Dear All, Please find attached and below recordings of the ICANN & Human Rights Call of 29 May 2015. mp3: https://icann.box.com/shared/static/8hf8xi34aswxx22vr187q5a6z8p53plt.mp3<http://mailer.samanage.com/wf/click?upn=zZ8xDDIU4PY795Cika7Nmy-2FNugFnAwo9a…> AC Chat: Maryam Bakoshi:Dear all, welcome to the ICANN and HR call on Friday 29th May 2015 Maryam Bakoshi:Rafik Dammak and Niels Ten Oever have joined the meeting Maryam Bakoshi:Welcome Marilia Maciel:Hello all! Maryam Bakoshi:Welcome Marilia rafik:non Maryam Bakoshi:Monika has joined rafik:maybe she is shy :) Monika Zalnieriute:00370 628 52 809 Monika Zalnieriute:I also right it here:) Monika Zalnieriute:haha, I read that I am shy here:) Monika Zalnieriute:ok, I wait for the call then! Niels ten Oever - Article19:Monika, can you pick up? Monika Zalnieriute:I still did not get a call rafik:who joined? Maryam Bakoshi: Pranesh Prakash Monika Zalnieriute:but I can hear You though, Maryam Bakoshi:Vipul Karbhanda Maryam Bakoshi:have both joined Monika Zalnieriute:mayeb someone know, what I should click to make my mic work? Niels ten Oever - Article19:Clicl on the mic Monika Alexandra:hi! Maryam Bakoshi:Alexandra please could you state your full name for record purposes. Thank you Alexandra:Maryam, it's Alexandra Kulikova Marilia Maciel:Please start the recording Monika Zalnieriute:yes, I can, Marilia Maciel:Please, can we let the ppl on the phone introduce themselves? Alexandra:i'm not sure I won't be able to speak though unfortunately( Marilia Maciel:Please, mute your mics rafik:niels shoulds disable the mic for his adobe connect :) Marianne F:Hi all , there is feedback so we are hearing Niels twice Marianne F:You're welcom Monika, apologies for the lengthy email nonetheless! :) Marilia Maciel:What is the deadline to comment? Niels ten Oever - Article19:Depends if we want to print it nicely Niels ten Oever - Article19:If we want it to be gone via editor, design and print, we will need to have it done by Monday rafik:@Niels it is a working document for CCWP to continue the discussion, expecting the CCWP to produce its first delvierable Niels ten Oever - Article19:Indeed, so we need to agree on a approval procedure (point 1.3 :) ) rafik:I would see it as an "issue report" not necessarily needed an approval , it is more research work to give input Niels ten Oever - Article19:let's discuss this under the next point Pranesh Prakash:If we don't make a strong defence of HR, who will? :-) Having said that I don't think there's a need to establish a duty to protect on ICANN's part. Marianne F:OF course, they do have this responsibility just we need to proceed step by step. So if the point is made in a note then it is there on the record to be used and referred to later if need be (just reiterating verbal point in writing) Niels ten Oever - Article19:+1 Pranesh Prakash:+1 Maryam Bakoshi:Nigel Hickson has joined Marilia Maciel:Audio issues here. Will have to go out and enter again, sorry Marianne F:+1 from me for leaving it in as example; just to edit and tighten up for now and indicate there option of more detailed analysis later Pranesh Prakash:+1 to Marianne Monika Zalnieriute:Guys, I agree to have it as an example: would You like to have it a shorter part though for now? Monika Zalnieriute:in this particular report? Monika Zalnieriute:+ Lee; it might be too much stuff. Monika Zalnieriute:All at once. Marianne F:Hi, if the feeling is to keep it in then perhaps as a note? But Lee is pointing out the timing issue so I would defer to those who know ICANN