<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Yes, this excellent.
But I would add that we have been riding on the coattails of our
experiences of previous meetings. We are still mostly members of
a community that has met in person in the recent past. This
social capital will grow thin. It is going to be some time
before big international gatherings will once again be
normalized. I would guess that more regional gatherings will
come back on stream well before that. I would like to see ICANN
put thought, action and money into planning smaller regional
gatherings so that the community can retain and grow the social
capital needed for this kind of endeavour. If the lights are out
for too long, I don't think improved technology will keep the
energy moving. <br>

The Pandemic has presented a unique set of challenges to
people and organizations around the world, the ICANN
community among them. At first blush, the community seemed
uniquely prepared for a move to virtual meetings, given
our already extensive use of tools such as Zoom, Skype and
email. Further, the attendance even hinted at the
possibility of more inclusive discourse and decision
making and talk of a hybrid model for meetings became
common.

Of course, the reality has been somewhat different. We are
reminded of the extent to which we previously postponed
discussions until face to face meetings because of their
greater pructivity and, frankly, greater civility.
Timezones and fatigue contribute to a less than ideal
environment for consensus building.. Finally, virtual
meetings lack the sense of "event" that face to face
meetings enjoyed. Gone is the sense of milestones that
previously existed.<br>

While much of this is beyond our control, technology has
a role to play in making the most of our "virtual
reality." There are tools for improved discussion and
decision-making such as Slack and Loomio. There are much
improved tools for machine translation and greater
linguistic inclusion. There are tools for improved virtual
outreach. Finally there's an even greater role for ICANN
Learn.

The ALAC applauds the hiring of Melissa Allgood and the
development of resources devoted to improved cooperation
and decision-making within the community but we believe
the situation demands more. The best use of the savings,
realized by going virtual, is further investment in these
resources and tools. Expediting the rollout of ITI
(setting clear expectations and meeting them),
incorporation of modern tools for offline threaded
discussions and consensus building and expansion of ICANN
Le<span id="ms-outlook-android-cursor"></span>arn and
further investment is machine translation<br>
