>From the Chair's Desk
Seun Ojedeji, AFRALO Chair

Dear Colleagues,

I trust you are staying safe and maintaining all safety precautions during
this period of pandemic which has impacted us all one way or the other.  On
behalf of the AFRALO Leadership (Myself, Aziz and Sarah), this quarter has
been a source of hope that we will get through this global challenge
stronger as the various countries and economies commenced relaxation of
their lockdown protocols. AFRALO has continued her activities during this
quarter and here are some of the current and ongoing activities of the RALO.

In the Q2 update I indicated that we will develop implementation details of
our FY21 Outreach and Engagement plan within and I am glad to inform you
that the plan is now done and we have started implementation of some of its
items. The 9 action points are hereby listed below:


   1. Increase the number of AFRALO members who are deeply engaged in and
   At-Large activities including At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) and ICANN
   policy advice.
   2. Encourage the greater participation of AFRALO members through
   in-reach activities.
   3. Participate in remote based events (and physical when feasible)
   across Africa and especially in countries without ALSes to make adequate
   outreach to bring them into ICANN Arena: a) African Internet organizations
   and make them interested in joining AFRALO as ALSes; b) Non-affiliated
   African individuals and make them interested in becoming AFRALO Individual
   members.
   4. Make presentations about topics under discussion in ICANN to
   highlight the AfriCANN community effective participation in policy
   discussions.
   5. Exhibit ICANN structures information, activities and working methods.
   6. Where feasible organize local events, in partnership with local
   ALSes, to promote universal acceptance, DNSSEC and cybersecurity skills and
   enhance AFRALO members’ engagement in their respective countries.
   7. Continue to identify universities and academic institutions, organize
   discussions with students and teachers about Internet Governance and build
   young people’s interest in joining ICANN.
   8. Identify AFRALO role model leaders who will coach new members towards
   ICANN leadership positions.
   9. Share AFRALO ATLAS III Ambassadors’ best practices.


With the completion of the implementation plan, our activities regarding
outreach and engagement will be around the 9 action points stated above
which we will be executing until 2021 the action points will be implemented
with respect to the realities of the restrictions that we now have due to
COVID-19. In view of these we continue to welcome volunteers to join us in
executing the plan. More info can be found at this link here

It is no longer news that ICANN69 will be held virtually and I guess we are
getting used to this and getting better at it as well. The last two remote
based ICANN meetings (ICANN67 and ICANN68) were a success, ICANN69 however
will be a special one as it is the first virtual annual general meeting
(AGM) as well, which is usually the largest meeting of ICANN and we trust
that it will be a great experience. As usual we will hold a Joint
AFRALO-AfrICANN meeting, and discussion on the topic will be circled around
Universal Acceptance. The session will also provide us the opportunity to
hear from our GSE team, ALAC leadership, ICANN’s President and CEO and
ICANN Board members from Africa.

Let me use this opportunity to recognise our outgoing and incoming leaders:

Tijani BEN JEMAA has been one of the fathers of AFRALO, contributing many
years of selfless service to AFRALO development and the entire ICANN
community, Tijani’s term on ALAC will end at ICANN69. I would like to thank
Tijani for his enormous contribution to AFRALO, At-Large and ICANN as a
whole, while I trust that he will remain close to the community.

Secretary, Sarah Kiden, will end her term at the Annual General Meeting
(AGM) as well and I would like to use this opportunity to thank her for her
services these last four years during her two two-year terms.  I wish her
all the best as she takes on her new role as ALAC member from AFRALO.

Hadia El Miniawi was our representative on NomCom and I would like to thank
her for her service both on NomCom and also on the Expedited Policy
Development Process (EPDP).

I welcome Mr. Abdeldjalil Bachar Bong who will be taking up the role of
AFRALO Secretary at the end of AGM and look forward to his continued
service to the community in that role.

