significant changes in the leadership of the At-Large Social Media Working
Group (SMWG). As you all know, over the past year John Laprise began to
transition out of his role as SMWG Chair, and made a call for
SMWG Regional Vice-Chairs to work with the SMWG Members and ALSes in their
regions to promote the work of At-Large.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

rotational, regional SMWG Chair, selected from the region of the upcoming ICANN
Meeting. This will be helpful not only during the current pandemic with
our virtual meetings, but also in our eventual face to face meetings going
forward. To that end, <strong><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Shreedeep
Rayamajhi</span></strong>, APRALO Regional SMWG Vice Chair, <strong><span
