Thanks also to the meeting venue and the beautiful city of Seattle for hosting us this week. With people from around the world coming together to discuss and develop policies for the Internet’s unique identifiers, this meeting was a great opportunity to see ICANN’s multistakeholder model in action.

ICANN83: Helping to Shape the Internet's Future [Chris Mondini, Vice President, Stakeholder Engagement & Managing Director - Europe] By Chris Mondini, Vice President, Stakeholder Engagement & Managing Director - Europe ICANN83 in Prague, hosted by CZ.NIC, the Czech national domain registry, will be held 9–12 June 2025 and is set to bring the global Internet community together ahead of the Internet Governance Forum Norway and the World Summit on the Information Society: 20-year review (WSIS+20) High-Level Forum. The historic city, known for its rich cultural heritage and role as a hub for international dialogue, provides an ideal setting for these critical discussions. As the next major milestone on the ICANN calendar, discussions will focus on the evolving New gTLD Program: Next Round, addressing policy refinements for future top-level domain applications. Participants will also examine key governance developments, including the WSIS commitments, ensuring stakeholder voices guide policy decisions. Beyond sessions on Domain Name System security, Universal Acceptance, and domain name registration data, ICANN83 provides a platform to lay the groundwork for collaborative solutions to ongoing challenges. With the Internet’s continued expansion, community feedback will shape strategic planning, ensuring the multistakeholder model remains inclusive.

If you missed it or want to review, visit the session page [nj88a9rab.cc.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/nj88a9rab.cc.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001zPWo2Ye…> for the available session materials and recording. Agenda: The At-Large community held its second plenary meeting at ICANN82. It was led by Avri Doria. The plenary explored whether expectations set by ICANN during the development and implementation of the New gTLD Program were met, especially as the Next Round Applicant Guidebook approaches publication. The session started with a brief introduction about the format, topic selection methodology, and premise for the plenary. The At-Large community was invited to participate in a formatted debate and discussion around the topics of Domain Name System (DNS) Abuse and the Applicant Support Program. Highlights: The debates featured longstanding members of the At-Large community and included input from different community members. The issue of DNS Abuse was introduced by Hadia Elminiawi. Olivier Crepin-Leblond underscored the progress made on DNS Abuse since the previous round of New gTLDs whereas Cheryl Langdon-Orr provided an overview of the perceived shortcomings identified by various stakeholders on DNS Abuse as it relates to the Next Round of New gTLDs. The audience discussed whether they believed enough had been done to address DNS Abuse before the opening of the Next Round application window. Hadia Elminiawi then provided a summary of the audience’s reflection of the session. After concluding the discussion on DNS Abuse, Joanna Kulesza introduced the topic of the Applicant Support Program and its speakers. She provided a brief overview of the At-Large position on the Applicant Support Program and asked whether enough had been done to address concerns that have been raised in relation to the Applicant Support Program in the 2012 round. Cheryl Langdon-Orr proceeded to highlight the advancements that had been made to the Applicant Support Program since the previous round of New gTLDs. Maureen Hilyard provided a rebuttal arguing that more needed to be done to assist applicants from underserved regions. The audience followed this by offering their input about the progression of the Applicant Support Program. After a thoughtful discussion, Avri Doria thanked the speakers and the audience for participating in this plenary and encouraged the community to continue speaking up about issues important to them. Next Steps: The At-Large community will continue to engage with the ICANN community on ways to mitigate DNS Abuse, especially as the launch of the Next Round application window approaches. The At-Large community will continue to promote the Next Round Applicant Support Program and discuss issues related to the Next Round at the At-Large Advisory Committee’s weekly Consolidated Policy Working Group call. At-Large Representatives will continue to attend the Next Round Implementation Review Team (SubPro IRT) meetings to help ensure proper implementation of ICANN Board-approved policy recommendations for the Next Round.

On 28 March 2025, the Internet Society Armenia and the regional UA initiative for the Commonwealth of Independent States, with support from ICANN, will hold a half-day UA Day event in Yerevan, Armenia.

Prior to the main event, speakers will deliver lectures at several Armenian universities. Participants and speakers from Belarus, Russia, Kyrgyz Republic, Armenia, Georgia, and beyond are scheduled to attend. On 15 April 2025, the Republic of Moldova will continue this series of events by hosting its own UA Day in Chisinau, organized by the Internet Association of Moldova. As UA efforts are relatively new to the country, this forum will emphasize raising awareness and providing technical training for local software developers, further advancing UA in the region.
