Introduction to the mailing list
by Vipul Kharbanda Aug. 31, 2015

Aug. 31, 2015

Hello All, My name is Vipul Kharbanda and I am probably the newest entrant on this list. I would also be contributing to the work being done through this mailing list and therefore thought that I should introduce myself to everyone. I am a lawyer by qualification, I graduated law school in 2007 and worked in a corporate law firm in India for about 2 years. I am currently a consultant with the Centre for Internet and Society in Bangalore,. This is probably my first foray into ICANN and its working since my background is mostly in work related to privacy laws in India. However I shall try to contribute in whatever way possible to the working and products of this group. Warm Regards Vipul Kharbanda Consultant, Centre for Internet and Society

Megan Richards, European Commission:much better ! Marilia Maciel:Sure. Tatiana Tropina:Hi everyone! Marilia Maciel:Yes Marilia Maciel:Maybe we can see the agenda on screen? Niels ten Oever - Article19:1. Short evaluation ICANN2. Works as agreed. 1. chart 2. legal 3. administrivia3. CCWG accountability & human rights4. other issues Marilia Maciel:Perfect Marilia Maciel:Lost audio, Niels Megan Richards, European Commission:we have lost your voice Niels ! Maryam Bakoshi:Alexandra, Avri Doria, Stephanie Perrin & Farzaneh have joined Maryam Bakoshi:Niles will rejoin soon matthew shears:seem to have audio issues Maryam Bakoshi:We are calling him now Marilia Maciel:Ok, thanks, Maryam Maryam Bakoshi:We are working to get Niels back on the line Niels ten Oever - Article19:yyou lost me? Maryam Bakoshi:Yes Niels ten Oever - Article19:aii Marilia Maciel:Yes, no audio Maryam Bakoshi:The operator has been trying to call you Niels ten Oever - Article19:can you call me again? Niels ten Oever - Article19:I just hung up now Niels ten Oever - Article19:pls call me again Niels ten Oever - Article19:where did you lose me? matthew shears:I am here (I think) Megan Richards, European Commission:at the beginning !! Tatiana Tropina:can you hear me? Niels ten Oever - Article19:No we cannot hear you Maryam Bakoshi:No Tatiana Tropina:too bad Maryam Bakoshi:Tatiana do you have a number we can sial out to Maryam Bakoshi:*dial Tatiana Tropina:+4917635423791 Maryam Bakoshi:Amr Elsadr has joined Maryam Bakoshi:@Tatiana - calling you now Marilia Maciel:Vacations for you guys, in Europe I think :) Maryam Bakoshi:Yes Tatiana is on the line Marilia Maciel:Avri? Matt? :) matthew shears:I think that the accountabillity proposal is also asking for input from commenters on the issue of human rights in the bylaws in parallel Megan Richards, European Commission:this is what the report seems to say but perhaps this is evolving: • Work plan for Work Stream 2 to: o Enhance diversity and the culture of transparency within ICANNo Further address concerns about community accountability. The 2nd Draft Report includes a recommendation for regular structural reviews of SOs and ACs to assess their accountability towards their participants as well as towards the stakeholders they are designed to represent.o Elaborate on a Commitment to human rights in the ICANN Bylaws.• Details on an implementation plan for Work Stream 1, including a Bylaws drafting process. Megan Richards, European Commission:sorry - wrong cut and paste !! apologies matthew shears:in terms of strategy it will be important for a number of diverse entities to input on this in the publoc consultation - the comment revirew process does not weight the inputs so more inputs on issues of concernsuch as HR is important Avri Doria:i plan to put in my own comment on the issue. Avri Doria:both HR related and other. matthew shears:+ 1 matthew shears:I think we have to leave a lot of this to WS2. If we start to get into the detail the bylaw may get very long and cumbersome Tatiana Tropina:I think it is better to avoid detailing bylaws in order to avoid long legal debates which can get us to nowhere and delay the changes we want matthew shears:yep Tatiana Tropina:*again I don't know how far this discussion went before, may be I am just repeating what has already been discussed many times Megan Richards, European Commission:perhaps its a problem with the mike - in a nutshell I agree with marilia's comment Maryam Bakoshi:Hi Megan, please could you provide your number for dial out Amr Elsadr:@Matt: RE: HRs in WS2, that sounds logical to me, so +1. For now, some form of commitment from the CCWG to include HR issues in WS2 wouldn't be such a bad thing though. Megan Richards, European Commission:My number is +322 2962443 but marilia said exactly what I was going to say - Avri Doria:The Corporation shall operate for the benefit of the Internet community as a whole, carrying out its activities in conformity with relevant principles of international law and applicable international conventions and local law and, to the extent appropriate and consistent with these Articles and its Bylaws, through open and transparent processes that enable competition and open entry in Internet-related markets. To this effect, the Corporation shall cooperate as appropriate with relevant international organizations matthew shears:shame we can't just asterisk the bylaw above after the word conventions and add if need be UDHR and ICCPR Tatiana Tropina:@Matthew, it's articles of incorporation I think :) matthew shears:thanks Megan Richards, European Commission:the articles of incorporation cover all Avri Doria:... coverl all that are relevant ... applicable ... and to the extent apprpproprote consistent with the bylaws. Tatiana Tropina:Yes, in a general way Megan Richards, European Commission:the Articles take precedence over the bylaws - the bylaws can limit the application or clarify the specific provisions Tatiana Tropina:+1 to Megan. I see any changes made to bylaws as clarification of this general commitment Megan Richards, European Commission:ICANN has agreed to apply the applicable and relevant provisions by virtue of the provisions of its ARticles of incorporation - public international law and its application is a separate issue and not what we should be discussing here matthew shears:agree with simple phrasing for bylaws Avri Doria:those are not my concerns, as much as the concerns of tothers. i support the most general language. Tatiana Tropina:I actually don't see any way to make other than simple wording of bylaws Megan Richards, European Commission:am responding in the chat then Megan Richards, European Commission:we should ensure that the work is not duplicating that done in GAC HR wg and other fora matthew shears:good point - have the GAC discussions evolved since the meeting in BA? Megan Richards, European Commission:not yet but would be a pity if the various groups were to either duplicate or heavens forbid contradict that of each other Avri Doria:Isn't the GAC having a simlar definitional issues as the WP4 is having Megan Richards, European Commission:thanks and apologies for no voice :-) matthew shears:thanks Niels, all Tatiana Tropina:thanks ! Niels ten Oever - Article19:Thanks all!

