UA case studies in 2021
by Maria Kolesnikova March 31, 2021

March 31, 2021

Dear UA Communications WG Members, UA Local Initiatives Leads and UA Coordination Team, The Universal Acceptance (UA) case studies are an important tool to showcase the successful implementations or EAI and UA readiness by the different stakeholders. The UASG regularly publishes case studies that highlight the lessons learned and best practices adopted to resolve the UA issues. In 2021 we would like to ask for you to help identify any relevant stakeholders or organizations that can be featured in the coming case studies in the below categories: 1. An Organization or Business EAI or UA successful implementation Entities that updated their systems to become UA ready or supported EAI. 2. The role of Governments in supporting UA readiness An initiative or campaign lead by a Government agency that supported UA readiness or EAI support. 3. Registry system UA/EAI support A domain registry or a registrar that updated their systems to become UA ready and support EAI. Please share with us your suggestions in the nearest two-three weeks. We're looking forward to working with you to showcase those stories!

Comms WG's plans and members activities - actions needed
by Maria Kolesnikova Feb. 17, 2021

Feb. 17, 2021

Dear Communications WG members, First of all, I would like to kindly remind you to actively participate in the Comms WG's bi-weekly calls and provide your input on documents and other materials that are requested through the WG's mailing list. Caution! Practical Exercise 1: Secondly, as we are highly involved in the communications of UASG and on UA thematic, I strongly recommend all of us (and our colleagues in the UA subject) to be subscribed to the existing UASG social media resources to be aware and updated on its activities and provided content. Moreover, there is a need for regular sharing and spreading of the content, if appropriate. Here are some quick links for you: Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsZQcTPv4Q2TRdx4w7V1ouw [youtube.com] <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.youtube.com/channel/UCsZQcTPv4Q2TRdx 4w7V1ouw__;!!PtGJab4!sjcYzEbObvqb_PKugBlL5bxt57M10uFMUHYV7EXkvwEZdvlQwxQjqkH FYib4lnQ2GRxvZfjp$> Facebook https://www.facebook.com/uasgtech/ [facebook.com] <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.facebook.com/uasgtech/__;!!PtGJab4!s jcYzEbObvqb_PKugBlL5bxt57M10uFMUHYV7EXkvwEZdvlQwxQjqkHFYib4lnQ2GQ4AoO0Z$> Twitter https://twitter.com/UASGTech [twitter.com] <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/twitter.com/UASGTech__;!!PtGJab4!sjcYzEb Obvqb_PKugBlL5bxt57M10uFMUHYV7EXkvwEZdvlQwxQjqkHFYib4lnQ2GSPvqaaU$> Linkedin https://www.linkedin.com/company/uasgtech/ [linkedin.com] <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.linkedin.com/company/uasgtech/__;!!P tGJab4!sjcYzEbObvqb_PKugBlL5bxt57M10uFMUHYV7EXkvwEZdvlQwxQjqkHFYib4lnQ2GXsmu ENC$> Hashtags - #Internet4All, <https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/peopleofuasg?__eep__=6&__cft__%5b0%5d=AZVR yYBHBNxOZzkrl4X-0MgsXNHKSMzhMP4JIIfRwm5lVyw952fDK2EB0LRw5Cnvby1x3TEuQxL59TQi R3IOyKRmWtnrclPD5vP9IVyEwNqGje46CaA2I2-IfGqpR6fMQJcqy5Zf6HPgEieOW_sooKDG&__t n__=*NK-R> #PeopleofUASG In accordance with the FY21 Action Plan the maintenance social media presence of UASG is one of the Comms WG's goal. So, when you are subscribed, you will be also able to look through the current UA and UASG-related content, check its outcome and in case you have any thoughts and practical ideas on its further development to increase the number of followers (from the UA-related key audiences), please feel free to share them with the group. On my behalf, I would like to say that it is highly appreciated and thank ICANN Communications Team for their huge work done on the development of these resources and producing the appropriate content for UASG community and on UA topic. Caution! Practical Exercise 2: Thirdly, the WG has started to review of the existing mechanism to manage the calendar of events for use by the UASG community placed at <https://uasg.tech/events/> https://uasg.tech/events/ The goal is to make it easy for UA local or regional events to be regularly added into the calendar. For this purpose it was considered to spread the following form and invite other UASG WGs members to fill it in when needed: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSejQT6Xk0ZWf0YZdHo7IUWp_cEN7-vMFE4c XAohUTU1wvNJQQ/viewform I kindly invite the Comms WG members to look through the form and send comments if you feel there is something else to be changed/improved by the next call on February 22. And the last but not least, the Comms WG makes it work in compliance with the approved UASG FY21 Action Plan <https://uasg.tech/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/UASG-FY21-Action-Plan-20200813 .pdf> and the list of Comms WG activities was planned for the period July 2020 - June 2021. Now the WG's members are able to follow the current status of these plans (what was completed and what we continue to work on) in the provided files: * WG FY21 Plan and progress: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CXDwasdtc-KTgFhvPfqLxRjvYqMTw2WM/view?usp=s haring * Case studies and blogs tracking : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CYp4jt6LfVNQ3g451Y1cmuq5xhVtfkHw/view?usp=s haring Looking forward to our further joint work, Maria Kolesnikova Chair, UASG Communications WG Universal Acceptance Steering Group Twitter <https://twitter.com/UASGTech%20%5btwitter.com%5d> | Facebook <https://www.facebook.com/uasgtech/%20%5bfacebook.com%5d> | Youtube <https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsZQcTPv4Q2TRdx4w7V1ouw%20%5byoutube.com%5 d> | Linkedin <https://www.linkedin.com/company/uasgtech/%20%5blinkedin.com%5d> | uasg.tech <https://uasg.tech/>
