CROPP RT Report
by Darlene Thompson Feb. 1, 2014

Feb. 1, 2014

Hi all, This is just to let you know that our proposed trips for Glenn to go to ARIN and for him to go to NTEN are being pushed up through the bureaucratic steps with no glitches so far. We have yet to get a final ruling on either but I think they are looking good. Unfortunately, Garth and Glenn had to withdraw their proposal for the ADA Symposium because of the exorbitant registration fees required. This has now opened up an additional two CROPP slots for North America. So, out of the 5 slots we have been allocated, we sill have 3 left to fill. I would encourage everybody to keep their eyes peeled for outreach opportunities for the region that you might like to attend and represent NARALO's interests. The requirements for a CROPP proposal can be found here: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/Terms+and+Obligations+for+At-La… The proposal form for CROPP requests can be found here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1cAXbv724pPraGfaII1OHhJ-Yxnxtj-gtXFvWW0IBFG… Thank you from your CROPP RT team, Allan Skuce and Darlene Thompson

NARLO Outreach Efforts
by Garth Bruen Jan. 21, 2014

Jan. 21, 2014

Hello NARALOers(-ites?), We have started our 2014 Outreach efforts in earnest. One of the areas for which we have gained considerable interest is in recruitment of groups representing disabled Internet users. This topic has taken off globally within the At-Large community and we will have positive engagement on it over the next three ICANN meetings. But this is just one effort! In the last month we have on-boarded to new NARALO ALSes due to our outreach and more are on the way. I have asked Murray McKercher to probe your brains for suggestions. No suggestion is a bad suggestion! Murray will contact you one at time and ask for a list of 10 potential groups for contact. There are huge voids within At-Large that need to be filled and you can help! Thanks, Garth ------------------------------------- Garth Bruen gbruen(a)knujon.com 617-947-3805 http://www.knujon.com Chair of ICANN At-Large North America (naralo.org) Twitter: @Knujon Skype: gobruen "If history is deprived of the Truth, we are left with nothing but an idle, unprofitable tale" -Polybius

Reminder for RALOs to submit At-Large Travel Requests for ICANN's Community Regional Outreach Pilot Program (CROPP)
by Dev Anand Teelucksingh Jan. 20, 2014

Jan. 20, 2014

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 8 weeks before any such travel to an event takes place.
