Hi, Thanks to all of you who were able to join us today - we had great turnout and a great discussion. Our action items are as follows: - Incorporate the very helpful suggestions made for our GNSO HRIA model, and take the discussion to the lists for further input. - Human Rights in Ongoing PDPs Paper <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RCJCQLvz_pc9IzCcczFntwPd005WYcjiHwv3uFKp...>: Several people have kindly volunteered to assist on this paper. - Next steps: Targeted interviews with people familiar with PDPs at RightsCon in May or ICANN62 in June. David McAuley and Ayden Férdeline have volunteered to speak to PDPs they are familiar with. Any other volunteers? - Refining the paper based on this information. Raphael and Ines, could you assist with this stage? - Monitor developments with regard to an ePDP for the GDPR and/or for the RDS, and if and when those move forward we should aim to demo an HRIA in the early stages. - Next meeting scheduled for early June (June 1). Best wishes, Michael and Collin Co-Chairs
Greetings, As mentioned below, a new draft Human Rights Impact Assessment for GNSO PDPs, dubbed the “Questionnaire Model”, was presented during the call today (attached below). This is Version 1.1, incorporating some suggestions made during the call today. Other considerations and suggestions made during the call were captured at the top of the shareable version of the document (link on ICANN Human Rights website <https://icannhumanrights.net/documents/>, where you’ll also find the “Initial Sketch” presented last October). If you would like editing access to make suggestions to the Questionnaire Model, ask and permissions will be granted. Please review and comment on this draft by Friday, May 25 so that we have time to incorporate suggestions ahead of the next call, which will take place the following week on June 1. As expressed by participants during today's call, the possibility of an expedited PDP (EPDP?) being chartered to develop the GDPR compliance model could raise concerns not only about human rights, but about the integrity of the PDP itself as key steps such as the initial report and public comments period could be eliminated for the sake of time. When reviewing the proposed “Questionnaire Model,” it could be useful to consider how it could be deployed as part of this EPDP. Not only would the GDPR conversation benefit from such a tool, but the shortened timeframe would allow us a unique opportunity to evaluate its effectiveness more quickly than usual. The tool could also be applied to ongoing PDPs such as the Review of All Rights Protection Mechanisms <https://gnso.icann.org/en/group-activities/active/rpm> and New gTLD Subsequent Procedures <https://gnso.icann.org/en/group-activities/active/new-gtld-subsequent-proced...> to test its utility and potentially answer questions raised about where it should fit in the process, how it should be completed, and by whom. If you would like to learn more or become more involved in this work, please don’t hesitate to contact Michael or me. This is timely—and dare I say, exciting—work, and we can always benefit from another hand on deck! Best regards, Collin Kurre

Confirm that I could assist with the paper where/whenever I'm needed! I understand that would come post ICANN62? Best, 2018-05-03 18:21 GMT+02:00 Michael Karanicolas <mkaranicolas@gmail.com>:

Thank you very much Michael for the summary. Please notice that I tried to connect many times but in vain (on Wednesday). Yes I can help in refinning the paper. Le jeudi 3 mai 2018, Raphaël BEAUREGARD-LACROIX < raphael.beauregardlacroix@sciencespo.fr> a écrit :

Dear all, I would like to suggest a refinement regarding where our work could be headed, for the workgroup in general and more precisely for this paper. Considering the wording of the HR bylaw (here for your convenience, with my emphasis): *In performing its Mission, the following "Core Values" should also guide the decisions and actions of ICANN:* *(viii) Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 27.2, within the scope of its Mission and other Core Values, respecting internationally recognized human rights as required by applicable law. This Core Value does not create, and shall not be interpreted to create, any obligation on ICANN outside its Mission, or beyond obligations found in applicable law. This Core Value does not obligate ICANN to enforce its human rights obligations, or the human rights obligations of other parties, against other parties.* I think it would make sense to consider "applicable law" as, more precisely, how HR enforcement or operationalisation by governments (including EU here) may affect ICANN's operations (which also include its community "activities" like PDPs) This in my view would be interesting, given that human rights are first and foremost a legal relation between states and individuals and impose duty on states. That does not mean that HRs are not relevant to ICANN, on the contrary! By virtue of what ICANN "does", there may be interference, and there actually is, when we consider the GDPR, for example. Even if we were to adopt a very strict reading of the law applicable to ICANN, its operations and the activities of the community (i.e. US Federal and California law only, disregarding offices abroad), because such operations and activities are likely to have "effects" anywhere in the world, someone, somewhere (anywhere!) could raise a HR entitlement to its government against ICANN. Again, this is very visible in the case of the GDPR. I obviously am volunteer to spell out this refinement more precisely, but I look forward to cooperating with any of you! I am also looking forward to reading your comments on this idea. Best, Raphael 2018-05-03 18:21 GMT+02:00 Michael Karanicolas <mkaranicolas@gmail.com>:
