In other regions, the RALO can be a strong voice in the overall
community. In North America, we are competing with the vast majority of
ICANN contracted parties and the overall Internet and technology
industry, groups that we do not necessarily see eye-to-eye on in some
areas. We need to leverage those areas where we do agree, and find
innovative ways of making our point where we may be in a minority. And in
both, find allies wherever they are.<br><br>

We have tried to have better communication with Joe and Chris as to
events they are doing and we also had a meeting with him in Morocco on
NARALO issues. <br><br>
Perhaps we should be coaching this discussion in more broader terms vs
only the regions strategic plans. <br><br>
One story. <br>
I spoke with David Vvorst at Washington DC to be a speaker on
multistakeholderism at one of his events and the answer was quite
simple. Sponsors have preference. Funding to buy a seat at
the table is an issue. <br><br>

<dd>I'm not sure what you mean by me being wrong in this case. We cannot
make them do something they decide not to do. But as I said and you are
saying, we should discuss it with them with the potential for changing
their minds.<br><br>

<dd>HI All,<br><br>
<dd>Yes Glenn and I have mentioned this several times and asked why we do
not have a plan and the answer we have gotten is that Global Stakeholder
Engagement doe snot think we need a plan. I tend to disagree.
Allan's response on the call when it was brought up was that NARALO can
not make GSE do something they are not interested in doing. I also
disagree with that statement . I think we should directly ask for a
North American Strategy document how does GSE plan on increasing
engagement in the Lower Income areas, in the vast student population,
with disadvantaged communities, with Indigenous communities, with people
with disabilities and special needs. I would like to have that
answer.<br><br>
<dd>These are just some of the things I would like to see in a
strategy<br><br>

the ICANN NA VP ever? <br><br>

<dd>Hi Folks <br>
<dd>On today's webinar on the CROPP program the various
RALO's mentioned that their regions have a Strategic plan.
They also said that these plans are alligned with the their
regions VP's plans ie. LAC and AFrican, Middle
East strategies. <br>
<dd>We broached this with staff asking why North American has
opted not to have a North American plan. Staff to
followup<br>
<dd>Currently we have a CROPP outreach and engagement strategy
for CROPP and if North America chooses to have a
plan we need to discuss this in detail. <br>
