Dear Jonathan, community, I would like to initiate the renewal of the Capacity Building WG. We have a successful experience, excellent reviews and results (of course participation metrics - we all love metrics), and have been trying to come back to this activity for years (since Hamburg ICANN meeting in November 2023 and earlier - we suggested it with Hadia and had community support). Capacity Building work is a great community mobilization way, as well as strong support for important and complex topics (technological, cybersec, Consolidated Policy, broader ICANN topics to explain with the participation of other ICANN groups - too) is a great way to go. It might help our newcomers to be engaged, be aware, for our experts - to be useful with priceless expertise. If we are not sure it`s needed, we should organise the poll and ask the community about it. I see it as a simple way to use bottom up mode to start or close some processes inside At-Large - Technology Task Force WG, Outreach and Engagement coordinated work, setting up any Subcommittees etc - the way when the community has a decision together with a link to the community opinion - synergy has proven effectiveness. I did not add in the copy of this email Maureen, Hadia, Joanna, Alfredo, Maria - I remember this wonderful team lead the CBWG, but hope some may put comments to my suggestion, as well as other respected community members and leaders.
