Hi Vidushi, That looks great, thanks so much for drafting this! Perhaps we can drop the paragraph that begins with 'This builds on the', I think both the CCWP and the topic of human rights are well established in the community now. Thanks!

Hi All,

Please find below a draft of the CCWP request for a session at ICANN60 in Abu Dhabi. Look forward to your feedback/suggestions. Also interested to hear whether there are any additional ideas for what we could include in the session. Get in touch if you have any questions!

Warmly, Vidushi

ICANN60 - ICANN & human rights - CCWP-HR

Human rights are an increasingly crucial part of processes and community discussions at ICANN. The commitment to human rights is now part of the ICANN bylaws with the the Framework of Interpretation being finalised. The most recent budget also approves a human rights impact assessment (HRIA) for 2018.

The Cross Community Working Party on ICANNs Corporate and Social Responsibility to Respect Human Rights aims to provide an overview of ongoing human rights related processes and present research on ICANN's present and potential impact on human rights.

The session will begin with an overview of the human rights discussion at ICANN, with updates from the CCWG processes from Work-Stream 2. This will be followed by the presentation of a new report on potential HRIA models for the GNSO. This session hopes to better inform the nuances of human rights discussions at ICANN, while encouraging interactive and constructive cross-community participation. We will invite expert discussants from across stakeholder groups to provide feedback and dialogue at the session.

This builds on the sessions held since ICANN50 in London, on this issue as well as the previous reports that were produced on this topic which can be found here: http://icannhumanrights.net
