The webinar is scheduled on Monday 01 June at 21:00 UTC for 90 minutes. For other times: https://tinyurl.com/yb55h47f [tinyurl.com]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__tinyurl.com_yb55h47f&d…> The agenda is available here: https://community.icann.org/x/6YUEC French and Spanish interpretation will be provided. ***UPDATED LINK*** Please REGISTER [icann.zoom.us] to receive the webinar details [icann.zoom.us]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__icann.zoom.us_webinar_…>: https://icann.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Wu8e39aLTZCkgZfq1qqJqw [icann.zoom.us]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__icann.zoom.us_webinar_…> The Guest Speakers are: Léon Sánchez [icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resource…>, ICANN Board Vice Chair; Veni Markovski<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_profiles…>, ICANN Vice President for UN engagement and Javier Rúa-Jovet<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__icannwiki.org_Javier-5…>, ALAC NARALO representative. Building upon the successful geopolitics and cybersecurity session during ICANN 67 [One World - One Internet? Cybersecurity and Geopolitics in a Multistakeholder Environment [67.schedule.icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__67.schedule.icann.org_…>], the At-Large Capacity Building Working Group is holding a follow up webinar as a run up to ICANN 68. Its aim is to follow the progress made thus far in enhancing community presence in ongoing cybersecurity and Internet governance discussions as well as get a better understating of upcoming issues and challenges. This interactive webinar will include an update on UN processes potentially impacting ICANN’s mission as well as a review of ICANN Board's progress and further plans in ensuring due representation of the ICANN community in these geopolitical trends. We hope for the webinar to be a platform for developing a better understanding of end user interests as represented in ICANN multistakeholder processes and how those fit in with global multilateral discussion in UN and beyond. Additionally, we will also try to explore whether the recent pandemic has impacted multistakeholder policy development, with particular emphasis on end user interests. During this webinar we would like to address the following questions: * What are the recent developments in international relations and policy making which might have a direct impact on ICANN, its community and its functions (with emphasis on UN OEWG and UN GGE)? Has the pandemic impacted these ongoing processes? What are the nearest prospected outcomes we should be aware of? Have multilateral and multistakeholder processes proven to be contradictory by nature or can they be aligned? * What are the nearest ICANN Board plans to address these developments and interests? How can the ICANN community best support the Board in fulfilling these? * How do we identify a common end user interest among and between these law making efforts? Are end users more than subjects to state jurisdiction - is there a shared common interest to be identified and addressed by the ICANN community? Is the collective interest of end users different from that of state citizens as represented by governments? Does multistakeholderism still offer a critical “post Westphalian” innovation allowing and fostering individual end-user’ engagement internationally, helping counterbalance state-actors’ purely geopolitical interests or are we heading back to multilateralism? The webinar will be an interactive exercise that welcomes questions and discussion from all community members. We will have an interactive quiz during the presentations and an opportunity for Q&A at the end of the presentation. Staff will end the webinar with an Evaluation Survey to allow us to continue to improve these webinars. We hope for this to be a useful point of departure for the upcoming virtual policy forum at ICANN68 (June 22nd - 25th). Thank you.

REMINDER on APRALO Elections 2020
by ICANN At-Large Staff May 26, 2020

Dear APRALO Community, This is a reminder that while the four "VOTE ANNOUNCEMENT" messages are sent to the RALO list for information, only designated persons comprising the ALS representatives and the representative of the Unaffiliated Individual Members will be voting, per Article 30 in APRALO ROP<https://community.icann.org/x/K4GjBg>. Accordingly, only those designated persons will receive the "VOTE CREDENTIALS" messages. This practice of informing the community also helps ensure those ALSes who need to update their primary/secondary contacts are notified of the vote and to contact staff accordingly.
