Hello and welcome everyone to the EURALO Virtual General Assembly!

<COMMENT>Comment to Agenda B3: EURALO ALS: ISOC Norway did have some problems getting access to the ALS document. When access was granted, the format of the document was hard to understand, hence we have not given any updates. The format presented here is OK and we should now be able to give our input.</COMMENT>

merci Mr Chair!

I have to leave now thanks for Reports and all the work and best wishes to everybody

Thank you Oliver !

thank you Olivier! best wishes!

thank you Heidi and nice team!! for your help and organizing our work!

This year we launched the At-Large Regional Policy Engagement Program (ARPEP) which included closer relations between the regional leadership, GSE and At-Large staff support.

The workspace is at: https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=126424249

I wanted to raise the creation of a working group to study the European strategy on data and how we can contribute from Euralo to this process, starting by commenting on the Data Governance Act just published by the European Commission and other possible initiatives in this area.Is it interesting? How to proceed to start this working on this issue?

Hi all

Welcome Goran!

Interesting idea Miguel. thank you for putting it forward.

Thank you all and now for the Round Table - Warm Welcome to our guests

About the new proposed laws in Europe. We are tracking and will as we do update the community about our findings

We can hear you

data governance act and digital services act

you mean goran?

Safe travels, See!

Yes, there is also a proposal coming about Cyber Sec

And a new proposal for the NIS directice

indeed

@Goran we (in Ukraine) are extremely interested to discuss Digital Service Act, new proposals to NIS, e-Privacy directive and other new EU legislative initiatives!

This is our last paper we did about it: https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/ge-004-15jul20-en.pdf

Thanks Goran

We will update (but not before Christmas…)

Welcome Maureen, Goran, Maarten, Leon and Natalia. Very happy to have you with us today

Happy to be hear - always good to engage with you

maybe the best company, team and place to spend this night, Sebastien! thank YOU!

Natalia you are the next (5’)

yes, I am-)

@Goran it's just a virus - why ICANN can't fix problems with virus?))))

))))

Thanks!

Well said, Natalia. Never let a good crisis go to waste!

LOL Chris!!

Thank you, EURALO, for your innovation! The European Roundtable hosted by EURALO during ICANN69 was widely seen as a big success. Joanna’s sessions during ICANN68 and ICANN69 had some of the highest participation numbers. Also, EURALO held two ALS post-69 read outs.

+1 Heidi

Thanks Heidi

You are setting bar very high.

He did not say, but he might have meant it 😇

I have it too!

Congrats Seb and the team, Apologies I have to go now.

Thank you Abdulkarim!

to use all opportunities, yes!-) Thanks @Chris!-)

@Maarten, correct LACRALO will be hosting a roundtable based on the successful session hosted by EURALO.

As one of their sessions during ICANN70.

Let's have a PDP or a CCWG on making the earth flat & 1 time zone only. ;-)

Swenglish

FOr me it is "double Dutch" ;-)

You know that ICANN controls time?

And that was not a full joke…

http://www.iana.org/time-zones

indeed!

Goran. That's not ICANN … literaly

just to share that LACRALO meeting is inclusive and members can speak in main UN languages. they are positive and sharing. as French Caribbean is a real opportunities because we have many challenges common for our regions

Lutz, do not understand?

I think EURALO can copy the meeting example with adigo and translation

Sounds so familiar, Leon :)

@Göran - Mission creep?!?

The history of this registry is long and not subject of ICANN PDPs

Yes Goran you can stop the time and all will be solving our issues about jet lag ;)

Natalia thanks for the newsletters. hope to help more in 2021

Sometimes when I do zoom meetings it feels like time slows down.

thanks a lot @Betty!

No longer jet lag -- we can call it net lag!

Very appropriate, Marita

Turn off your Video and take a nap. That's something you can't do on the plenum

so the COVID was a bad impact for fellows.. we learning and understand less... everything is complexe and inclusive binput of real meeting is in remplacable

Just because something is not under a PDP does not mean that ICANN does not do it.

IANA is a part of ICANN´s mission.

IBTD on the time zone registry. It's only a trusted storage.

We do not have a penny on the content

and o think more than ever ICANN need more mentor to help for a better inclusion fellows and newbees

we are working on it in euralo too @Betty

And Lutz, you are right. We are a place we where store something that does not originates from us.

ok @Sebastian. I used the chat

Thanks Betty

A key element in all this is the social capital we build when we are together f2f. So far, we have been riding on this wave. We hope it won't last long enough to run out of steam

The co-vid situation, I mean

@Marita - you have a point, it can’t go on like that forever

Learning from each other within At-Large extends, as Manal explains, to sharing views and experiences with other constituencies, such as the GAC.

Completely agree @Marita. Interaction is an essential part of how we do things and how we reach agreements.

Thank you Sebastien

There is a “COVID-fatigue”. In Italy, for instance, the response by the people during this second wave is already different from the excellent response in the first wave

And I assume that this will apply worldwide, it is a human nature

@Roberto --happening here too (Canada)

GDPR exists but EU is moving on - Data Governance is the catchword. Thus - look to the future.

Data Governance is more meaningful than when people see GDPR - another acronym

@Roberto indeed .. happening everywhere .. it’s a human nature ..

Standard joke Göran

@Erich - Data Governance on the basis of the GDPR...

the Budapest convention additional protocol reinstalling whois might effectively add to this challenge. Interesting times ahead.

@Joanna there are (there is) European countries, which only formally implemented Budapest convention(((((

See ICANN’s announcement on its response to the to the European Commission’s Public Consultation on Standard Contractual Clauses for Transferring Personal Data to Non-EU Countries at: https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2020-12-10-en

IMHO, future of GDPR is endangered by the pressure of weakening encryption and lawful access, which could open doors to misuse and even more crime.

thank you goran for your interesting thoughts and answer!

Goran offered an excellent challenge in his response. We should keep it in mind

Thanks very much to everyone. Thanks to the presenters for their excellent comments.

Happy holidays - and hope to see you in 2021!

@Maureen thank you very-very much for your care to all members of At-Large community!

Indeed, you are right Marita!

Stay safe! Have a great holiday

Thank you all!

Congratulations EURALO on your virtual GA 2020 !

Maybe you can set up a session with me where you can ask any question you want

thank you all

and regards from AFRALO

Thank you everyone. Take care and enjoy the season

Happy and safe holidays!

Great round table. See you all soon -- relatively soon.

@Goran YES!!!!

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year 2021

Challenging times indeed, but it is amazing to see how resilient the ICANN Community and At-Large in particular, has been able to navigate these difficult times

And about 2km from my new apartment, and you will all be welcome for a drink, ICANN71 or 74 :-)

Happy Holidays .. Stay Safe Everyone !!
