RAPPEL - si vous avez commencé votre demande et que vous n'avez pas encore terminé, n'oubliez pas de le faire et SOUMETTRE avant la date limite! RECORDATORIO: si ha iniciado su solicitud y aún no ha finalizado, recuerde hacerlo y enviar antes de la fecha límite. 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 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 have been completed. Reminder: All five required ATLAS III Prep courses must be completed before the ATLAS III application deadline of 31 May 2019 to qualify for consideration to participate in ATLAS III. The courses are available: * Either via ICANN Learn (English only) before 31 May * Or having attended the ATLAS III Prep webinars which have now all taken place * If you missed a webinar, you are still able to take the corresponding ICANN Learn course (in English only) 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 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. Rappel: Les cinq cours obligatoires de préparation à ATLAS III, doivent être terminés avant la date limite de candidature, fixée au 31 mai 2019, pour pouvoir prétendre à une participation à ATLAS III. Les cours sont disponibles: * Soit via ICANN Learn (en anglais uniquement) avant le 31 mai * OU avoir assisté aux webinaires ATLAS III qui ont maintenant tous eu lieu * Si vous avez manqué un webinaire, vous pouvez toujours suivre le cours ICANN Learn correspondant (disponible en anglais uniquement). 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.

Call for New Membership and Confirmation of current Membership | Re-convened ALAC Sub Committee on At-Large Metrics
by ICANN At-Large Staff May 29, 2019

May 29, 2019

Dear Members of At-Large, On behalf of Maureen Hilyard, ALAC Chair, and Cheryl Langdon-Orr, the current Chair of the ALAC Sub-committee on At-Large Metrics (SC on Metrics), a call for new membership and confirmation of current membership is being issued. The upcoming work of the SC on Metrics will focus on, amongst other things, the metrics requirements outlined in the At-Large Review Implementation Plan as outlined on the Issue #16 of the Recommendation Dashboard<https://community.icann.org/display/ALRW/Issue+16+Dashboard+and+Progress+Ch…>. We are seeking to have at least two formal Member representatives from the At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) in addition to at least two regional members appointed as representative from each RALO. Additional Regional, ALS or Individual Membership involvement is also welcomed. For confirmation of current members, please see the List of current Membership<https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/ALAC+Subcommittee+on+At-Large+M…>. Please check to see if your listed status is correct and advise staff if there is any error or omissions. To join or confirm your membership in the SC on Metrics, please send a note to At-Large staff at: staff(a)atlarge.icann.org<mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org> by 23:59 UTC on Tuesday 04 June 2019. At-Large Staff will then add or confirm your name in the list of Members, and prepare a doodle to arrange a meeting of the SC on Metrics. It is envisaged that meetings will commence in or about the week of 10 June. The ALAC Sub-Committee on At-Large Metrics Wiki Workspace is available at: https://community.icann.org/x/HJfbAQ.. Background: The original ALAC Sub-committee on At-Large Metrics was originally created as part of the first ALAC / At-Large Improvements Project and approved by the ALAC at their February Meeting in 2012, as a part of the activities of the 'parent' Rules of Procedure (ROP) Review Work Group (see https://community.icann.org/x/RJPbAQ) which was designed to conduct a review of the ALAC Member and At-Large participation metrics, including RALO Member and ALS performance metrics / measures / reportage. It continued in its activities until a formal break in 2015 when the Sub-committee paused activity while the ALAC and At-Large were prioritizing their time-critical work in the CCWG on IANA Transition and Accountability, followed by the Second At-Large Review. In November 2018 this Sub-committee was re-convened to again carry out amongst other things the At-Large Review Implementation of identified Issue #16, which has been added to the previously defined primary purpose or prime objective(s). Thank you.

My "Expression of Interest" as a NARALO rep to the ALAC
by Jonathan Zuck May 24, 2019

May 24, 2019

Dear NARALOzens, I noted my acceptance of the nomination to the ALAC and participated in the candidate call but I guess I’ve never formally shared my interests on the list so I figured I should do that now, even if you might already have voted! If you have, congratulations on your participation in democracy, if not, here are some thoughts. "The function of leadership is to produce more leaders, not more followers." --Ralph Nader My name is Jonathan Zuck and I accepted nomination to the ALAC because I believe I’m the right person for the time. Forgive the sports analogy but a coach is often hired because his strengths lie where the team is the weakest. In this case, my long history of cross community policy development at ICANN and my communications skills should prove valuable in steadying the At-large ship in these currently stormy waters. Hopefully, my past year as co-chair of the Consolidated Policy Working Group (CPWG) has begun to demonstrate what I am able to bring to the table. The At-large organization in ICANN is at a critical crossroads for a two main reasons: the recent At-large review and a stagnation in the growth of ICANN giving rise to ever more conservative budgets. Our new Chair, Maureen Hillyard, has focused the community on improving the quality of our policy advice and focusing our outreach on expanding the pool of activist participants in our core functions. Already, the number of people actively engaged in policy development in the CPWG has grown significantly and includes participants of all genders and geographies as has always been intended. The reputation of the At-large, which was damaged by the review, has begun to improve and the ALAC are on a trajectory to greater influence within ICANN. I’ve had the honor to work on, and often lead, many policy development initiatives within ICANN, including participants from all over the community. I have strong relationships in every one of the Stakeholder Organizations (SOs) and Advisory Committees (ACs) and I’m well positioned to form the alliances necessary for the ALAC to have the influence it needs to advance the interests of ends users around the globe. With tightening budgets, a lot of eyes are on the resources that the At-large community requires to do its outreach and engagement. It’s imperative that the At-large demonstrate the engagement of its various members (RALOs and At-large structures) so that its claim to represent the needs of end users around the globe is credible. Demonstrations of broad feedback and activation will help tremendously when the At-large budget is being discussed. If you have made it this far, I thank you and conclude by saying I believe I’m the right match for the ALAC because my skills and experience are the right match for the challenges the At-large community faces in the next few years. Thank you for your consideration.
