As per the LGR Procedure [icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__icann.org_en_system_fi…> [PDF, 772 KB], this proposal is being posted for public comment to allow those who have not participated in the Sinhala script GP to make their views known. The Sinhala Script Root Zone Label Generation Rules (LGR) follow the posting of eight related Neo-Brahmi Scripts' LGR proposals, which have been published in three sets. The first [icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__icann.org_public-2Dcom…> set includes Devanagari, Gujarati and Gurmukhi scripts' LGRs, the second [icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__icann.org_public-2Dcom…> set includes Kannada, Telugu, and Oriya scripts' LGRs and the third [icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__icann.org_public-2Dcom…> set includes Malayalam and Tamil scripts' LGRs. Overlapping the comment periods of these LGRs of related scripts, to the extent possible, will allow the community to consider these proposals in the context of each other. Based on the feedback, the Sinhala script GP will finalize the proposal for submission for integration into the Label Generation Rules for the Root Zone (RZ-LGR).

This webinar will provide an overview of the strategic planning process, and present findings from the strategic outlook trend sessions and the subsequent analysis by the Board and ICANN org. The webinar will provide background information and context ahead of the strategic planning session scheduled at ICANN63 (to be announced). A recording of the webinar will be made available. To participate, please request a calendar invitation by sending an email to mssi-secretariat(a)icann.org<mailto:mssi-secretariat@icann.org> . Background Information Strategic planning is a fundamental part of ICANN's governance. Mandated by the organization's Bylaws, the strategic plan articulates ICANN's vision; restates ICANN's mission; and sets forth strategic objectives / goals for the next five years. The approach to develop the next iteration of the next strategic plan consists of four phases: trends identification, prioritization and analysis, drafting, and finalization of the plan. The community, Board, and ICANN org completed the process of identifying strategic outlook trends in June 2018. The Board and ICANN org then conducted an analysis of key priority trends and their impacts on ICANN. These findings will inform the strategic plan for the fiscal period 2021 to 2025. Once finalized, the strategic plan will be put into action through ICANN's five-year and annual operating plans, which specify how we will execute our work in order to meet the objectives laid out in the strategic plan. Learn more about the strategic planning process in this blog post on ICANN.org. About ICANN ICANN's mission is to help ensure a stable, secure and unified global Internet.
