Dear All, ICANN has launched a Community Regional Outreach Pilot Program (CROPP) in which each of the 5 RALOs can apply for funding up to 5 "regional" outreach trips (up to three days, two nights) before the end of June 30 2014 (the end of Fiscal Year 2014). Similar to how RALO budget requests were reviewed by the ALAC Finance & Budget SubCommittee (FBSC) before submitting to ICANN Finance, an At-Large CROPP Review Team (CROPP RT) was established by the ALAC to: * review and approve RALO travel requests to the CROPP to ensure that the objectives of the travel requests are in line with ICANN’s strategic and regional engagement strategies as well as At-Large outreach strategies. * confirm with the relevant regional Stakeholder Engagement Vice Presidents that the purpose/goals of the travel request are consistent with ICANN’s strategic and regional engagement strategy. * submit the travel requests to ICANN once approved by the CROPP RT. RALOs should note the following terms and obligations as established by the ICANN's CROPP and those by the ALAC at https://community.icann.org/x/zC6fAg RALO leaders in coordination with their RALO's members of the Outreach SubCommittee (https://community.icann.org/x/cqfbAQ) wanting to submit travel requests are expected to complete the travel request form at https://community.icann.org/x/_S6fAg There will be an At-Large Briefing Session to discuss the CROPP and the process by which At-Large Travel Requests are sent to the At-Large CROPP Review Team. Please complete the Doodle at http://doodle.com/puf95pud2etkh52b by 1600 UTC on Wednesday December 11 2013 to select the date and time for this conference call.
