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. | |||

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> | |||
