"The Civil Society Alliances for Digital Empowerment (CADE)"
by ICANN At-Large Staff Nov. 11, 2024

Nov. 11, 2024

On behalf of Adam Peake Dear Friends, Karolina Iwańska, ECNL https://ecnl.org/team and Kenneth Msiska, Forus International https://www.forus-international.org/en/profile-detail/191452-kenneth-harry-… members of "The Civil Society Alliances for Digital Empowerment (CADE)" https://cadeproject.org/cade-mission/ will be in Istanbul for ICANN81 and look forward to meeting ICANN's civil society community and others. I think you will see Karolina and Kenneth at various constituency and SG/AC meetings, but they will also hold a "get to know" session they would like to invite you to attend on Wednesday 13 Nov, 12:00-13:00 local Istanbul time. Room is CB1_Hamidiye. I think you will find the project very interesting. Funded by the European Commission (a competitive bid), the project will support civil society organizations to engage in Internet governance processes and capacity building around those processes. ICANN was named in the Commission's RFP as one of the target IG organizations for the study. A 48 month project, launched in January this year. More information on the CADE website. Please join Karolina and Kenneth next Wednesday lunchtime in the Hamidiye room. Please feel free to forward this invitation to ICANN participants you think might be interested. Warm regards, Adam Adam Peake ICANN GSE Europe

With ICANN81 scheduled to take place in Istanbul, Republic of Türkiye, we are mindful of the concerns some attendees may have due to the ongoing uncertainty in the Middle East. I would like to take this opportunity to share how our Security Operations Team evaluates potential meeting sites and the comprehensive risk analysis and mitigation strategies we implement to ensure a safe event where attendees feel welcome. Our team is composed of regional security experts who continuously monitor the evolving risk landscape within their regions. They play a critical role in our risk assessment for any potential ICANN Public Meeting location. This process begins with their initial evaluation, followed by an on-site visit to the proposed meeting location.

Important Notice: 10 November Commemoration at 9:05 AM Dear Community, On Sunday, 10 November, at 9:05 TRT, the Republic of Türkiye will observe a moment of silence in honor of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of the Turkish Republic, as part of the annual commemoration of his passing. During this time, you may hear sirens sounding across the city and see people standing still in a show of respect, both indoors and outdoors. This is a long-standing tradition across the country and is part of the official commemoration events. Please note, there is no cause for alarm – this is a planned event. You are welcome to join the observance by pausing for a moment of reflection, wherever you are. Thank you for your understanding and participation. Dive into DNS: Hands-On Workshop with ISPCP and OCTO [Image of hands resting on a laptop keyboard. In the top left corner are the words “ISPCP-OCTO Training Session.” In the bottom left corner is the white ICANN logo.] Join us on Saturday, 9 November, from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM TRT in the Macka room for an engaging training session hosted by the Internet Service Providers and Connectivity Providers (ISPCP) and the Office of the Chief Technology Officer (OCTO). This workshop offers a quick recap of Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC), followed by a hands-on experience where participants will operate and test their own virtual servers. You’ll learn to install Domain Name System (DNS) recursive resolver servers from scratch, guided by on-site facilitators. They will walk you through all necessary procedures and configuration details, ensuring you can set up the servers confidently. By the end of the session, you’ll have installed and run Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) and Unbound DNS recursive resolvers with DNSSEC validation, while exploring essential performance, security, and privacy considerations. And for intrepid participants, a bonus lab challenge awaits you for the rest of the ICANN81 meeting week. Don’t miss this opportunity to enhance your technical skills and deepen your understanding of DNS technologies. Mark your calendar for this valuable learning and networking experience!
