An idea of extending contacts and cooperation between GAC representatives and At Large Structures on regional and/or national level was evoked at the joint GAC/ALAC meeting at ICANN66. As a pilot, EURALO is conducting a survey among its member ALS'es and independent members to find out to what extent such contacts and cooperation already exist in the framework of regional/national multistakeholder cooperation. Results, if any, will be reported and next steps discussed.
