Hello everyone,

 

In the next week we'll be sending out requests for help as well as strategy
and tactics documents. It's clear that global SoMe coordination is
problematic to say the least so we're going to devolve it to the RALO's and
we'll be working with them to supercharge At Large SoM. Here's the draft. 

 

Hello everyone!

 

I'm John Laprise, NARALO ALAC representative and Social Media (SoMe) WG
chair and I'm writing to you today seeking your help. From a SoMe management
perspective, it's clear that managing and coordinating global SoMe for At
Large is an impossible and ultimately futile task, that's why we're
devolving it to the RALOs and that's where you come in. The two attachments
to this email are an overall global SoMe strategy and a SoMe best practices
document. Share these widely within your RALO ALSs and individual members. 

 

Briefly what this means is that I would like each RALO to identify their own
SoMe leaders leverage their expertise, language capacity, and knowledge to
coordinate RALO focused SoMe activities. I will work with the chairs of
these SoME subcommittees to develop capacity where needed and otherwise
provide support. Furthermore, these subcommittees will when relevant,
forward globally relevant content to Erin for posting by the At Large
handle. We may move forward with RALO specific handles should there be
consensus among the RALOs on this. The end goal here is to be responsible to
local communities and be a relevant community to member interests in local
languages.

 

ICANN62 is approaching at the end of the month and I'd like to meet with you
there to further discuss this. Also feel free to email me directly at
jlaprise at gmail.com <mailto:jlaprise at gmail.com>  and be sure to put "At Large
SoMe" in the subject line.

 

Best regards,

 

John Laprise

NARALO ALAC Representative & SoMe WG Chair

 

Let me know how this sounds or any comments you have on this plan. Strategy
and tactcs to follow in two emails

 

Best regards,

 

John Laprise

NARALO ALAC Representative
