Aug. 26, 2025

Dear APRALO community members, For the first time in over a decade, businesses, communities, regional and local governments, non-profits, and other organizations will have the opportunity to apply for a new generic top-level domain (gTLD). A TLD is the part of a web address that comes after the last dot. For example, in www.icann.org, “.org” is the TLD. TLDs are unique digital assets that can be used to serve diverse cultural, geographic, linguistic, and professional communities, and provide a unique and secure space for customers and constituents online. Today there are more than 1,200 new gTLDs representing brands and businesses like .microsoft and .toyota, cities and regions like .amsterdam, and communities like .kids. Plus, there are gTLDs available in different scripts representing many languages. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is the organization that coordinates the Internet’s Domain Name System. *ICANN* <http://www.icann.org/>*, in partnership with the **Asian, Australasian and Pacific Islands Regional At-Large Organization (APRALO)* <https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/x/AoDdBg>*, is hosting this webinar mainly for prospective and current applicants from the Asia Pacific to learn more about the resources available to help with the ASP and gTLD application processes. * This webinar will cover: - How a gTLD can be used to create a meaningful and trusted digital space. - The availability of financial and non-financial assistance through the Applicant Support Program including information on how to apply and qualify for support. - Introductions to volunteer professional service providers and mentors, willing to provide general business support, application assistance, or technical assistance. - Key dates and milestones ahead. *Join us on 3 September 2025 at 05:00 UTC. **Pre-registration* <https://icann.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_zs1c7B-9RXWFsUkP4mmh6w>* is required.* ****Please feel free to share this invitation with interested persons from the APAC region**** Thank you, APRALO Leadership Team

The details of the two groups are: 1) Board Member Selection Process Committee (BMSPC) According to Article 19.2 of the ALAC Rules of Procedure: "The ALAC shall name a Board Member Selection Process Committee (BMSPC) which shall oversee the entire selection process including the election culminating the process but excluding those responsibilities specifically retained by the ALAC or given to the Board Candidate Evaluation Committee. The BMSPC shall be led by a chair selected by the ALAC and one Member from each region selected by the RALO and ratified by the ALAC. For each region, one Alternate member will be selected by the RALO and ratified by the ALAC who can replace a Member from the same region who for whatever reason is not able to fully participate and such replacement will be at the sole discretion of the BMSPC Chair in accordance with BMSPC guidelines." The group is open to ALAC Members, At-Large community members and to RALO Leaders. However, the membership should include members of the community with significant experience from previous Board Director selected by At-Large process. English will be the working language of this group. The workload of the BMSPC is not expected to be very heavy. The group must be regionally balanced, with one representative from each of the five RALOs. Each RALO will also select an Alternate member in the event one of the original members must be replaced. Please note that no member of the 2025-2026 BMSPC may submit an EoI for the position of the Board Director selected by At-Large. The first meeting of the BMSPC will be scheduled for early September. 2) Board Candidate Evaluation Committee (BCEC) The ALAC Rules of Procedures state the following on the composition and task of the BCEC: "19.3 The ALAC shall name a Board Candidate Evaluation Committee (BCEC) to compile an initial slate of candidates for election to Seat 15. A new BCEC consisting of two Members selected by each of the RALOs plus a chair selected by the ALAC will be convened for each Board seat selection process. Each RALO shall also select an Alternate who can replace a member from the same region who for whatever reason is not able to fully participate and such replacement will be at the sole discretion of the BCEC Chair in accordance with BCEC guidelines." "19.4 The task of the BCEC is to identify applicants who would each make an excellent Board Director.“ “19.4.1 Applicant selected by the BCEC must meet the criteria specified in the ICANN Bylaws Article VI, Section 3 (http://www.icann.org/en/about/governance/bylaws#VI-3 [icann.org]<http://www.icann.org/en/about/governance/bylaws#VI-3%2520%5Bicann.org%5D>). These criteria include but are not limited to being: a) accomplished persons of integrity, objectivity, and intelligence, with reputations for sound judgment and open minds, and a demonstrated capacity for thoughtful group decision-making; and b) persons with an understanding of ICANN's mission and the potential impact of ICANN decisions on the global Internet community, and committed to the success of ICANN. Moreover, the Director selected by the At-Large Community must understand the mission of At-Large and the needs of the global community of Internet end users." "19.5.1 No member of the electorate (Paragraph 19.10) may simultaneously serve as a member of the BCEC." According to 19.5.1, members of the electorate (i.e., members of the ALAC and RALO Chairs who will be serving in 2025-2026) may not be BCEC members.

Additionally, no member of the 2025-2026 BCEC may submit an EoI for the position of the Board Director selected by At-Large. Please note that experience on previous BCECs, on the ICANN Nominating Committee or comparable experience is an asset. The RALO selection methodology must ensure that only suitably qualified candidates are put forward to the ALAC by the RALO Chair. English will be the working language of this group. The first meeting of the BCEC will be scheduled for early September. RALO selections will be subject to ALAC ratification, ensuring that all criteria and requirements are met.
