coaches guideline as in attachment. In GAC, we are planning to establish mentor pooling based on region and develop mentorship guideline in GAC for reference.

...and this is what the BC does for their onboarding. -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Re: [ICANN60_Onboarding] Mentorship Guideline Date: Fri, 10 Nov 2017 12:38:20 +0000 From: Marilyn Cade <marilynscade(a)hotmail.com> To: Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond <ocl(a)gih.com>, Ayden Férdeline <ayden(a)ferdeline.com>, Rapid SUN <sun.rapid(a)niptict.edu.kh> CC: ICANN60_Onboarding(a)icann.org <ICANN60_Onboarding(a)icann.org> I'll discuss guidelines within the BC and with my two mentees. However, I want to mention that in the BC, we also have our own 'coaching' of the senior leadership invitees to each of the ICANN meetings. This is possibly more like what Rapid Sun is suggesting. For example, for each of the ICANN meetings when the BC has invited one or two senior leaders, working with the BC Secretariat, I do at least one one hour coaching call when the attendee(s) are invited. Our wonderous BC Secretariat explains the BC website, our processes for engagement, etc. and I focus on demystifying ICANN. [and demystifying the BC, of course -- who are our officers, our members, key issues re governance of ICANN and of gTLD policy]. For their attendance at ICANN, we have a sort of triage approach: here are the important BC and CSG meetings, and here are a few more sessions that you may be interested in -- depending on where they come from --e.g. for our executives from Africa, I propose the African Strategy session, for our recent attendee from Egypt, we attended the MENA strategy session, for our LATEM senior executives, we propose the Latin American Strategy session. We add in of course the public forums and other events that are relevant to their interest. Just an other example, as two of our recent BC executives are quite sophisticated on financial issues, we proposed that they attend the budget working groups [with those of the BC who are already engaged]. When they arrive at ICANN, we try to have them co located at a hotel with one of the officers, typically the Vice Chair of Finance and Operations, who is the key contact for this program. They are greeted, and sometimes, if appropriate, we have a small tea/coffee, or dinner with 2-3 of the BC Outreach Committee members. One of the Outreach Committee offers to escort them to registration for badging. And we introduce them to Board members, GAC members, other leaders from the community throughout the week. We have recently been using the ICANN Information booth as the place to convene during coffee breaks, and that is working very well as we want our executives to become quickly independent but know that someone from the BC outreach committee are there to advise and introduce. This is above and beyond our on boarding of newcomers, but it will be reflected in our final documents as we want to do much of this for any newcomer who is qualified to become a BC member. Probably the BC will have mentorship guidelines, including time commitments, historical expertise, reputational standing in the community, and attendance records for any commitments at ICANN, as we are after all businesses. I do not suggest any such criteria for any other group, as Ayden notes and Olivier reinforces, each group is quite unique. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *From:* icann60_onboarding-bounces(a)icann.org <icann60_onboarding-bounces(a)icann.org> on behalf of Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond <ocl(a)gih.com> *Sent:* Friday, November 10, 2017 1:34 AM *To:* Ayden Férdeline; Rapid SUN *Cc:* ICANN60_Onboarding(a)icann.org *Subject:* Re: [ICANN60_Onboarding] Mentorship Guideline Hello all, I have read this proposal from the GAC processes and found it interesting. I do agree with Ayden that it places a high workload on the Coaches to produce much documentation which, whilst I find useful, is unlikely to attract any coaches that are already very overworked, especially in the pure volunteer part of ICANN. But of course, I think that each part of our community should develop its own guidelines that fit their community's needs - and Rapid Sun's document is helpful for us.
