<p class="MsoNormal">On 10 October 2014, ICANN published <a href="https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2-2014-10-10-en">
Revised Enhancing ICANN Accountability: Process and Next Steps</a>, a document that describes the process to examine how ICANN's accountability mechanisms should be strengthened to address the absence of its historical relationship with the US Government and
 to strengthen its overall accountability and governance processes. The process will be carried out by a Cross Community Working Group (CCWG). A Drafting Team which included two members of the ALAC was convened to propose a Charter for the CCWG. On 05 November
 2014, the <a href="https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2014-11-05-en">Charter</a> was presented and is now undergoing ratification by ICANN's Supporting Organizations (SO) and Advisory Committees (AC).
<br>
<br>
The Charter allows the ALAC to name five people and our intent is to select one per ICANN region (based on citizenship as per ALAC membership).
<br>
<br>
Under the assumption that the charter will be ratified by the majority of ICANN ACs and SOs, the selection of ALAC representatives is now beginning.<br>
<br>
Members must be familiar with, or be prepared to quickly learn about, current ICANN accountability measures and the earlier Accountability and Transparency Review Team (ATRT) efforts (see
<a href="https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/enhancing-accountability-2014-05-06-en">
https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/enhancing-accountability-2014-05-06-en</a>, Section &quot;Inventory of ICANN's Accountability Efforts&quot;).<br>
<br>
Members must also commit to actively participate in the activities of the CCWG-Accountability on an ongoing and long-term basis. This means attending conference calls which will likely last 60-90 minutes per week, ongoing mailing list interactions and the ability
 to travel to any potential face to face meeting, if the CCWG decides to do so. The total length of engagement is likely to be at least 6 months to a year or possibly more.<br>
<br>
The “At-Large Sub-Committee on the Selection of Members for the ICANN Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing ICANN Accountability&quot; (“Selection Committee”) is requesting that interested members from the At-Large Community&nbsp; submit an Expression of Interest
