Hi, I just want to endorse Don’s comment and suggest that one possible fora or partner for this might be the ADB ? You may know that earlier this year they established ICT as a specific sector rather than just an enabler.
Could we ask them to think about hosting or partnering ? They also have a strong commitment at the ADB to supporting capacity building. Duncan

Thanks Kelvin.
I’m wondering if we’re ‘preaching to the converted’ and perhaps we should identify non-traditional fora - particularly for stakeholders that don’t often participate.
Perhaps some large conferences of businesses, religious groups, professionals, government officials, etc.
Singapore is obviously a hub for many, many regional and global conferences. And, we clearly have resources in Singapore. So, perhaps you could identify some large conferences coming to town and contact the organisers to see if there’s any interest in their community.
Just thinking…

Dear all,
The comments period for the APILP Terms of reference (ToR) closed last week.
Thanks Don for the feedback. Indeed, the program in Delhi included both technical and non-technical issues, and the continued breadth should be continued and reflected in the ToR. I've attempted to bring this out better in the revised ToR in my amendment (in cyan), as attached. Apart from that, there are no substantial changes made to the ToR after the Delhi meeting. The final copy of the ToR (in pdf format) is attached for your retention.
Next Steps
As the next step, we can focus on the points below, such as the training programs stocktake, and the identification of gaps/opportunities (as described in the ToR), as we look towards the preparations for the next APILP session:
(a) Conduct a stocktaking and rationalization exercise on the relevant courses and training in the region, and outline these programs in a single repository, so as to prevent duplication of resources [In progress, with the training program in circulation];
(b) Determine the gaps and opportunities in the Internet industry with regard to training and capacity building in the region, and plan the training curriculum for APILP based on these gaps and opportunities [To do];
Next possible timeline for the 2nd APILP would be Apricot 2015 (Feb 2015), Fukuoka, and we could aim for this. Please keep a look out for our next call/email. Thank you.

Kelvin:
Thanks for this.
With respect to the Terms of Reference…
I saw the session held in Delhi as a ‘backgrounder’ for people new to the space. There seems to be a never ending demand for this type of introduction that seems basic three years into the community, but in day one is over whelming.
APTLD ran a very similar program in one of my first meetings which we held in Bali. This was attended by ccTLDs managers, a full day program during day 0 of our meeting, and the room was packed. I was surprised, because I thought everyone knew all this - or should have. But it was apparently a useful refresher then - and probably would be today too, as we saw how many veterans were in the room in India.
Your terms of reference focus on non-technical issues for a technical manager. Yet, the program presented in India also included technical issues for a non-technical manager. I hope that in the future such continued breadth will be included and reflected in the ToR.
Early this year I was hoping that someone would come up with a degree or diploma or certificate program in this area - with a specialty in ccTLD management. Six months later, I don’t realistically think that this is going to happen.
But I have discovered that there is already a wealth of opportunities available. The Diplo Foundations course in Internet Governance seems to be the Gold Standard. And from there, we have a large number of specific courses/training programs. And then we have some ad hoc programs similar to what was delivered in India and perhaps also similar to the ICANN Academy (though I’ve not studied that).
So, a lot of background, but here’s where I think value can be added to the community:
1) Let’s get as comprehensive a list of training providers and their courses available as we can. If people send me links, I can add them to the spreadsheet that I started earlier this year.
2) Let’s see what’s missing - then fill it.
But, in the meantime, let’s refine the program that was delivered in Delhi and make it available at any reasonable size gathering in the region as a Day 0 event. APRICOT 2015, APRIGF Macao, ICANN 54… etc

Dear all,
The pilot run of the APLIP and the pre-event of Delhi APrIGF was successfully held on 3 Aug. Thanks for your support thus far! (My apologies for the silence between then and now.)
We also had a discussion on the future direction of the APILP, during the APrIGF session on 5 Aug. The notes for this meeting, together with a brief write up of the pilot run of the APILP, with some photos, is attached for your information.
Two immediate follow ups for APILP are as below: 1. Inventory of Programs: As Don has already initiated (thanks so much for this Don!), we're looking to come up with a inventory of available programs in AP region. Please feel free to add to that. 2. Finalization of ToR (by 25 Aug): We will finalise the Terms of Reference document over email (rather than at the face-to-face meeting in Delhi), as most working group members were unable to be at the Delhi meeting. The window for final comments will close on 25 Aug (Monday). Please do share your comments if any. ToR is attached.
We'll share further details on future APILP coordination calls in due time. Thank you.

