There were many good suggestions put forward, and we've included them as far as possible in the draft framework in the link below: https://community.icann.org/display/APRALO/APRALO+-+ICANN+APAC+HUB+PILOT+FRA MEWORK Proposed Action During the September APRALO call, one of the follow up action was the setting up a working group for the pilot framework. An immediate contribution of the working group could be to work on the translation and localization of ICANN materials, especially for ALSes located in underserved regions and regions where English is not the language of choice. ICANN APAC Hub has put together a specific set of materials that can be used for this purpose. You can find more details here: https://community.icann.org/display/gseasiawkspc/KISA-ICANN+Language+Localis ation+Pilot+Project. During ICANN51, we hope to provide an update on the pilot framework, as well as any progress on actions, in particular the localization initiative. If you are interested to carry on the work in finalizing the pilot framework and/or on the implementation of the specific actions (on the language localization initiative or otherwise), please do let us know by replying to this email before 8 Oct (Wednesday). Thank you and we look forward to your response on this.
