Moroccan music festival just before the ICANN meeting in Marrakesh
by Roberto Gaetano May 21, 2019

May 21, 2019

Hi all. We have an excellent opportunity to be exposed to the local musical culture when attending the ICANN meeting in Marrakesh. In Essaouira - close to Marrakesh - the Gnawa Festival (see http://www.essaouira.nu/calendar_festival_gnaoua.htm) will take place from 20 to 23 June. The ICANN meeting will start officially on the 24 June - but some activities are likely to start earlier. Aziz Hilali, whom we all know, told me that it would be possible to organise day trips from Marrakesh to Essaouira to allow people to go there for the festival. The reason why we strongly recommend day trips from Marrakesh is twofold: people who want to attend only one day can do so without changing hotel and, last but not least, it will be extremely difficult to get a hotel in Essaouira during the festival. As a matter of fact, having had myself difficulties in finding accommodation in Essaouira off-season I can well believe that for these hot dates the place will be fully booked already now, three months in advance. Anyway, long story short, I have prepared a Doodle poll and ask you to fill in your preferred dates should you be willing and able to join this initiative. Based on the response, busses could be organised for the popular dates. We need to have a first idea about whether there is enough interest - if this is the case, we can go to the next step: Aziz will announce this option when presenting ICANN 65 later this week and we can start making concrete plans, including scheduling the arrival date accordingly. Of course, please feel free to forward the Doodle poll url https://doodle.com/poll/f4cq8vwnu56uzws9 to your other communities and stakeholder groups. If anybody is not comfortable to put their names in the Doodle page - where all participants to the poll can read them - please feel free to email me directly mentioning the possible dates of interest. Best regards, Roberto

IMPORTANT: ATLAS III Application Period - NOW OPEN UNTIL 31 MAY 2019
by ICANN At-Large Staff April 15, 2019

April 15, 2019

** Version Française à la suite de la version Anglaise ** ** La version en Español esta bajo la version en Frances ** ** Dear All, On behalf of Maureen Hilyard, ALAC Chair, this is to announce that the application period for the third At-Large Summit (ATLAS III) scheduled to take place 4-7 November 2019 during ICANN66 in Montreal is now open until 23:59 UTC on 31 May 2019. ATLAS III will be an assembly of the future leaders of At-Large, focused on developing and nurturing their abilities to become thought leaders and change agents who will effectively implement what has resulted from the At-Large Review Process. A total of 60 At-Large community members will be selected to participate in ATLAS III in addition to the regular At-Large leadership. Current and incoming At-Large leaders do not need to complete an application. IMPORTANT: All the key information that you will need to apply for participation in ATLAS III is available on the ATLAS III Application Guidelines<https://community.icann.org/display/ATLAS3/ATLAS+III+Application+Guidelines> Workspace. The application is divided into two parts. 1. The first part is critical as it assesses whether you belong to At-Large; you are already an active member within At-Large or in another section of ICANN, on behalf of At-Large; and you have completed a series of compulsory ATLAS III prep courses<https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=105389506> about ICANN and what it does. You will only qualify to move onto the second section if you answer these first questions appropriately. 2. The second part will assess your experience and potential capacity for a set of criteria that were considered important skills and abilities for our policy leaders in At-Large. The ATLAS III prep webinars will begin the week of 22 April 2019. An ATLAS III Selection Committee will select the participants based on a review of the applications. At-Large members are encouraged to consult their Regional Leaders on any questions they may have related to the selection criteria or their application. Kind regards, At-Large Staff ** Chers Tous, Au nom de Maureen Hilyard, Présidente de l’ALAC, nous vous annonçons que la période de candidature pour le troisième sommet At-Large (ATLAS III), prévu du 4 au 7 novembre 2019 à l’occasion d’ICANN66 à Montréal, est désormais ouverte jusqu’à 23h59 UTC, le 31 mai 2019. ATLAS III sera une assemblée des futurs dirigeants d’At-Large, centrée sur le développement de leurs capacités à devenir des leaders d’opinion et des agents de changement capables de mettre en œuvre efficacement les résultats du processus d’examen d’At-Large (At-Large Review Process). Au total, 60 membres de la communauté At-Large seront sélectionnés pour participer à ATLAS III en plus de la direction régulière d’At-Large. Les leaders actuels et futurs/entrants d’At-Large n’ont pas besoin de remplir une demande. IMPORTANT : Toutes les informations essentielles dont vous aurez besoin pour postuler à la participation à ATLAS III sont disponibles dans l’espace de travail « Directives d’Application à l’ATLAS III <https://community.icann.org/x/cgB1Bg> ». L’application est divisée en deux parties. 1. La première est essentielle car elle permet d’évaluer votre appartenance à At-Large ; vous êtes déjà un membre actif au sein d’At-Large ou dans une autre section d’ICANN, au nom d’At-Large ; et vous avez suivi une série de formations obligatoires de préparation à ATLAS III<https://community.icann.org/x/wh1IBg> sur l’ICANN et ses activités. Vous ne pourrez passer à la deuxième section que si vous répondez de façon appropriée à ces premières questions. 2. La deuxième partie évaluera votre expérience et votre capacité potentielle pour un ensemble de critères qui ont été considérés comme des compétences et des capacités importantes pour nos responsables politiques d’At-Large. Les webinaires de préparation à ATLAS III débuteront la semaine du 22 avril 2019. Une comité de sélection ATLAS III sélectionnera les participants sur la base d’un examen des candidatures. Les membres At-Large sont encouragés à consulter leurs responsables régionaux pour toute question relative aux critères de sélection ou à leur candidature. Cordialement, Personnel At-Large ** Estimados todos, En nombre de Maureen Hilyard, Presidenta del ALAC, anunciamos que el período de solicitud para la tercera Cumbre de alcance (ATLAS III) programada para el 4 al 7 de noviembre de 2019 durante la ICANN66 en Montreal está abierto hasta el 31 de mayo de 2019 a las 23: 59 UTC.