by Niels ten Oever Aug. 19, 2015

Aug. 19, 2015

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi all, As discussed on last Mondays call we'll have a another conference call on September 7 at 13:00 GMT. I would propose holding the next one on September 21 at 13:00 GMT, and the final one before ICANN54 in Dublin on October 5 at 13:00 GMT. I'll ask Maryam to organize these conference calls and send out invitations via the list. All the best, Niels PS 13:00 GMT seems to be a balance between people from all continents, I do however recognize that this limits participation from the American West-Coast as well at parts of East Asia and Oceania. If you cannot participate because of the time, please let me know and I'll try to accommodate. - -- Niels ten Oever Head of Digital Article 19 www.article19.org PGP fingerprint 8D9F C567 BEE4 A431 56C4 678B 08B5 A0F2 636D 68E9 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJV061vAAoJEAi1oPJjbWjpdEwH/1y2P+s7ap4Ik0Uoe7xagzEQ qcwFMSTyBA3WyLWhr4sMehDTI9RFFhM/DShyIqDIr8OoYnF4altZhwq23bKCSy2e noyzE5VdsOooJbHMxhRD1Y+z7peRujDPXBe4KTXYWZcj29rn0ILDY75x/fVF6RU3 6YgEwCFS2NFNxViRhbwHszb1UQznFsPmj+UCw1i2f9RAqJYlLhBMwnhjoAF7ooif QeqrIXEKOoqY1fmoFo2gGOPupm/m4tEg01kRd6Am9AQXq0u7RvlvYFWiYHKWUBAB o6m/TaYV47W6RCkgd0G+sXZ8++f5X43zIcO8uH+MDr3aEu4BgNrVvhG6RMtKU48= =fF43 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Proposed Session Descriptions ICANN Dublin
by Niels ten Oever Aug. 15, 2015

