Dear Country Code Names Supporting Organization Council Chair and Vice Chairs,
**Please reply no later than Wednesday 1**1 October **2023**
ICANN78 is right at our doorstep, and the Board and I couldn’t be happier about the opportunity to meet with all of you in Hamburg from October 21st to 26th.
This upcoming meeting is not only a chance for us to come together and discuss our common interests, but it’s also a momentous occasion as we celebrate ICANN’s remarkable 25th Anniversary.
We’re diligently preparing for the upcoming Annual General Meeting, and we are equally excited about the celebration that awaits. Rest assured, we will share more details with you soon.
In the meantime, I want to remind you of the positive changes we initiated during our time in Cancún, which were favorably received:
1. Tailored questions designed to cater to the unique needs of each stakeholder group.
2. A blog that highlighted key takeaways from the ICANN Meeting.
3. Summaries of bilateral sessions included in the Policy Outcomes Report published after the ICANN meeting.
In the next few months, we will be suggesting additional improvements that we hope will enhance our partnership’s performance and transparency, all with your satisfaction in mind.
Meanwhile though, it is important that we continue listening to your specific needs and therefore here is the questions we would like to ask *your* Group ahead of our joint session in Hamburg:
*- The ccNSO is well known for its willingness to experiment and try new approaches. What would be your suggestions to other SOACs and to the Board in implementing continuous improvement program? *
*-What would be your suggestions to the Board to make Board’s interaction with the community and individual groups more useful and productive?*
We look forward to hearing your thoughts on this soon.
We would be grateful if you could send to Board Operations ( board-ops-team@icann.org) the questions you would like the Board to address during our face-to-face meetings. Given the finite time available for these meetings, please list your questions in order of priority. We would also appreciate getting your questions no later than *Wednesday 11 October, 2023*.
Looking forward to engaging discussions and shared celebrations in Hamburg!
Best regards,
Tripti Sinha
Chair, ICANN Board of Directors
