The ALAC is eager to promote a productive working relationship between your organization, other ALSes, and the ALAC (and ICANN in general), and your input on how we can make this a success would be greatly appreciated. It’s very important to keep the members of your organization informed (about significant news from ICANN and information on ICANN policy-development efforts) and engaged in activities of interest. Here are a few of the tools members of At-Large find useful: The At-Large wiki space is where you can find most of the relevant information: The At-Large introductory page<https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=2265510> help you navigate through the wiki contents.
