With that kind of money, ALAC/At Large could afford to back up its policy advice by some solid market research/ surveys in a sample of countries in all regions to find out, what individual Internet end users actually think about some issues within ICANN's
remit. There might be a role for ALS'es here, too, in liaising with local research outfits.</div>

<div dir="ltr">Hi all
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Brief notes, reporting back after a 45min chat I had with Goran today:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><b>I updated on:</b> </div>
<div>* <u>ATLASIII </u>- ATLAS Ambassadors - focus areas - alignment with At-Large Review objectives - program - invitation to the CEO and Board to key events during the ATLAS week</div>
<div>* <u>2020 Organigram</u> - focus on ALT+ and collaboration within RALOs to facilitate effective communication to communities - resource development - building relationships with other sections of the ICANN community (GAC, NCSG) - support from ATLAS Ambassadors
for regional communication initiatives<br>
</div>
<div>* <u>At-Large Communication strategy</u> - ICANN support for joint ALAC-GAC communication paper to the Board - more support needed to improve understanding of policy issues by non-technical community of At-Large & GAC - hours of volunteer time needed to
develop resources - require combined support of the Comms Team, GSE and ICANN Learn for this work.</div>
<div>* <u>CPWG developments </u>- Policy platform and talking points - eg Jonathan's latest videos - Olivier's podcasts - eLearning</div>
<div>
<div>
<div>* <u>Request for ICANN Legal advice</u> on the ALS application by "ISOC SIG Rural Development" - check with ISOC<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><b>Goran's topics:</b> </div>
</div>
<div>* <u>ITI</u> is working on improving communication support for ICANN Learn and other areas - we will invite them to demonstrate what they have done, in Montreal.</div>
<div>* <u>SubPro and DNS Abuse</u> - the Board would welcome ALAC ADVICE on policy issues<br>
</div>
<div>* <u>CCEG IG</u> is to take over the global Legislation and Regulation Tracker - tracks impacts of global L&R activity on ICANN's work. Olivier and Nigel in charge?</div>
<div>*<u> Flexibiilty Fund (USD1mil)</u>. For any project ideas that would add value to the work of At-Large in your regions - complete application form for consideration by the ALAC Chair - requires signoff by each of the other SO-AC Chairs before it is granted.
ICANN Org is putting administration and monitoring mechanisms in place for transparency and accountability - David Olive in charge.</div>
