The Second At-Large Summit, or ATLAS II, was held in London in conjunction with [[ICANN 50 -  London]]. The summit brought together representatives from various [[At-Large Structure]]s to learn and debate ICANN policies, share information, and experience an ICANN meeting. The attendees represent Internet end-users, and many had never experienced an ICANN meeting before. The goal of the meeting was to discuss, reach consensus, and draft reports on five issues: 1) the Future of Multistakeholderism, 2) the Globalization of ICANN, 3) Global Internet: the User Perspective, 4) ICANN Transparency and Accountability, and 5) At-Large Community Engagement in ICANN.<ref>[https://www.icann.org/news/blog/at-large-community-to-convene-in-london-for-atlas-ii At-Large Community to Convene in London for ATLAS II] ''ICANN.org''; Retrieved 10 July 2014</ref>

ALSes provide an avenue for every Individual Internet user to take part in all the issues discussed within ICANN.
