Re: [APAC-Discuss] APRALO discussion points from the APAC-APRALO meeting
Hi Maureen First - a really GREAT summary - thanks And a thought I had this morning. What about a project to identify - and share - talents/skills within our region. Just a list that says this group/person has technical skills etc or APNIC provides free training, etc, or people like me can bore groups rigid with lessons on communications regulatory policy, etc. I know ICANN has material etc, but I bet that many of us also have resources as well and should share Holly On Thu 26/06/14 6:42 PM , Maureen Hilyard moarimh@gmail.com sent: Hi everyone I have summarised the key points that APRALO members raised during yesterdays meeting with Kuek, outlining APRALO priorities/focus areas. They are as follows: 1. COMMUNICATION APRALO is a large regino - how can we improve communication between APAC and the regions (including the diversity of end-users within these sub-regions) so that local issues are appropriately addressed and coordinated? 2. LANGUAGES How do we coordinate the involvement of ALSes to provide local translations of key ICANN/APAC/APRALO documents? 3. CAPACITY BUILDING How do we address and prioritise capacity building needs of end-users within APRALO subregions? 4. OUTREACH How can we ensure that there is equitable use of available resources to encourage ICANN outreach to the ALSes within the subregions and who need support for extending outreach into their respective communities about ICANN, its role within the internet ecosystem, and ICANN issues which ultimately impact on APRALO end-users ? Just to recap on APAC's priorities - based on a survey they did a while ago: •Capacity Development •Stakeholder Participation •Awareness Building •Language Localisation •Regional Meeting Format Our focus areas are not too different from what APAC has identified as their focus areas - but I would like to present our priorities from a more sub-regional perspective because we cannot impose a one-size fits all model across our region. Kuek stated that there would be budget constraints but if ICANN wants to improve engagement by its members (and that's what the thematic papers are all about from this ATLAS meeting), then they have to consider our regional (bottom-up) needs and perspectives. Please send me your feedback asap. I would like to send our focus areas to Kuek perhaps by the end of next week. The sooner we get our ideas to him, the sooner we can work together on the final priorities list - and then Kuek and the other VPs can negotiate with ICANN about an appropriate budget. Looking forward to hearing from you.I would like to again say that it has been great meeting you all at this meeting and I look forward to keeping in touch, and meeting up with you again at future meetings.

Actually, this is the same as one of recommendations we discussed in thematic grouop 5. It's good to know each ALS has Subject Matters Experts respectively. regards, Takaaki Higuchi (2014/06/26 18:21), h.raiche@internode.on.net wrote:

As TH mentions below, this is the same issues raised in Thematic Group 5 and this is largely the same issues raised in ATLAS I and every time we discuss outreach. We are a much larger more diverse group now than ATLAS I, so I hope we can get some new innovative solutions to progress forward. On a personal note, it was great to meet so many new reps and engage in the dialogue.

That is a great idea Holly. I will incorporate it into the capacity building focus point - as you say identifying and using local talent within the region for capacity building activities - which could assist with decreasing the costs of outreach...

I know ICANN has material etc, but I bet that many of us also have resources as well and should share