IMPORTANTE: toda la información clave que deberá solicitar para participar en ATLAS III está disponible en el espacio de trabajo de las Pautas de solicitud de ATLAS III<https://community.icann.org/display/ATLAS3/ATLAS+III+Application+Guidelines>. La solicitud se divide en dos partes. 1. La primera parte es esencial ya que evalúa si usted pertenece a At-Large; ya es miembro activo de At-Large o en otra sección de la ICANN, en nombre de At-Large; y usted ha completado una serie de cursos de preparación obligatorios de ATLAS III<https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=105389506> sobre ICANN y lo que hace. Solo calificará para pasar a la segunda sección si responde a estas primeras preguntas de manera adecuada. 1. La segunda parte evaluará su experiencia y capacidad potencial para un conjunto de criterios que se consideraron habilidades y capacidades importantes para nuestros líderes de políticas en At-Large.

REMINDER: Age Diversity Survey From: Ergys Ramaj Executive: Sally Costerton FOR: All Community Leaders REQUEST By Friday, 19 April 2019, all community leaders should please complete an age diversity survey, as well as encourage their respective groups to participate in the community-wide survey, which is available at https://go.icann.org/agesurvey <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001kkcEK_FaRly7S_x2oLN-36gtDtT3Bva5myNHGfEPeRn3…> .

The survey is available in Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. It takes only twelve to fifteen minutes to support diverse and meaningful engagement. Please email any questions to agesurvey(a)icann.org. REMINDER: Volunteers for IRP IOT From: Samantha Eisner Executive: John Jeffrey FOR: SO/AC Chairs REQUEST Volunteers are needed to re-compose the Independent Review Process (IRP) Implementation Oversight Team (IOT), which will develop published Supplemental Procedures for ICANN’s Independent Review Process. The work of the IRP IOT is important to ICANN’s accountability and sets many procedures around how IRPs are administered. BACKGROUND Under the ICANN Bylaws, ICANN is required to consult with the SOs and ACs regarding the establishment of the IRP IOT. Last October, the IRP IOT produced an interim set of Supplemental Procedures that were adopted by the ICANN Board during ICANN63, and now a final set of Supplemental Procedures is needed. For many team meetings, the IRP IOT rarely had more than the five participants required for a quorum, and frequently faced challenges meeting a quorum. The goal of this team is to reach a final set of Supplemental Procedures that reflects input from across the ICANN community, which prompts this request for additional volunteers to join. We are thankful to those who have been regular participants thus far, and hope that they continue, but this is a very important and heavy load to be shouldered by so few community members. ACTION Please promote the opportunity to volunteer as a member of the IRP IOT within your community. For more information, please contact Samantha Eisner at <samantha.eisner(a)icann.org>. Information Sharing NEW: Chair's Blog: ICANN64 Meeting and Board Workshop From: David Olive Executive: David Olive FOR: All Community Leaders INFORMATION SHARING Read the latest blog from ICANN Board Chair Cherine Chalaby here <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001kkcEK_FaRly7S_x2oLN-36gtDtT3Bva5myNHGfEPeRn3…>.
