Dear all,

Thanks for all your comments.  Good to hear feedback on the curriculum – those we listed are for reference on the basic tracks that we can have and we’ll certainly need to have a more in depth discussion on this, and/or have a smaller group to help drill down on the curriculum planning based on the needs of the regional community, and the time required. Of course, comments are always welcome as usual.

For Dr. Anja, ICANN will be at RightsCon in Manila and we’ll be running a session on ICANN topic such as the IANA transition issue, just to share. Hope to see you there. And yes, you’re right, the proposal below is for APILP for now to be tied to a regular regional event, in APrIGF.

Would anyone have further comments on this or other aspects of my note below, such as that with regard to the Vice Chairs?  

And for those celebrating it, have a great Lunar New Year/Spring Festival/Seollal! Kung Hei Fat Choy!

Best regards,

Kelvin

Dear Kelvin and all,

It is a great idea to integrate the APILP systematically into the APrIGF. I had hoped that we could take this to other fora as well, and had earlier this year suggested that we try to have a session at RightsCon in Manila in March also. However, I think too few of us had planned to be present there to make this work for now. A yearly one-day session at the APrIGF is a great start (though I can also see the point that in the medium to longer term, we probably need to start thinking about a longer event, of the summer school type, instead!).

As for the curriculum, would it be possible to add human rights and the Internet as well? This topic remains a considerable challenge across the region, and I believe different communities (including the business and technical communities) would benefit from capacity building on this issue. I would be happy to contribute on this, as well as on Internet governance as before.

With best regards,
Anja

Dear All-

 I am new GM APTLD, and some of you may have come to know me for quite a while. In my new capacity, I am keen to be of help. It is going to take me some time to catch up with all the developments in the region, but from now on you can count on me (though I will not be able to assume vice-presidency , I am afraid.

The curriculum looks fine, with a zoom-in exercise to follow, I presume. And I can do something on IG at the Forum if need be

Best,

Dear Kevin,

I think this is quite comprehensive curriculum to complete within a day. In a longer run it's better arrange a summer school to cover these topics.

Thanks

Regards.

Dear Kelvin,

Thank you for your efforts and coordination.

I would like to nominate Izumi and Hong as Vice Chairs in a formal manner together with Peng Hwa as chair. 

They will be a great team for APILP.

Best,

Dear all,

Some of us are gathered here in Singapore at the ICANN52 meeting, and while we did not have a formal face-to-face session on APILP, we are glad to have the opportunity to receive some feedback and exchange ideas with some of you on the APILP program. 

Some of the proposals are below:

• General: Following the first run of the APILP in APrIGF in India in Aug 2014, APILP should be more integrated to this regional platform as a capacity-building track, in Day 0 of the APrIGF. This is taking into consideration the catchment of the audience, and predictability in timing. When the annual APrIGF travels across AP region, we’ll also be able to reach different regions.
• The YIGF (Youth IGF, a concurrently running program with the APrIGF) audience to be invited also to the APILP as the content will be useful to bring them up to speed.

• Curriculum: The curriculum for the APILP should be fairly consistent along the following, roughly in line with what was done in APrIGF 2014:
  • Governance track 
    • Internet Governance Ecosystem
    • IG History
  • Technical track
    • Basic topics related to internet security 
    • Fundamentals of DNS, IP Addressing 
  • Emerging issues
    • Such as updates on development on IANA transition, new gTLD, etc

• Vice Chairs: Nominate Vice Chairs to assist in these tasks. Two names have been surfaced for 2 Vice Chairs – Izumi Aizu and Hong Xue

Please let me know if you have any comments on the above.

Regards,

Kelvin
