Dear Alan, 1. The problem is easily solved if the Chair is appointed on a lottery basis; 2. Ensuring rotation of RALO Chairs is also critical; 3. The main thing is participation by all the RALOs and a position should not determine output. 4. Ideally, you could have a Chair, Vice Chair and Secretary; 5. Clear Terms of Reference or Charter etc and scope of works and deliverables to justify expenditure of meetings; 6. An estimated budget of the WG on overall At Large Budget. 7. Clear reporting timelines and mechanisms. Wish you all well, Sala On Wed, Nov 29, 2017 at 8:54 AM, Alan Greenberg <alan.greenberg@mcgill.ca> wrote:
For discussion at today's meeting.
*Outreach & Engagement Subcommittee*In Abu Dhabi, we agreed to repopulate the RALO–appointed O&E SC, verify that the other members still wish to participate and solicit new membership.
In attempting to implement this, several issues arose: · The leadership structure is rather confusing: 1 Chair plus five Co-Chairs. · In the past, we could not identify an explicit call for RALO appointments (and the lack of it has caused considerable difficulty). · It is not clear how the “Co-Chairs” were appointed nor what their role was in relation to RALOs. · There are significant plans in place with regard to the IGF meeting in Geneva in December. Reforming the SC now could be problematic.
*Proposal*· Two members named by RALO, at least one of which is a member of the RALO leadership team (Chair, Secretariat, Vice-Chair) · Effective date: 01 January 2018.
*To be Decided*· Leadership structure (Chair and Vice-Chairs; Co-Chairs; etc.) · If there are regional Co-Chairs or Vice-Chairs, their relation to the appointed members.
