My apologies for not consulting with you all on their prioritization. The questions submitted are as follows: 1. How do we continue to value our volunteers in the ATLARGE community while ICANN refuses to pay their stipend for full participation at the ICANN meetings. It's nice that ICANN is saving funds but we are seeing a massive ZOOM exhaustion and frustration by the community. 2. Where are the ICANN Strategic plans in terms of the promise of Universal Acceptance? Are we on target or window dressing? 3. There are a bunch of activities listed in the budget fy22 in the section "Community Engagement and Services; Public Responsibility and Support" (p.280) and some money and staff attached to it. A few of them are listed. below. The report also says that work on these items "depends on clear community and organizational public responsibility priorities and cross-functional collaboration." (p.282). That's a lot to unpack. Who sets these priorities? How do the RALOs fit into these -- how can they contribute. Some activities (selected):: • Lead research and expertise: Support for public responsibility initiatives within ICANN’s remit in the areas of diversity, human rights, anti-harassment, public interest, and continue to support pre-implementation coordination efforts of New gTLD Auction Proceeds recommendations. Work on human rights initiatives includes those internal to ICANN org and those with community-driven objectives assigned as a result of the planning process. • Lead diversity programs: Fellowship Program, N △ Improve existing and explore possible new mentoring structures for the NextGen and Fellowship programs based on community feedback. △ Identify and deliver effective anti-harassment training opportunities across the ICANN community. △ Community to decide whether the proposed public interest framework can be used to demonstrate how specific recommendations, advice, and public comments are in the global public interest. -ed
