Demonstrating the power of the multistakeholder model to rally individual Internet users, nearly 30 members of ICANN's At-Large Community are participating in the Internet Governance Forum (IGF) in Baku, Azerbaijan from 6-9 November 2012.
The African Regional At-Large Organization (AFRALO) and the Asia, Australasia and Pacific Islands Regional At-Large Organization (APRALO) worked with ICANN to put together sessions examining aspects of ICANN's New gTLD Program.
In addition to organizing and participating in sessions, At-Large members will also join ICANN staff at its informational booth in the IGF Village. They will provide information on ICANN-sponsored events as well as on the new MyICANN web portal.
At-Large has created a wiki workspace devoted to its planned activities at the seventh annual IGF. It can be found at https://community.icann.org/x/-4g3Ag.
