Estimados, cinco integrantes de nuestras ALSs tienen la oportunidad de 
concurrir a ICANN 53 Buenos Aires. Les pido a aquellos que puedan aprovechar 
esta facilidad, que lean con atenciÃn y se postulen cuanto antes, dado el corto 
tiempo disponible.
Quiero agradecer a Dev y Juan Manuel por su arduo y rÃpido trabajo, que 
posibilitÃ que esto salga en tiempo. Y tambiÃn a Rodrigo de la Parra, por su 
vital intervenciÃn.
Nos queda aÃn una plaza mÃs por otra vÃa: serÃ el ganador de la trivia sobre 
ICANN y Ralos, de la cual ya hemos adelantado algÃn detalle oportunamente. Esta 
estÃ muy pronta a salir.
Creo que nuestra respuesta como LACRALO, debe ser una mayor participaciÃn en 
todas las actividades que nos requieran, en LACRALO, ALAC, ICANN. 
Mientras mÃs aportemos, mÃs obtendremos.
Saludos cordiales

Alberto Soto

Call for CROPP proposals from LACRALO for travel to ICANN 53 Buenos Aires 
meeting

Deadline for proposals to be submitted to At-Large CROPP RT is May 10 2015

Dear All,

ICANN's Community Regional Outreach Pilot Program (CROPP) allows RALOs to apply 
for funding for 5 travellers to go to regional events in order to:
1) Build local/regional awareness and recruit new community members;
2) effectively engage with current members and/or "reactivateâ previously 
engaged ICANN community members; and
3) Communicate ICANNâs mission and objectives to new audiences.

The funding for a traveller is limited to the flight, hotel and per diem for up 
to three days and two nights.

Applications for CROPP requires working with the LACRALO's chair and 
secretariat (Alberto Soto and Humberto Carasso), along with LACRALO's members 
from the At-Large CROPP Review Team (Dev Anand Teelucksingh, Juan
Rojas) to submit proposals for review by the At-Large CROPP Review Team (CROPP 
RT) and ICANN's Global Stakeholder Engagement (GSE) Vice-President, Rodrigo De 
La Parra. Proposals must be approved by the CROPP RT and Rodrigo before such 
proposals can be processed by ICANN. Travellers must submit a trip assessment 
after the trip to report on how the specified goals and purposes of the trip 
were accomplished.

ICANN's Latin American and Caribbean Regional Strategy also offers funding for 
one more traveller to apply for CROPP.

To date, LACRALO has used 2 out of its 6 CROPP travel allocations for FY15 
which ends June 30, 2015.

The CROPP RT has taken note of the CROPP's program intended benefits, in 
particular "More effectively engaging with current members and/or 
"re-activatingâ previously engaged ICANN community membersâ and that other 
constituencies has used CROPP to attend ICANN's F2F meetings.

As such, LACRALO's leadership and the At-Large CROPP RT are seeking expressions 
of interest for travellers from the region to consider apply for CROPP funding 
to attend the ICANN's 53 meeting in Buenos Aires, Argentina which begins June 
21 2015.

Such CROPP proposals should take into account the following:
- travellers must reside within the Latin American and Caribbean region.
- travellers should be a member of an ALS in LACRALO.
- Funding for travellers for CROPP purposes is limited to 3 days, 2 nights.
However, if an applicant can use non-ICANN funds (personal or from some other 
source) to expand the trip beyond 3 days and two nights, that would help the 
proposal.
- Purposes/Goals and expected outcomes for CROPP proposals should continue to 
be specific, relevant and measurable.

Some ideas for expected outcomes from a CROPP proposal to attend the ICANN 53rd 
meeting:

- For less engaged LACRALO members, such travellers should commit to join a 
minimum of one At-Large Working Group (WG) and attend and participate in 
LACRALO calls and At-Large WG calls after the ICANN F2F meeting to share 
his/her expertise with the At-Large Community.
Also, such less engaged LACRALO members should discuss with the LACRALO's 
representatives (leadership and ALAC members that are attending the LACRALO
meeting) their ideas for their future engagement in At-Large before the ICANN 
F2F meeting.

- For more engaged LACRALO members (who would have attended previous ICANN F2F 
meetings), such travellers should note what activities during the ICANN F2F 
meeting they can make a contribution to (in spite of the final meeting schedule 
yet to be published) and agree to help mentor less engaged LACRALO members 
present at the meeting. Also, re-commit to attend and participate in LACRALO 
calls and At-Large WG calls after the ICANN F2F meeting to share his/her 
expertise with the At-Large Community.

- Travellers should investigate and note possible opportunities for actively 
participating in LACRALO activities such as the LACRALO showcase on Wednesday 
(are there speaking opportunities, for example) and LACRALO monthly meeting as 
well as engagement opportunities to raise awareness of LACRALO and At-Large 
such as meeting with the ICANN fellows each morning and/or volunteering to be 
at the ICANNâs Newcomerâs booth.

All travellers must submit a detailed trip assessment after the meeting 
detailing how they were able to achieve the stated goals and purposes of the 
trip. These trip assessments will be reviewed by the CROPP RT and Rodrigo de la 
Parra to guide how CROPP will be used in the future.

Discussions in the CROPP RT has identified that a proposal involving a 
combination of mentors and mentees working together could be a good fit for 
CROPP.
Interested travellers should contact the CROPP RT members from LACRALO, Dev 
Anand Teelucksingh (devtee@xxxxxxxxx) and Juan Rojas (jumaropi@xxxxxxxxx) to 
work on a proposal before May 10 2015.
