In anticipation the launch of the next round of applications for New gTLDs, this webinar is aimed at facilitating understanding around the New gTLD Program from the At-Large perspective, including any remaining policy-related processes and implementation work to be undertaken from now up to the target launch date of Apr 2026. This follows from the Webinar series pilot of APRALO Policy Forum Webinar #1: Next Round of New gTLDs: An Overview<https://community.icann.org/x/OwGWDw>. Join Justine Chew, ALAC Liaison to the GNSO and former At-Large Liaison for Subsequent Procedures, for Webinar #2 on the Next Round of New gTLDs: A Primer on Applicant Support (Part 1) on Thursday 23 November 2023 at 06:00 UTC for 75 minutes, where participants can expect to gain: * an overview of: * the Applicant Support Program for the 2012 Round of the New gTLD Program; * the policy recommendations of the Subsequent Procedures PDP Working Group (SubPro PDP WG) in 2016-2021; * the implementation work by the Subsequent Procedures Implementation Review Team (SubPro IRT) leading up to the launch of the Next Round; * an understanding of the 'gaps', i.e. what work remains in terms of policy versus implementation; * a preliminary discussion / gathering of input for a plan to amplify communication about the Next Round and the Applicant Support Program; * an open-mic opportunity to seek clarification and/or raise issues for addressing (to the extent possible); and * an opportunity to input on agenda building for this Webinar series.
