Thanks Paul, and thanks for the support, motivation and encouragement you gave us to Join the ALS. Thanks also to the entire ISOC Kenya community for supporting the initiative, and to Barrack for facilitating a smooth process and talking to the right guys at AFRALO and At-Large. There is much the chapter can achieve, and we will. Now the hard work begins ______________________ Mwendwa Kivuva, Nairobi, Kenya twitter.com/lordmwesh On 17 March 2014 04:35, Paul M <paulitrix@gmail.com> wrote:

To: "Kivuva" <Kivuva@transworldafrica.com>, "Barrack Otieno ( otieno.barrack@gmail.com)" <otieno.barrack@gmail.com> Cc: "Afri-Discuss (afri-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org)" < afri-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org>, " alac-internal@atlarge-lists.icann.org" < alac-internal@atlarge-lists.icann.org>, "ICANN At-Large Staff" < staff@atlarge.icann.org>
Dear Mwendwa and Barrack,
ICANN's At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) is pleased to inform you that (187) Internet Society Kenya Chapter (ISOC Kenya) been certified as an At-Large Structure (ALS). The ALAC greatly appreciates your group's interest in involving individual users in ICANN and looks forward to working with you and your colleagues.
The purpose of ALS certification is to recognize that your organization meets the necessary criteria to involve individual Internet users at the local or issue level in ICANN activities, and that your organization will support its individual members' informed participation in ICANN efforts that affect end-users.
The ALAC is eager to promote a productive working relationship between your organization, other ALS, and the ALAC (and ICANN in general), and your input on how we can make this a success would be greatly appreciated.
We would like to offer some initial tools to help your organization keep its members informed (about significant news from ICANN and information on ICANN policy-development efforts) and engaged in activities of interest:
- Point of Contact for your Organisation: Please send an email to <mailto: staff@atlarge.icann.org> staff@atlarge.icann.org identifying the names and email addresses of one or two individuals who will be the point of contact for information and correspondence regarding ICANN At-Large. If this changes, please let us know.
- At Large Mailing Lists. There are many At Large email lists, for each region; you can sign up for them and manage your subscriptions at: <http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo> http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo . The points of contact you identify will automatically be added to your region's list just for accredited ALSes to discuss regional issues and to the mailing list for Staff announcements (only Staff can post messages to that list); you are invited to join others as you wish.
- ALS information. Information about your organization will be shared with the At-Large community to enable individuals interested in your group's activities to contact you, and to encourage cooperation with other groups interested in ICANN activities in your geographic region. Please complete and email the form at the bottom of this note to <mailto: staff@atlarge.icann.org> staff@atlarge.icann.org.
- ALAC website. The ALAC website ( <http://www.atlarge.icann.org> www.atlarge.icann.org) is a good source for ICANN news and information of interest to individual Internet users. We encourage you to provide your members with a link. The ALAC relies on volunteers to translate information into multiple languages. Translations of documents on the website are welcome and should be sent to <mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org> staff@atlarge.icann.org.
- At-Large Regional Websites. Regional wiki webpages also have been created to distribute information (including in local languages) on activities, events and issues of particular interest to people in each region. These are maintained by the community. They are:
African Region:
<http://www.afralo.org> www.afralo.org
Asia/Australia/Pacific Region:
<http://www.apralo.org> www.apralo.org
European Region:
<http://www.euralo.org> www.euralo.org
Latin America/Caribbean Region:
<http://www.lacralo.org> www.lacralo.org
North American Region:
<http://www.naralo.org> www.naralo.org
We have included an ALS Starter Kit that includes key information on ALAC and At-Large communication tools. We have also included the Beginners Guide to Participating in At-Large which explains the organization of the At-Large community and how to participate in its activities.
We look forward to working with you and your organization's members to advance individual Internet users' interests within ICANN. If you have any questions, or need additional information, please contact us at
<mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org> staff@atlarge.icann.org.
Sincerely,
The At-Large Advisory Committee
