NARALO's Outreach and Engagement Plan for FY 17 takes a two part approach, First we need to take stock of the gaps and opportunities of the existing ALS population. Once this is done we can use the results of the analysis to help shape the Outreach/Engagement plan moving to close the gaps and recruit potential volunteers and also engage the current ALS volunteers we do have. In FY 17 we wanted to encourage new travellers/ALS members to take advantage of the trips. Except for the IGF USA trip all the other trips focus on single person travel. We decided after the poor representation at the NTEN event to discontinue attending this conference. Another new onus is completing the CROPP trips early in the early vs the late entries. The past submissions have been late winter posing problems for staff. This year three of the five submissions have been in May 2016 for the FY 17 year. Another addition which was not funded in FY 16 is the ARIN trip in October in Houston, Texas. Note that ARIN and NARALO have a MOU and efforts are being made to be colloborative and informative to their community
1.1 Clarity of Plan
To identify the opportunities to enable some of the NARALO members to outreach to a specific audiences to educate them on the value of ICANN, ALAC and specifically NARALO. In addition in underserved sectors we will deliberately do outreach for recruitment to become new ALS's.
