ccNSO & Universal Acceptance Roadmap session
14:00-15:00 UTC (09:00-10:00 local) | Room: Auditorio (ccNSO)
Join meeting and consult session recordings
Universal Acceptance is cornerstone to a digitally inclusive and multilingual Internet, ensuring all domain names and email addresses – in any language, script, or using any new or long TLD – are accepted equally
by all Internet-enabled applications, devices, and systems.
The ccNSO previously explored its potential role in Universal Acceptance. To that end, it organized a session during ICANN75 where both ccTLDs and other stakeholders suggested activities the ccNSO could undertake
to complement existing work by the Internet community. In December 2022 and January 2023, ccTLD representatives participated in two workshops to further explore their expectations regarding potential ccNSO action and how to organize next efforts. After the
conclusion of the workshops, the ccNSO Council developed a plan, which
will be presented during this session at ICANN76. Join us and let us know your thoughts.
