All: The attached Social Media Engagement Toolkit is designed to help promote At-Large through our global membership for the purpose of engaging those on the fringes of the At-Large community and other Service Organizations (SOs) and Advisory Groups (AC) that are not necessarily familiar with the importance of engaging the end user in the Policy Development Process at ICANN. The Toolkit provides information and easy-to-follow instructional steps to promote the ICANN 72|AGM meeting through your own social media (SM) channels effortlessly. We need all of you to support this endeavor, so get started tweeting and posting! Gracias. Eduardo Díaz Co-Chair At-Large Social Media Working Group (SMWG)

The audience will be able to contextualize the importance and role these play in the Internet Ecosystem. - The second part of the presentation will analyze in depth the crossroads in which AFRINIC (African Network Information Center) finds itself where it is being sued by one of its clients.

At-Large ICANN Learn courses
by Maureen Hilyard Sept. 20, 2021

Sept. 20, 2021

Dear At-Large community Really great to see that since the launch of the At-Large ICANN Learn courses in May 2021, that so many have taken up the courses and others have registered ready to start. https://www.icann.org/en/blogs/details/new-icann-learn-courses-about-the-at… Our latest figures show that : "154.1 At-Large: Welcome to Our World" has 11 registered but not yet started, 3 in progress, 43 completed. "506.1 ICANN Policy Development: A Guide for At-Large Participants" has 29 registered but not yet started, 5 in progress, 44 completed. But don't forget, there are also many other courses which will help you learn about how other groups work within ICANN as well. Well done to those who have been working hard to learn how they can become engaged with At-Large 🤓. Maureen