better than I do Marianne F:Please mute mics when typing! :) Marianne F:If in doubt leave it out Alexandra:Agree that the UDRP part might draw attention from the substantial issues int he first partin the shape it is now Alexandra:I might have missed it - could smb please remind again how GAC is going to be engaged? Pranesh Prakash:Apologies. I have to leave now. But would just like to reiterate that we mustI (strategically) bear the burden of being the people who take positions on sensitive commercial issues. If we don't, no one else will. We can build bridges after we have some rough position. Marianne F:+1 from me Pranesh; point well taken, cheerio! rafik:@Alexandra we have some GAC members in the CCWP, it has its own working group and Lee is basically doing the liaison. maybe Lee can elaborate here Marilia Maciel:Maybe we could move to the session in BA? Monika Zalnieriute:So I would like to get the idea what do we do?: please type in here, so I could briefly have an idea who is for LEAVING the UDRP and who is for TAKING OUT Niels ten Oever - Article19:The consensus seems to be that it could be mentioned as an short example, but we leave ourt the longer expose. Alexandra:sorry Marilia Maciel:Yes, that is my feeling too Alexandra:I'll type rafik:@monika in few words more coming work for you :) Monika Zalnieriute:Ok, how long - and how detailed - simply a page or so or approx how long? Niels ten Oever - Article19:Shorter Marianne F:Mention it, keep it short as a concrete example vs. a full expose. Monika Zalnieriute:yes, yes, so simply a single refernece, You mean - thats it? Monika Zalnieriute:shorter than a page, You mean? Niels ten Oever - Article19:Yes Monika Zalnieriute:simply like an example mentione, in a sentence?:) Alexandra:guys, just a quick comment/observation: an elaborate description of this one case study now will definitely attract criticism from Russian GAC representatives - as at the Signapore meeting they were very vocal on the Crimean domains issue from the HR perspective. It's a very debateable issue in terms of how exactly that relates to the ICANN remit, but if the HRtalk starts with UDRP in detail I can expect the reaction :) what I mean is that there seems to be a strong link for them berween ICANN and that incidet in the HR context. I can expect there will be efforts to stick it in Marianne F:.. I see your point but won't there be this sort of push back anyway? If this example really could become a red herring (forgive the pun) then leave it out for now. We can always put it back in... Alexandra:yeah I guess you're right.. But it would be good to at least formulate some stance on the issue from the group? or have a longer least of potential case studies for future Alexandra:*list rafik:there will be pish back for many topics, that is why we have to work on consensus and "educate" Marilia Maciel:Yes, open to collaboration/endorsements rafik:we need to get CCWP to have ownership on itw own deliverable Marianne F:I agree; send the final version of the report to the CCWP for comments. People comment best when there is something concrete to comment on. rafik:the public session is not clashing with important sessions rafik:kathy is not coming to BA Marilia Maciel:I would go bit further and ask them for their aseesment Marilia Maciel:some sort of responsibility to speak Marilia Maciel:great Marilia Maciel:Perfect Alexandra:thanks Niels Marianne F:Thanks Niels, thanks all for a great meeting Marilia Maciel:Thanks all Marilia Maciel:Bye all! Alexandra:thanks everyone and bye!