Finally, I commend members who have provided updates on their activities to
us in this newsletter edition and I would  like to once again encourage us
all to keep us informed about your participation within the ICANN
community, send us a mail on the Afridiscuss list (
afri-discuss at atlarge-lists.icann.org <#m_2253457653009732389_>),and let us
know what current ICANN process you are contributing towards and how we may
support you. Our monthly meetings, which resumed back in September after a
break in August, will continue all through the year and I encourage us all
to join the meeting to make our opinions and voices heard. Our meetings are
open to everyone so feel free to join and contribute to the discussions and
invite others from your At-Large Structure (ALS) or Internet community.

Have a great ICANN69 Virtual Annual General Meeting!

the ALAC is in general agreement with the positions taken in the GAC, SSAC
and BC/IPC statements. In particular, the ALAC appreciates the in-depth and
insightful analysis provided by the GAC, SSAC and BC/IPC.

The ALAC strongly supports the limited and focused number of
recommendations proposed by the ATRT3 report, reflecting the pending
implementation of proposals from previous review teams. In moving forward,
the ALAC advises the ICANN Board to: (1) Swiftly implement ATRT3
recommendation to evolve both specific and organizational reviews as per
Section 8 of the final report; (2) Fully endorse the recommendation to
enhance current methods of Prioritization and Rationalization of
Activities, Policies, and Recommendations (as per Section 10 of the
report); (3) Share the ATRT3 Review Team’s approach to the review process
and methodology behind it, aiming to ensure that all elements contributing
to achieving strategic objectives and their subcomponents are Specific,
Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time-based (SMART) and that all
reporting on these refers to well specified metrics, to be reviewed on a
regular or timely basis (as per Section 9 of the report).

A vast amount of work has been done, but the ALAC believes that if and when
the SSAD is deployed, the probability of its meeting the goals needed by
the communities whose efforts we support will be low. Therefore, in order
for the ALAC to support the EPDP Final Report, the ALAC noted the following
GNSO Council outcomes would be required:

   1. GNSO Council would agree that any Evolution Standing Committee
   recommendation on additional SSAD decision use-cases (that are in full
   accordance with the EPDP Policy Recommendation 9.3) will be treated as
   Implementation and not require further policy deliberations.
   2. Legal vs Natural, Accuracy, WHOIS Accuracy Reporting System and
   Anonymized contact email will be fully addressed with full participation in
   all aspects of discussions by the ICANN Advisory Committees that wish to
   participate. If these issues are deemed to be policy, they must be
   addressed by a group empowered to make policy recommendations, led by a
   qualified, non-conflicted chair. The GAC, ALAC and SSAC must be involved in
   setting the mandate or charter of such groups. The target for completion of
   all work should be no later than April 2021.
   3. The GNSO Council would agree that ratifying the Evolution Standing
   Committee recommendations will only require a GNSO Majority as currently
   called for in the GNSO Policy Manual.
   4. The GNSO Council would acknowledge that deliberations during
   implementation setting of prices for the SSAD must involve the future
   potential users of the SSAD and not only look at cost recovery but the
   actual ability and willingness of SSAD users to pay the prices being set.

The LACRALO statement was in response to the ICANN Latin America and
Caribbean (LAC) Regional Strategic Plan for FY2021-2025. As all LACRALO
countries fall under the LAC Regional Plan, a diverse drafting team from
the region provided feedback on strategy topics such as security, ICANN
governance, unique identifiers system, geopolitics, and financials.
Note: Ratified by the LACRALO Leadership Team and the ALAC.

As a whole, the ALAC supports the ccNSO PDP3.  From an end user
perspective, the ALAC suggested two points to be considered: 1) As a user
of the Internet, the removal of a TLD will mean less likelihood for
confusion as usually a ccTLD would be removed to make way for a new one.
This enhances Trust in the domain name identifiers; 2) As a domain name
registrant, the retirement of the ccTLD could pose a problem when
correspondents are accustomed to use the "old" address using the obsolete
