<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">Dear Chapter Leaders,<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US"> <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">Internet Society Chapters are a very important part of our organization. They act as a local presence globally to advance and represent ISOCs mission, vision and principles. They are a crucial
vehicle for ISOC to drive the local advocacy efforts as well as implement activities and actions at local level.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">To be able to do this it is important that Chapters are well structured, well governed, functional and that there is a clear definition of the role of Chapters.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US"> <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">Since 2013 we have continued to strengthen our relationship with our Chapters and are working with them to improve on a number of areas through:<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0cm" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">The introduction of standardized Charter agreements to clarify the role of and the support of Chapters <u></u><u></u></span></li><li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">The introduction of minimum standards and a Chapter Performance Evaluation to identify and support areas of improvement <u></u><u></u></span></li><li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">The increase of financial and other support for Chapters<u></u><u></u></span></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US"> <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">With the increased financial support to our Chapters we also have an increased responsibility and accountability towards our community. It is the responsibility of Internet Society’s leadership
to manage its funds in a responsible and transparent manner. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">This implies that the legal relationship between Internet Society and its Chapters needs to be well defined. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US"> <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">As you all have seen Internet Society launched a new brand identity over the last months, with a new logo, new font, new colours, a different tone of voice, etc. Some of you have already been
implementing this. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">As the local voices of the Internet Society, it is important that our Chapters carry that same image and message. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US"> <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">For all these reasons, we are introducing a revised Chapter Charter that:<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0cm" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">Clarifies the relationship between Internet Society and its Chapters, including external communications guidelines<u></u><u></u></span></li><li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">Clarifies the expectations (minimum criteria, governance structure and support) for both parties<u></u><u></u></span></li><li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">Clarifies the expectations in terms of Internet related positions taken by Chapters<u></u><u></u></span></li><li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">Clarifies the use of the Internet Society Brand and use of Intellectual Property<u></u><u></u></span></li><li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">Clarifies the terms and accountability for funding provided by Internet Society<u></u><u></u></span></li><li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">Clarifies the terms of termination of a Chapter<u></u><u></u></span></li><li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">Reduces the liability in case of abuse or misuse of funding and branding<u></u><u></u></span></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US"> <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">The attached agreement has been reviewed by the Chapters Advisory Council Steering Committee who have given extensive feedback and input (thanks again!!). <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US"> <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">We understand that some of the changes in the agreement will imply some changes at Chapter level and we will of course work with all of you to ensure you can go through the necessary processes
at local level in due time. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">We will expect Chapters to sign the revised agreement before 1<sup>st</sup> of January 2018 to still be eligible for Chapter funding. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US"> <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US">Therefore, I’d like to ask you all to review the attached Chapter Charter in <b>the next 30 days, until 31<sup>st</sup> August</b> and please contact </span><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="ES-TRAD"><a href="mailto:chapter-support@isoc.org" target="_blank"><span lang="EN-US">chapter-support@isoc.o<wbr>rg</span></a></span><span style="font-size:11.0pt" lang="EN-US"> with
