Dear all,
Meridian Institute, the independent examiner conducting the second review of the Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO),
has published a survey for community input.

Click here to take the survey now.
The aim of the survey is to collect input from those who have interacted with ccNSO or have suggestions for ways to improve it. The survey is informed by learnings from Meridian Institute's research and interviews conducted to date.
Following the close of the survey on 21 December 2018 at 23:59 UTC, Meridian Institute will evaluate responses, along with input received via interviews and other forums, as input to its assessment report. The assessment report
is expected to be posted for community consultation in February 2019.
As with all ICANN Organizational Reviews, the second ccNSO Review is following a two-phased approach, in which the independent examiner
first completes its assessment and then makes recommendations to address the findings noted during the assessment.
The purpose of the Bylaws-mandated ccNSO Review is to determine (i) whether the ccNSO has a continuing purpose
within the ICANN structure; (ii) how effectively the ccNSO fulfills its purpose and whether any change in its structure or operations is desirable to improve the ccNSO's effectiveness; and (iii) the extent to which the ccNSO as a whole is accountable to its
organizations, committees, constituencies, and stakeholder groups. Meridian Institute was selected to conduct the second ccNSO Review in August 2018.
Best regards.
Joke Braeken
ccNSO Policy Advisor
