Reminder to Participate in the APRALO Register of Skills & Interests Pilot Cycle 1; Closes on 13 Sep 2024
by Justine Chew Aug. 26, 2024

Aug. 26, 2024

*Apologies for duplicates received due to cross-posting* Dear all, The *APRALO Register of Skills & Interests Pilot **Cycle 1* is open for your participation until *13 September 2024, 23:59 UTC*. Since Cycle 1 was launched on 19 July, we have been able to match the skills and interests of participants and to invite them to consider taking up various APRALO and At-Large engagement opportunities. Have you informed us of your skills/knowledge and interests? *ABOUT THE **APRALO ROSI* The *APRALO Register of Skills & Interests (RoSI)* is intended to be a dynamic register to which APRALO Community members may wish to submit data on their skills, knowledge and interests specifically in areas within ICANN’s remit. Submission of data on experience or interest in advocating for a multistakeholder model in Internet Governance would also be welcomed. We are proceeding with this APRALO RoSI pilot while development of the ICANN Community Engagement System (CES) remains pending for the At-Large Community. This APRALO RoSI pilot implementation is *expected to run over 2 cycles* (Cycle1: Jul-mid Sep 2024, and Cycle 2: Oct-Nov 2024) to enable adjustments to be made in consideration of new input (eg. results of the APRALO Hot Topics Survey 2024). After each cycle, the pilot will be reviewed for continuous improvement and durability (as needed). The 2-cycle approach is also meant to facilitate the participation of new respondents over time, and to enable past respondents to update their previously submitted data (just for the pilot). *PURPOSE & USE OF SUBMITTED DATA* Data offered by respondents through the planned pilot implementation will not be published for public viewing. Instead the data will be processed and accessed exclusively by APRALO Leadership Team Members (and At-Large Staff) for the following purposes. In terms of *Skills*, to assess a respondent’s experience, aptitude and suitability for: - An invitation to join an APRALO Work Team (or Small Team) or APRALO Policy Forum Small Team to undertake a specific task; - Nomination to represent APRALO or participate in ICANN events, cross-community working groups, policy development work, pen-holding for statements, leading initiatives or events, review teams etc - Generally being a resource person for APRALO. In terms of *Interests*, to gauge a respondent’s interest to build one’s capacity in APRALO’s identified priorities. In participating in Cycle 1 of the APRALO RoSI, you may choose to provide any amount of data above the minimum that we request of you, and you can change your provided data at any time *up to 13 September 2024, 23:59 UTC*. We would however encourage you to FULLY complete the form to provide the APRALO Leadership Team with sufficient data to be able to harness your skills and knowledge or identify initiatives which you could engage in, for the benefit of the APRALO Community. *HOW TO PARTICIPATE* If you're ready to participate, please proceed to *click on this link <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc0UgqTzdNxrCJb5ixbr05cOCeT0O_4kXR…>*. Remember that Cycle 1 of the APRALO RoSI closes on *13 September 2024, 23:59 UTC*. Thank you! Kind regards, On behalf of the APRALO Leadership Team *Justine Chew* APRALO Register of Skills & Interests <https://community.icann.org/x/YALECQ> Project Lead