1) Nomination of Chair and Vice Chair Process of nomination and election of Chair and Vice Chair for the APILP to follow the following election process: Having a nomination period (21 days), during which members are allowed to put forward the names. Self nomination allowed. If nominating a 2nd person, to allow 7-10 days within the nomination period, for nominated party to accept the nomination APILP TOR should consequently include the terms of reference for the Chair and Vice Chair too, such as: Period of term: (Proposed) 2 years Number of terms allowed: (Proposed) 2 Cheryl agreed to help guide the nomination/election process of the Chair/Vice Chair for APILP There was a suggestion to have an interim Chair/Vice Chair to help lead discussions, before the Chair/Vice Chair are elected/take office. There was also a suggestion that ICANN as secretariat could help in the interim. 2) On APILP proposals Discussion on the specifics of the proposal will continue when the Chair/Vice Chair is selected. APrIGF secretariat (Yannis) updated the meeting that the APrIGF pre-event proposal (1 day workshop as proposed Ang Peng Hwa) was accepted by APrIGF MSG. She also reminded the meeting that Xue Hong has previously helped to include APILP as an agenda in APrIGF in Delhi, the proposals and suggestions on the details for APILP could be discussed. 90 mins is scheduled for this. For the proposal, there was also a suggestion to proactively look into the mode of learning, including having hybrid modes of remote participation and e-learning etc, to complement more traditional face-to-face sessions. 3) Follow up for APILP-WG To have another ad-hoc call 3 weeks later (around 2nd week of July) to check back on progress and provide update. This is also aligned to the timeline for election. ICANN will in the interim, continue to move the project along as secretariat. Nomination period: Start 16 June (Mon), end 6 July (Sun). Proposed 2nd APILP call on 8 July (Tuesday) UTC 4am (12pm SGT) - call to be confirmed. (ICANN APAC Hub will continue to post key development and documents on the ICANN community wiki here: https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=48334730.

Dear all,
Thanks to all who have provided your comments to the TOR! The comment period for the TOR for the APILP closed last Fri, 6 June.
The latest draft TOR document is attached. For your ease of reference, I'll also be posting the key development and documents for this APILP initiative on the ICANN community wiki here: https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=48334730
Proposed Next Steps
On the way forward for APILP, we've received some suggestions. As secretariat for this group, may we propose the following:
1) Nomination of Chair and Vice Chair: At the APILP Open Working Group discussion during ICANN49 Singapore in March 2014, we asked for volunteers to be part of this Working Group (WG). You are included in this group as you have indicated your interest to be part of the WG - thanks for this. We are inviting nomination of Chair and Vice Chair to this APILP-WG.
2) On APILP discussion during APrIGF Delhi (Aug): There were some suggestions for APrIGF in Delhi, Aug, in relation to APILP, including a presentation of the APILP workshop proposal. We hope to seek comments to the two proposals (a) and (b) below.
(a) For the APILP-WG to have a face to face meeting to discuss the TOR during Delhi APrIGF (Aug);
(b) To do a first run of the APILP during Delhi APrIGF (Aug), initial draft proposal as attached (Proposal 1).
For (a), as the APrIGF is still another 2 months away, assuming we do go ahead with TOR discussion then, there is still some time to further flesh out some of the proposed approach and proposals that we've received in the meantime. This can then be discussed together with the TOR if necessary. For (b), we welcome feedback to Proposal 1 (such as curriculum, fees, participant numbers etc), as well as other proposals if there are.
3) Others: Other suggestions, if any, are welcome too.
APILP Conference Call
In view of the above, we'd like to also propose to do a call to go through 1) (Nomination), and if possible and time permits, discuss the proposals in 2) on 13 June (Fri) 2pm-3pm Singapore time (UTC 0600-0700). We will share the call details and the names of the WG members in a subsequent email.
Thank you.