Aug. 15, 2015

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi all, Please find underneath the proposed session descriptions and agendas for ICANN Dublin, looking forward to hear what you think. It's been largely based on earlier sessions descriptions with some tweaks to make it fit recent and upcoming work. Best, Niels Session 1 - CCWP on ICANNs Corporate and Social Responsibility to Respect Human Rights There is a growing recognition among a variety of members of the ICANN community that some of ICANN's policies and other actions have implications for human rights including freedom of expression and the right to privacy. ICANN's articles of incorporation state that ICANN will operate in conformity with international law, which includes human rights law. This session will focus on how ICANN's policies and procedures can be better harmonized with internationally recognized human rights and corporate social responsibility standards. This session will present the work done in the framework of the cross community working party on ICANN's Corporate and Social Responsibility to Respect Human Rights and builds on the sessions held in London, Los Angeles, Singapore and Buenos Aires as well as the previous reports that were produced on this topic. Agenda - Welcome and Introductions - Presentation of mapping of ICANNs HR issues - Presentation of relevant Human Right Impact Assessment Models - Presentation of relevant Corporate Social Responsibility standards and recommendations - Discussion Session 2 - Working session of Cross Community Working Party on ICANN's Corporate and Social Responsibility to Respect Human Rights This cross community working party (CCWP) seeks to map and understand the issues and potential solutions related to corporate and social responsibilities of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). This is related, but not limited to policies, procedures and operations, with a particular focus on ICANNs responsibility to respect human rights. The objective of this session will be to facilitate dialogue between members of the community that have an interest in this topic. We will discuss in depth the research that has been done, the relevant issues at hand in the ICANN community converning human rights, and define the next steps for the CCWP. Session 3 - Joint meeting of the GAC WG on Human Rights and International Law and the CCWP on ICANN's Corporate and Social Responsibility to Respect Human Rights This sessions aims to inform and update both the GAC WG on Human Rights and International Law and the CCWP on ICANN's Corporate and Social Responsibility to Respect Human Rights on the progress made by respective groups and ensure optimal collaboration and information sharing. - -- Niels ten Oever Head of Digital Article 19 www.article19.org PGP fingerprint 8D9F C567 BEE4 A431 56C4 678B 08B5 A0F2 636D 68E9 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJVzItPAAoJEAi1oPJjbWjp/UEH/RekQTqwcIGEGUrj0BalMhjT LcaGqITuGcjhnXd45E0yGl3R6Bxhxkwb0xyu9mnsxWpmz+fGcT47obRM6DkyEQtq i3V0WgLlIK1SGoLJLXXk55uqKIwbQKHlMVeXfZwZAraTx2xC80Z9VlCOtSp/GQ/r PHJ1SWWozPBcIPW+NejfaAzNemRcA4wjkgjwVqiOVHqo8gWGZpHIyK1VDAuz5hHr acPJtgdr3JRktPFEdiTriacGrdxVdkcU/FsoDShW6NK0pc9h9SSDtE64ZLDlLuTT 7xEzfP6EWgAJtcu3Bg2l/pJJW7HLhnwuSqfjeNWsWbHtRg+qWlAGWMksLwgy8II= =71yC -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

ICANN site selection
by Jamie Baxter Aug. 6, 2015

Aug. 6, 2015

As a "new gTLD applicant" who has participated in most ICANN meetings for the past 6 years, it remains a concern of ours that ICANN maintains a path of selecting meeting locations in countries with less than reputable human rights records, which includes their records on gay rights. We believe it is important to begin a discussion on this issue as the topic of human rights is elevated within the corporate and social responsibility at ICANN. Since ICANN is an organization built on openness, under a multi-stakeholder model that thrives on public participation, now is the relevant time for ICANN to begin thinking about how its site selection for meetings impacts freedom of speech & association, public safety and public perception of the organization's commitment to the human rights issue. By not reviewing site selection related issues, the larger discussion on human rights would certainly be perceived as lip service to many, especially from the gay community. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has also recognized this concern and recently implemented mandates that would prevent future host cities from winning bids if their human rights records and policies (including gay rights) were sub-par. The gay community has welcomed this pro-active approach by the IOC following the Sochi Olympics to guarantee their future participation and safety, and this is a standard that we believe an international organization like ICANN could take lesson from. We welcome comment from the group on how to add this point to the ongoing work on corporate and social responsibility at ICANN.