short overview issues discussed on the call
by Niels ten Oever June 2, 2015

June 2, 2015

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Dear all, Please find here my short notes from the call we had last Friday, if something is missing, please feel free to add: - - Monika, Gabrielle and Niels with the useful comments from the list prepared a draft report for the next ICANN meeting with clear recommendations. This report is a follow up to the CoE and previous Article19 report. - - It was decided that the report will not be an official product of the CCWP just yet, it will be an issue report prepared by Article19 for the CCWP, which the CCWP subsequently can adopt and discuss in BA. - - The deadline for comments and input on the report (which would be very much valued is Tuesday June 2 COB. - - The UDRP part of the current report will be left out in its current form and probably used as separate issue report later on to ensure that issues are not conflated. UDRP will however be mentioned as an example. - - Niels will propose an agenda for the public session in BA - - The working session in BA will be used to evaluate the public session and set the scope of the upcoming work. - - The Council of Europe report is going forward, Lee will forward it when it can be made public. It's expected before the meeting in BA. - - The GAC Human Rights working group is almost done with its charter, Lee will inform us when it's ready. - - Niels will contact Bill Drake about a possible contribution of the CCWP to the civil society pre-event at the ICANN BA meeting. Maryam will also provide us with the recordings and the transcript soon.

Draft Report + call on Friday May 29
by Niels ten Oever May 26, 2015

May 26, 2015

Dear all, I hope this email finds you well. Sorry for the long silence from my side. Behind the scenes Monika has worked hard, with some support from Gabrielle and me, on the production of a draft report which we could present in Buenos Aires. Please find it attached. It would be great if we could gather your input ether as comments in the doc or in an email, specifically on the ICANN specific items, and whether you think the UDRP piece should be part of the report or not. We will need to act rather swiftly if we want to have this done (and language checked and printed) before ICANN BA. So I would be very grateful for all your comments, preferably by Wednesday. Furthermore I would like to propose a call on Friday the 29th of May 13:00 GMT so we can discuss this draft report and other issues. Looking forward to hear from you.

session descriptions for ICANN53 BA
by Niels ten Oever May 11, 2015

May 11, 2015

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear all, Rafik and I have requested two meetings for ICANN53 in Buenos Aires: one general session to raise awareness around this issue and present our work, and one working session. We have been a bit late in submitting session descriptions, so it would be greatly appreciated if you could comment on these descriptions as soon as possible. Session 1 - ICANNs Corporate and Social Responsibility to Respect Human Rights There is a growing recognition in parts of the ICANN community that some of ICANN’s policies and other actions have implications for human rights like freedom of expression and the right to privacy. In ICANNs articles of incorporation it's stated that ICANN will operate in conformity with international law, which includes human rights law. This session will focus on how ICANNs policies and procures 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 ICANNs Corporate and Social Responsibility to Respect Human Rights and builds on the sessions held London, Los Angeles, and Singapore and the previous reports that were produced on this topic. Session 2 - Working session of Cross Community Working Party on ICANNs 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), and this related, but not limited to policies, procedures and operations, it particularly focuses on ICANNs responsibility to respect human rights. This sessions will facilitate dialogue between members of the community that have an interest in this topic and will discuss in depth the research that has been done and will discuss the future work of the CCWP as well as the new charter and report.

Re: [cc-humanrights] Initial CSR-HR Research OUTLINE Proposal
by Marilia Maciel May 7, 2015

May 7, 2015

Dear Monika, Sorry for the delayed feedback. I find a bit hard to make very concrete comments on the outline at the current stage because the topics are mentioned in broad terms, so the actual content could take different directions. Maybe as the writing evolves you could fill the outline with bullet points that show the progression of your arguments. At this point, the overview looks great and very connected to what we need in this particular moment. It was clear from the discussion of the charter that there is room for building knowledge and understanding of what CSR and a human rights approach mean in ICANN. Please see some very general and initial comments below. > *Corporate and Social Responsibility to Respect Human Rights: Practical Recommendations > for ICANN * > > > 1. Introduction > > 2.

Last call for CCWP charter
by Niels ten Oever April 22, 2015

April 22, 2015

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear all, We had some time to comment the charter text for the Cross Community Working Part on ICANN and Human Rights both on this list and in the call, I would like to propose that we leave the text (as put underneath) open for comment for one more week and then work with this charter and go ahead do some research before the Buenos Aires meeting. I'm greatly looking forward to your questions, suggestions and comments and to hopefully come to consensus by Tuesday next week. Best, Niels Background: This cross community working party (CCWP) seeks to map and understand the issues and potential solutions for the impact that policies, procedures and operations of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) have on human rights. In particular it focuses on the corporate responsibility of ICANN to respect human rights. It builds on a long term community engagement on this topic, further catalysed with the publication of the paper 'ICANN's procedures and policies in the light of human rights, fundamental freedoms and democratic values', as commissioned by the Council of Europe, and after sessions held in London, Los Angeles and Singapore. It seeks to improve ICANN's measures to respect human rights, in accordance with article 4 of ICANN's articles of incorporation. Objective: The CCWP on ICANN and Human Rights would have the purpose to raise awareness, provide information, facilitate dialogue and make suggestions to the ICANN community on ways to better harmonize ICANN’s policies and procedures with internationally recognized human rights standards, such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). The working party will focus on human rights that are directly impacted by ICANN policy decisions, procedures and operations. Responsibilities and scope of work: (i) To continue the process of raising awareness about the interplay between ICANN’s policies, procedures and operations and human rights; (ii) To map and collect information from the community about cases as well as current ICANN policies,procedures and operations that present an impact on human rights in which further guidance on how to harmonize policies and procedures with human rights would be necessary;; (iii) To develop guidelines for the procedures that are in place or that should be created in the policy development process to ensure the respect for human rights; (iv) To provide information, suggestions and recommendations to the chartering organizations and to the broader ICANN community on how ICANN’s policies and procedures can be developed and implemented consistent with internationally recognized human rights standards. This input can inform the policy development processes as defined in the ICANN Bylaws. (v) To propose procedures and mechanisms with the aim of producing assessments on if and how policies and procedures under development and/or being implemented may impact on human rights.
