Subject: Community Strategic Outlook Trend Sessions

***SENT ON BEHALF of the ICANN Planning team****

Dear ccNSO Council and SOPC:

As shared in the ICANN Community Leadership Digest, ICANN is kicking off the FY23 Strategic Outlook program. We are reaching out to discuss the opportunity to hold a trend session with your group over the next few weeks. 

Sessions will be held virtually in Zoom, and in English only. 

We can only accommodate 35 active participants in a session, due to the nature of the exercise, and propose to accept participants on a first come, first serve basis, unless you have other suggestions.

Please complete the Doodle to identify a date and time (by COB 2 Feb 2022):  https://doodle.com/poll/mkw35by78n3pwn27?utm_source=poll&utm_medium=link

A session will take about 120 min, organized as follows:

🞈   Welcome (5’)

🞈   Plenary presentation of Strategic Outlook process (5’)

🞈   Break-out into subgroups; trends identification exercise (50’)

🞈   Break (10’)

🞈   Return to plenary and share results (35’)

🞈   Individual votes for top-3 priorities (10’)

🞈   Adjourn (5’)

We are targeting to complete the trend sessions by the end of March. Once complete, ICANN org will conduct a trend analysis and impact assessment, which is scheduled for April-May. This will be followed by an impact assessment in June-July.

We hope that your group will participate in this important discussion on ICANN planning and strategy, and that you can fit a session in your schedule over the next few weeks.

Thank you.
