[lac-discuss-en] Regional advice on ISOCTT ALS application

[Dev Anand Teelucksingh]

Dear All,

Re: Internet Society Trinidad and Tobago Chapter - Regional Awaiting
Advice from LACRALO.

The chair and secretariat have reviewed this ALS application and note
the following:

According to ISOCTT's bylaws:

 Membership in the Internet Society Trinidad and Tobago Chapter  is
open to  Internet end users in Trindad and Tobago. With the executive
committee in the Organisation dealing with all issues in relation to
Internet Governance, in particular:

 (a)         holding seminars, providing awareness, facilitating
collaboration and serving the needs of the stakeholders in the local
Internet community (including any specific, cohesive community of
interest) in the context of Internet evolution through education,
Internet infrastructure development, Internet standards and
experimentation, public policies and regulatory co-ordination
regarding Internet content and services, and Internet governance;

(b)      promoting activities consistent with the Internet Society
International's purposes in Trinidad and Tobago; and

(c)  encouraging local participation in Internet related policies and
increasing awareness of the above objectives through projects and
initiatives with associated fund raising activities.

The Organisation is structured to support individual Internet users'
Informed  participation in ICANN and ISOC related issues.

The chair and vice chair of ISOCTT (Cintra Sooknanan and Tracy
Hackshaw) are already active in ICANN and are well known to ICANN and
LACRALO.

Thus the regional advice is to accredit this Organisation as a
At-Large Structure.

Kind Regards,

Dev Anand Teelucksingh
