==ATLAS III==
The third At-Large Summit (ATLAS III) was held during [[ICANN 66]] in Montreal, Canada, from November 4 to 7, 2019.
ATLAS III built on ATLAS I (2009) and II (2019) in that it continued the spirit of enhancing the At-Large Community’s engagement. However, there were two major changes from the first two summits. First, the third summit focused on cultivating leaders within Regional At-Large Organizations ([[RALO]]s), and second, the ATLAS Declaration to the Board was replaced with a set of post-ATLAS III implementation activities.
ATLAS III focused on organizing members into future “At-Large Ambassadors.” The organized effort to develop potential thought leaders and change agents was an implementation of the At-Large Review Process request for more effective participation of At-Large members in the policy advice process.
The overarching aim of ATLAS III was to provide participants with the skills required to represent the best interests of end users within ICANN.
===At-Large Ambassadors===
The ambassadors were selected through an application process.<ref>https://community.icann.org/display/ATLAS3/ATLAS+III+Application+Guidelines</ref> Prior to submitting their applications, ATLAS III participants were required to complete a series of courses on [[cybersecurity]] basics, [[domain name]]s, the [[GNSO]], the [[ccNSO]], and the [[GAC]].<ref>https://community.icann.org/display/ATLAS3/Online+Training+Courses</ref>
ATLAS III involved plenary and breakout sessions and networking events. A case study on Phase 1 of the Expedited Policy Development Process ([[EPDP]]) on the [[Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data]] was used to train the ambassador on theoretical and practical issues. Veteran At-Large leaders served as coaches and facilitators of the breakout sessions.<ref>https://www.icann.org/news/blog/future-policy-and-outreach-ambassadors-to-attend-the-third-at-large-summit-atlas-iii</ref>
