[AFRI-Discuss] Please note and act - ICANN FY17 Budget Special Community Request process has started

[Dave Kissoondoyal]

Dear All,

 

The FY17 Special Community Request process has started.  This process
pertains to a dedicated part of the overall ICANN annual budget that is set
aside to fund specific requests from the community for activities that are
not already included in the recurring ICANN budget. FY17 Special Community
Requests cover the period 1 July 2016 through 30 June 2017.

 

The relevant information is available on the At-Large FY17 Budget
Development Workspace
<https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/At-Large+FY17+Budget+Developmen
t+Workspace>

+Workspace>, including the key deadlines, details of the process, principles
and the request template.

 

IMPORTANT: The members of the ALAC Finance and Budget Sub-Committee (FBSC)
have agreed to the following criteria for At-Large proposals:

 

 

  *   Outreach should not be a major focus. Activities to improve engagement
with existing members is encouraged.

  *   If any request is made on outreach, it should probably go through the
CROPP program and not this special request process.

 

  *   Proposals should include ways in which will make the ALAC and/or the
At-Large community more effective and develop the At-Large community.

  *   RALO requests must go through a bottom up process within their RALO
prior to being submitted for consideration by the FBSC.

  *   RALOs should consider the General Assembly/Summit timeline

  *   They must be explicitly supported by the RALO representative on the
FBSC.

  *   Staff is currently expecting that basic resources for community
communications/printing will be supported through the core ICANN budget, but
that community proposals for printing , etc. will be accepted as a back-up
in case expectations change.  Specific proposals for communications
resources beyond simple printing and editing functions should be prepared
and submitted.

 

IMPORTANT:  Between 4 January and 22 January the RALOs are asked to review
any ALS request or complete a template on behalf of the RALO and send
requests to At-Large Staff< <mailto:staff at atlarge.icann.org>
mailto:staff at atlarge.icann.org>.

 

Kind regards,
