Possible RALO Petition Process to Suggest Additional ICANN Board Director Candidates Selected by the At-Large Community
by Program Admin Jan. 22, 2017

Jan. 22, 2017

Dear Regional At-Large Organization (RALO) Members, As per Section 19.9 of the ALAC Rules of Procedure<http://tinyurl.com/ALAC-RoP-2016-09>, the Board Member Selection Process Committee (BMSPC) is informing RALOs their opportunity to start possible petition process and suggest adding to the Board Candidate Evaluation Committee (BCEC) Slate other Candidates who have submitted Expression of Interests (EoIs) for the ICANN Board Director position. The successfully petitioned Candidates, who have received support through a formal vote of at least three of the five RALOs, will be included in the Final Slate. As the culmination of the ICANN Board Director selection process, the BMSPC will organize an election among the Final Slate of Candidates, and the electorates will be At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) Members and Regional At-Large Organization (RALO) Chairs. Background Seat number 15 of the ICANN Board of Directors is dedicated to a member selected by the At-Large Community. This seat is currently occupied by Rinalia Abdul Rahim, who assumed the position at the end of ICANN51 (2014 AGM). Her 3-year term will be completed at the closing of ICANN60 (2017 AGM). Pursuant to Section 19 of the ALAC Rules of Procedure<http://tinyurl.com/ALAC-RoP-2016-09> (version adopted on 20 September 2016), the At-Large Community process for selecting the next Board Director began in September 2016, with the appointment of the Chairs and Members of the BCEC and the BMSPC. The BCEC is responsible for outlining Candidate requirements and expectations, calling for and evaluating EoIs, and compiling the (initial) BCEC Slate of Candidates for the Board Director position. The BMSPC oversees the entire selection process for the At-Large Board Member, including the development of the selection timeline and the election finalizing the process. To learn more information, please visit their workspace<https://community.icann.org/x/Vxi4Aw>. This selection process is planned to be completed by Friday, 21 April 2017, with the announcement of the successful Candidate on that date. The successful Candidate will serve for a 3-year ICANN Board Director term starting at the end of ICANN60. View the detailed timeline here<https://community.icann.org/x/ORq4Aw>. List of All Applicants & BCEC Slate of Candidates By the deadline of 18 November 2016 at 23:59 UTC, the following six Applicants have submitted completed EoIs. The Applicants, listed in alphabetical order of the last name, are: * Sebastien Bachollet (France) * William Michael Cunningham (United States) * Hago Dafalla (Libya) * Alan Greenberg (Canada) * Nigel Phair (Australia) * Leon Felipe Sanchez Ambia (Mexico) On 16 December 2016, the BCEC concluded its Candidate Evaluation process and announced that the following Candidates will be named as the (initial) BCEC Slate of Candidates, be automatically included in the Final Slate, and go forward to the next stage of the selection process organized by the BMSPC. The Candidates, listed in alphabetical order of the last name, are: * Alan Greenberg (Canada) * Leon Felipe Sanchez Ambia (Mexico) Possible RALO Petition Process Pursuant to Section 19.9 of the ALAC Rules of Procedure<http://tinyurl.com/ALAC-RoP-2016-09> (version adopted on 20 September 2016), the BMSPC process involves the option of possible petitions by RALOs to suggest adding Candidates to the Final Slate. RALOs can only suggest Candidates who had previously submitted an EoI to the BCEC during the current selection process; namely, the six Applicants listed above. Candidates will be added only if they receive support through a formal vote of at least three of the five RALOs; each RALO shall vote according to its respective rules. Subsequently, the Final Slate of Candidates will proceed to an election by the ALAC Members and RALO Chairs, which is culmination of the ICANN Board Director selection process. Possible RALO Petition Process starts from now. Please note the following two deadlines: * By Thursday, 19 January 2017 at 23:59 UTC, each RALO willing to add Candidates to the Slate should have identified additional Candidates and notified the BMSPC. * By Sunday, 29 January 2017 at 23:59 UTC, in case of petition, all RALOs should have decided whether they support any suggested additional Candidates and notified the BMSPC. Kindly note that RALOs have the option to identify and/or support additional Candidates but are not required to do so, if they believe that only the BCEC Slate of Candidates should be in the Final Slate. On Tuesday, 31 January 2017, the Final Slate of Candidates, who will proceed to the election, will be announced and their EoIs will be published without disclosing their personal/private information. Next Steps On 12 January 2017, a Single Purpose Cross RALO call will be organized for RALOs to discuss the BCEC Slate of Candidates and the option of suggesting additional Candidates. Call details and other relevant information will follow. Any questions regarding the process should also be directed by email to program-admin(a)atlarge.icann.org<mailto:program-admin@atlarge.icann.org>. They will be answered as quickly as possible. On Behalf of Tijani BEN JEMAA, BMSPC Chair Heidi Ullrich, Ariel Liang, Terri Agnew, and Yesim Nazlar At-Large Board Member Selection Program Admin Staff