FYI, Hong has kindly helped to submit a workshop proposal on this APILP initiative which opens for discussion during APrIGF Delhi from 3-6 Aug which is around 2-month time away.
While I agree with Penghwa that acting quick is essential, APrIGF shall give us another good F2F opportunity to further discuss about the future of this initiative as well.
Would encourage any of you here to attend and join the session. More information could be found at http://2014.rigf.asia. The agenda is under development though.

Hi Sunny and Hong.
I had been travelling for about a couple of weeks and was looking for the draft ToR that Peter had amended. Curiously enough I did not see it until this ToR v3.
The ToR includes what I—and I suppose some others too—consider ambitious. I’m concerned that if we take as long as we did in crafting the ToR as our APrIGF CFP template, then many moons might pass. And the APrIGF had the benefit of a couple of runs.
May I suggest this: we do the run. And we meet f2f to aim to conclude the ToR.
I am proposing a 1-day session because I am thinking of the Indian bureaucrats who may form a sizeable group. It’s really a primer. I’m also concerned that a longer duration would not be manageable. Also, I’m concerned that if it’s too extended, people would have a hard time extending their stay.
Appended below is the draft curriculum. Essentially—background+context, the technical aspects (to explain the root server), the stakeholders and their roles, and then the current status.
I have highlighted the speaker for PM1 as I was in Sri Lanka and met Rohan Samarjiva and he had expressed interest to attend if we invite him. Rohan is a friend, ex-professor at Ohio State in telecom, a former DG of Sri Lanka Telecom but now heading a think-tank in ICT policy. He is therefore comfortable in both the ITU and Internet space and therefore not hostile to the Internet.
Speakers for the other slots are open.
Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks, Sunny, the modifications look very good. Regarding 5.1, yes we would need to compose the WG sooner rather than later.

Thanks for circulating the ToR v3 for comments and thanks to Peter for providing his suggested changes.
APNIC suggested changes are in the attached version 4 document.
With regards to APILP or APIGLP, we prefer with APILP as it is broad and inclusive which can cover a number of topics.
5.1.a This is a very important and is a very big job but who will do it?
Regards Sunny

Kelvin I seem to be having trouble posting to the list - please forward this for me - thanks

Thanks Kelvin, This is an excellent start - it seems to have been a productive meeting at ICANN Singapore, and I am sorry I missed it.
I have made some suggested changes in Version 3 of the document which I attach. In proposing these, I note first how much easier it is to critique other's work than it it is to create it - thanks again for the first draft, which sets the scene very effectively.
Other than some changes such as numbering and some grammar edits, I think there could be some productive discussion about a couple of items:
1. The name - as its about Internet Governance, it seems sensible to me to include that in the name of the document and the name of the exercise. Its not just about "Internet Leadership" which is being done in many areas, of registry management, law, security etc, but specifically about IG. I think its healthier to acknowledge and display that focus.
2. I am not accustomed to describing the Asia Pacific area as "APAC", so started to re-name it AP - but didn't continue....happy to defer if there is a widespread acceptance of that abbreviation.
3. I am somewhat concerned at the current focus on the domain name industry: I have highlit the term a few times. I think both that there is more to the IG topic than that, and also that the domain name industry can be expected to be busy taking care of itself through such organisations as APTLD, ICANN and the newly formed Domain Name Association ( "DNA"). Although I think we need to be careful about opening the door to an unlimited range of topics, I have added IP address allocation mechanisms, multistakeholderism, online human rights, network security and network neutrality as possible topics. In any event, these should be signals, rather than instructions to those who will eventually draft the actual curriculum.
4. I have separated out and made clearer the tasks of preparing the curriculum from preparing business and financial plans to support it.
I hope these suggestion might be thought useful in furthering the discussion - thanks.
Regards
Peter
