The At-Large Summit (ATLAS) is a gathering of the representatives of individual Internet users participating in ICANN. There have been three ATLASes.
ATLAS I[edit | edit source]
ATLAS I was the first-ever gathering of the representatives of individual Internet users participating in ICANN. Organized as part of ICANN 34 in Mexico City, ATLAS I featured two general sessions for all participants as well as thematic sessions and workshops on issues led by At-Large community members.
Working Groups[edit | edit source]
Five working groups were formed to draft and finalize a Summit Declaration to the ICANN Board. The five topics were
- ====At-Large engagement in ICANN==
The general sentiment was that participation was poor and there was much room for improvement.
- ==The future structure and governance of ICANN==
- New gTLDs including IDN gTLDs
- Transparency and accountability of ICANN
- security issues within ICANN's mandate.[1]
The subjects for the working groups were chosen via a survey of the entire At-Large community Between December 2008 and January 2009. The summit participants were assigned to the working group that they selected as of most interest to them, and then the groups were balanced regionally and according to language needs. All five working groups began working together in February 2009 in advance of the Summit and met twice during the summit to finalize their statements.
ATLAS II[edit | edit source]
The Second At-Large Summit, or ATLAS II, was held in London in conjunction with ICANN London. The summit brought together representatives from various At-Large Structures to learn and debate ICANN policies, share information, and experience an ICANN meeting.
