Re: [wg-e] looking for volunteers to work on Parts 2 through 5 of DNSO WG-E



Dear Kilnam and wg-e members,

With great pleasure, I would like to volunteer for some items suggested here.
These are the things I have done during the past months.

>4. video
> usa(?)
> korea(ebs)
> (more)

I have interviewed deeply-involved ICANN people during the last LA meeting
including Esther, Becky, Christopher, Paul...... around 15 - 17 people, 
which has been being edited by broadcasting company(Education Broadcasting). 

>2.2 Outreach Seminars and Tutorials
>1. APTLD Internet Seminar Tour
> KL, Seoul, Bangkok, Beijing, Hong Kong,...

Under the auspices of APTLD, I have visited those above-mentioned cities 
including Taipei with "Internet Governance" presentation material,
which is posted in the APTLD website, www.aptld.org.

If any of wg-e members is interested in this kind of activities,
we can share more ideas on how to develop this in a more systematic way.

Regards,

YJ Park

>4. Finance

>Much of the outreach and awareness activities may require financial support

>ICANN may coordinate the fund raising and allocation.  Several organizations

> Seminar and Tutorials for Outreach
> Workshop for Awareness
>
>5.1 Information Material Development

>We need various information materials for wide range of people; regular

>The information materials to be developed include the following;

> Website
> Brochure
> Video program
>
>5.2 Seminar and Tutorials for Outreach
>
>Seminars and tutorials should be given all over the world, starting from
>potential instructors of these seminars and tutorials as well as opinion
>leaders in each region.  AP Internet Seminar Tour, which is visiting every
>major cities in Asia could be a good reference.
>
>5.3 Worshop for Awareness

>Workshops like the one given prior to ICANN Meeting in Los Angeles in 
>Novemer 1999 are needed for awareness development for the ICANN
