Dear APRALO members

In support of Ali's message - you really only have 9 days maximum to get your submissions in to the Leadership Team for consideration before we have to send our APRALO submissions to the Budget committee. 

As usual, funding is limited so that the  APRALO leadership Team will have to consider criteria for selecting the best applications. Key criteria will include the applicant's current participation in APRALO and wider At-Large activities (online as well as, or in place of, face to face) and the benefits of the submission for enhancing engagement and global public interest within the AP region.

Unfortunately we are not going to have much time to help you put these submissions together as we did last year, because we ourselves will be involved in writing up APRALO and other At-Large submissions within the same tight timeframe. But please do ask Ali or myself if you have any questions. 

While taking into account the documents Ali has sent you, please also ensure that your submission includes, and is structured around, at least one of the goals and objectives of ICANN's strategic plan (2016-2020).  https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/strategic-plan-2016-2020-10oct14-en.pdf

Good luck and get your submission in to Ali by the 14th of January at the LATEST.

Dear All,
   Request your full attention to this email and looking for your input. As per the timeline the 15/1/2017 is the final day to submit the request but you have to send it at least 2 days before for APRALO LT review and initial approval. So should you have any funding request which meet the criteria (Read the attached doc) then please do send it to me as soon as possible.


Thanks
