Dear all I think people are getting confused about the understanding the criteria of who and what an individual member is . 1. I guess people are just not understanding the whole idea of what individual member is. Though it is clearly said and written but there seems to be a problem somewhere.
From my understanding an individual member is the membership who is or who has no affiliations with organization that are part of various ICANN constituences. Most ISOC chapters and members are by default members so we have to make them clear that being affilated to ISOC chapters you are part of the ICANN at large, which seems to be lacking. As they are part of the structure.
2. There is a great role of ALSs and fellowship leader to spread the right news and information. The outreach from ALSs needs to be monitored and guided in accordance to where they are going. I guess the role of fellowship and their outreach need to be tweaked. 3. In most of the case scenario I believe the point of entry seems to be confusing. I mean to say how and what to engage. That may be the reason why its happening due to lack of right outreach to the right people so every person feels and wills to join as an individual member because there are opportunity but they are not understanding the fact that it's a special and priority criteria. 4. Community work and engagement are few of things which needs to be as a priority for any of the criteria. 5. The community has to be clear so effective awareness is needed Regards Shreedeep Rayamajhi On Dec 3, 2017 5:55 AM, "Maureen Hilyard" <maureen.hilyard@gmail.com> wrote:
Sorry that was sent too early, accidentally This is really opening up a can of worms. have to take people's word on TRUST.
It has already been intimated that we might need to get the membership lists of all our ALSes to check on whether people are legitimately NOT members - I can just imagine trying to keep track of the members of PICISOC or any ISOC In India.
Becoming an individual member to be able to contribute on your own behalf rather than a group's view is legitimate, but how does a single person compete against a chartered organisation for regional funds to do outreach so that they can fulfil the other ICANN expectations of ALses? ØKeeping the community of individual Internet users informed about the significant news from ICANN ØPromoting outreach activities in the community of individual Internet users ØDistributing (through posting or otherwise) an updated agenda, news about ICANN, and information about items in the ICANN policy-development process ØDeveloping and maintaining on-going information and education programs, regarding ICANN and its work ØMaking public, and analyzing, ICANN's proposed policies and its decisions and their (potential)regional impact and (potential) effect on individuals in the region; I started to make mention of the fact that we could have to ask people who have disagreements with their ALS managements and leave, that they may have to bring along a letter saying that they are no longer members. But what a hassle. But it is one of the thngs that I would like to discuss with an volunteers of a group of APRALO members to discuss ALS criteria, expectations and metrics. Anyone want to join, drop me a line, and I will get staff to create a wiki space for us. Maureen

but we also have to be mindful, that if former ALS members leave an organisation, they may require a formal letter indicating that they are not longer a member as part of the RALO application process. This will

Thanks Rajnesh.
The current mechanism is a self-declaration by the applicant. We have been finding that this doesn't always work. As you have pointed out, it is not always easy to keep track of the affiliations of organizations that a person is a member of. We will consider revising the wording or providing an example.

So I wonder out loud what is the process to ensure that an individual applicant is not already a member via an ALS? This could get messy as one could belong to one of many ALS’ - like I do for example. Sometimes hard to track, be aware of.

Hi Afifa
If Buddha is already a member of ISOC Kolkata then he cannot be an individual member? He should already be involved.