FY18 Additional Budget Requests - Process has Started
by ICANN At-Large Staff Jan. 16, 2017

Jan. 16, 2017

Dear All, The FY18 Additional Budget Request process has started. This process pertains to a dedicated part of the overall ICANN annual budget that is set aside to fund specific requests from the community for activities that are not already included in the recurring ICANN budget. FY18 Additional Budget Requests cover the period 1 July 2017 through 30 June 2018. The relevant information is available on the At-Large FY18 Budget Development Workspace[community.icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__community.icann.org_di…>, including the key deadlines, details of the process, principles and the request template. IMPORTANT: In 2016, the members of the ALAC Finance and Budget Sub-Committee (FBSC) agreed to the following criteria for At-Large proposals: * Outreach should not be a major focus. Activities to improve engagement with existing members is encouraged. * If any request is made on outreach, it should probably go through the CROPP program and not this special request process. * Proposals should include ways in which will make the ALAC and/or the At-Large community more effective and develop the At-Large community. * RALO requests must go through a bottom up process within their RALO prior to being submitted for consideration by the FBSC. * RALOs should consider the General Assembly/Summit timeline (APRALO is scheduled for a General Assembly in FY18) * They must be explicitly supported by the RALO representative on the FBSC. * Staff is currently expecting that basic resources for community communications/printing will be supported through the core ICANN budget, but that community proposals for printing , etc. will be accepted as a back-up in case expectations change. Specific proposals for communications resources beyond simple printing and editing functions should be prepared and submitted. IMPORTANT: Between now and 16 January 2017 the RALOs are asked to review any ALS request or complete a template on behalf of the RALO and send requests to At-Large Staff<mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org>. Kind regards, Heidi Ullrich, Silvia Vivanco, Ariel Liang, Gisella Gruber, Nathalie Peregrine, Terri Agnew and Yeşim Nazlar ICANN Policy Staff in support of the At-Large Community E-mail: staff(a)atlarge.icann.org<mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org> Website: atlarge.icann.org<https://atlarge.icann.org/> Facebook: facebook.com/icann<https://www.facebook.com/icannatlarge>atlarge<https://www.facebook.com/icannatlarge> Twitter: @<https://twitter.com/ICANNAtLarge>ICANNAtLarge<https://twitter.com/ICANNAtLarge> [unknown.png]

