I agree Mwendwa. There is a lot to be said for ALSes being guided by assigned mentors at ICANN meetings – and basically following them around and being introduced to people and getting them up to speed with what the working groups and RALO meetings are about so that they can participate because they are more comfortable with the people they are amongst and are better informed and supported.  This is inreach/ capacity building – which I see as the same thing.

Thanks Dev for the clarification. 

My idea of "effective communication skills " is adviced by my view that more people from ALSes are not able to participate effectively because they have the perceived view that they cannot express themselves well enough,  and even if they can, they don't have the confidence to do so. My view is from observations and interaction with other participants. Probably if we demystify how easy it is to participate in the difference platforms at our disposal,  we can start to see more people in these spaces.

I hope this is clearer.

Dear Mwendra,

A skills analysis was supposed to be done as one of the ATLAS II recommendations which was tasked to be done by the RALO secretariats. As far as I know, some preliminary surveys were done, but didn't get enough responses because many persons didn't understand the intent of the surveys. The discussion by the RALO secretariats at ICANN53 was that the survey will be done over.

Re: your suggestion for a capacity building webinar, can you expand on what you mean by "effective communication skills" ?

Kind Regards,

Dev Anand

Hi Dev,

 

Do we have a skills analysis for ALSs or this is what we are trying to address?

 

I can add "effective communication skills" as part of the topics for capacity building

 

Regards
