[social-media-wg] SoMe Outline going into ICANN62

[Vanda Scartezini]

Indeed in English we have a very interesting social media under Skype. For our region for instance we do have a WhatsAPP LACRALO team in Spanish – majority of members language (we have other languages in the region: English, Portuguese, like me, and French,) since this is the Social Media we use more in our region.
Guess other also have similar groups…

Ok, consider the RALOS:

-linguistic diversity
-economic diversity
-size diversity
-differences in platform usage
-differences in platorm/technology adoption
-differences in Internet penetration rate
-differences in SoMe usage
-differences in what's important

I'm the market research manager for an international non-profit that isn't internet focused. That said, I'm all too aware of how different people approach SoMe. The strategy I've suggested is a bottom up strategy to leverage the capacity within the RALOs to address their members in a language they understand on issues they care about.

The SoMe WG can certainly offer coordination, advice, support, and best practices but managing (and I should have been more clear earlier that managing and coordinating are different functions) is impractical except at the top level for ICANN meetings, events, and the At Large handle.

As chair, I'm not about to tell anyone what to do. What I am doing is proposing a way forward that empowers the RALOs and their members to grow engagement.

Best regards,.

John

I don't think you've made the case that coordinating At-Large Social
Media is impossible, only your saying it to be so.

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.

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.