EuroDIG - Info letter 9/16
by sandra hoferichter Dec. 21, 2016

Dec. 21, 2016

Image_1 Image_0 TALLINN, 6-7 June 2017 Info letter no. 9/16 With this last info letter of the year we would like to wish you - more than ever - a peaceful Christmas and a joyful start into 2017. Hopefully next year will be a better one for Europe! ● Summary of the IGF in Mexico from a regional perspective Apart from the fact that this was one of the best organised IGFs, it was a successful meeting for all national and regional IG initiatives (NRIs) as well. NRIs had been given a three-hour main session and while it might be seen a bit of an overload to invite more than 30 speakers, it was a strong signal that the global IGF community recognise the value of independent NRIs. This important session was well organised, thanks to a joint effort between NRIs themselves, the IGF Secretariat, and the MAG. Additionally NRIs met in a coordination session where <https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org/about/dsd/director> Mr Juwang Zhu, Director of Division Sustainable Development, UN DESA was listening to the specific perspectives and challenges NRIs are facing. He was very positive about supporting NRIs in their future work. NRIs are seen as key contributors to the IGF process by bringing up the topics truly bottom up - and in Europe we have the biggest concentrations of NRIs! Unfortunately the EuroDIG proposal for a session at the IGF was not selected for inclusion in the programme, so we decided to invite European stakeholders for some drinks instead and organised a quiz on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of EuroDIGJ. We held one reception together with the <https://www.eifonline.org/> European Internet Forum (EIF) and had the chance to connect with MEP’s which participated in great numbers at the IGF. Another chance to clink glasses was the drawing of the 10 winners of our quiz, where all former EuroDIG hosts dedicated one typical present from their counties. Most former hosts could even hand over the present personally. All gifts found their way to the winners, either during that evening or the day after. The first price went to Zack Coleman from the UK. He won the trip to Tallinn! Find here some <https://www.flickr.com/gp/euro-ssig/747485> impressions from our activities at the booth and during the socials. But before this year is over: ● Take part in the SEEDIG and EuroDIG - Call for issues… …and let us know which topics you would like to discuss next year. The <http://www.eurodig.org/get-involved/call-for-issues/> call for issues is open and we are looking forward to receive submission until 31 December 2016 / 24:00 UTC. ● Register now for the public planning meeting on 31 January in Tallinn… …and discuss the clustering of all submitted issues, the overarching theme and a first draft programme! The meeting is open for everyone but online <https://www.eurodig.org/get-involved/planning-meeting/?no_cache=1> registration is mandatory.

Fwd: ICANN News Alert -- Successful Candidates Announced for ICANN58 Fellowship
by Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond Dec. 20, 2016

Dec. 20, 2016

Dear EURALO members, on today's EURALO call we discussed the EURALO events at the forthcoming ICANN meeting in Copenhagen (11-16 March 2017), in particular relating to outreach. It was decided to work with the Outreach and Engagement working group, the Capacity Building Working Group, as well as the Regional Vice Presidents Jean-Jacques Sahel and Michael Yakushev, as well as Adam Peake, who is helping us out with Outreach and leads the work about the Civil Society engagement at ICANN. I mentioned both the Fellowship (see below) and the NextGen program (young people/students from the local area - the European Region in our case). Please be so kind to find the announcement of the fellowship below. Should we identify the fellows from our region and engage them *before* they arrive at the ICANN meeting? Kindest regards, Olivier -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: ICANN News Alert -- Successful Candidates Announced for ICANN58 Fellowship Date: Tue, 20 Dec 2016 15:35:10 -0500 From: ICANN News Alert <no-reply(a)external.icann.org> Reply-To: no-reply(a)external.icann.org To: ocl(a)gih.com ICANN News Alert ICANN <http://www.icann.org/> News Alert https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2016-12-19-en ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Successful Candidates Announced for ICANN58 Fellowship 19 December 2016 ICANN announces 56 individuals from 41 countries have been selected to participate in ICANN's Fellowship program at the 58th Public Meeting in Copenhagen, Denmark 11-16 March 2017. 35 of the selected candidates will be attending their first ICANN meeting. Seven have attended an ICANN Meeting in the past but now will be part of the Fellowship program and fourteen are Fellowship Alumni with various levels of ICANN experience. Nine of the Alumni will take on the additional role of coaching Newcomers. These successful candidates represent all sectors of society including; civil, government, ccTLD operations, academia, facets of the business community, technical, security and end user groups.
