The Consensus Playbook
by Julie Bisland April 22, 2020

April 22, 2020

Dear all, Please see the completed Consensus Playbook and background information below. Best Regards, GNSO Team == Consensus Playbook Published Originated from GNSO’s Policy Development Process (PDP) 3.0 initiative and a subsequent Additional Budget Request (ABR), the Consensus Playbook has been completed for the ICANN community to reference and use. The Consensus Playbook can be downloaded here: http://go.icann.org/consensus [go.icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__go.icann.org_consensus&…> This playbook was developed by an external vendor (Consensus Building Institute - CBI.org [cbi.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.cbi.org_&d=DwMGaQ&…>) via an Additional Budget Request [go.icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__go.icann.org_3bkd5Oz&d…> (ABR) for FY20 submitted by the GNSO Council, based on PDP 3.0 improvements [go.icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__go.icann.org_pdp3dot0&d…>. The ICANN Board approved<https://community.icann.org/x/Wxq8BQ> the ABR contingent upon the playbook being developed with broad applicability across the community, and not just limited to GNSO PDPs. Hence, this Consensus Playbook aims to provide community volunteers with practical tools and best practices for building consensus, bridging differences, and breaking deadlocks within ICANN processes beyond just GNSO working groups. In developing the playbook, CBI interviewed fourteen (14) ICANN community leaders across ICANN’s SOs and ACs, who shared their extensive consensus building experience in leading and participating in working groups and community groups. The playbook stresses that consensus building should be considered as a journey and it does not just take place at the end of a group’s deliberations. To that end, we’d like to draw your attention to Appendix A, which serves as a reference guide to help inform you which of the fifteen (15) “plays” are applicable to the various phases of the community’s work. It is important to note that this playbook does not seek to change the definition of consensus or the methods of decision making as prescribed in each community group’s rules and procedure; it does not seek to introduce any new requirements either. It is designed for the ICANN community and is only permitted to be used by the ICANN community in support of ICANN related work. The playbook shall not be used for any non-ICANN related purposes. All ICANN community volunteers are strongly encouraged to review the playbook. We anticipate additional opportunities for the ICANN community to discuss the contents and practical utility of the playbook.

Re: [Ccwg-auctionproceeds] [Ext] RE: Action for CCWG Members and Participants: Review Revised Report and Complete Poll

Hi Anne, Thanks for your message. Please see responses inline below in green. Kind regards, Emily From: "Aikman-Scalese, Anne" <AAikman(a)lrrc.com> Date: Wednesday, 8 April 2020 at 00:11 To: Emily Barabas <emily.barabas(a)icann.org>, Ccwg-auctionproceeds <ccwg-auctionproceeds(a)icann.org> Cc: "erika(a)erikamann.com" <erika(a)erikamann.com> Subject: [Ext] RE: Action for CCWG Members and Participants: Review Revised Report and Complete Poll Many thanks, Emily. I have two comments and one question before taking this back to the CSG for review: 1. In the text at the top of page 28 of the redlined draft Final Report, I believe the following sentence should end after the word, “applications” in order to be consistent with the change agreed by the CCWG in its review of public comment. The CCWG agreed that currently existing ICANN accountability measures such as IRP may not be used to challenge decisions on individual applications that are not successful. (DELETE “that are not successful”.) Thanks for catching this. This text will be removed, consistent with the other edits in this section. 2. I believe we will need to see at least a draft of the letter to the ICANN Board that is referred to in the Action Items before we can conduct the Consensus Call. Note that only the report and recommendations will be subject to a consensus call. These are the official outputs of the Working Group that will be considered by the Chartering Organizations and the Board. The letter will provide brief context for the report and will contain several items raised in public comment that the CCWG considered out of its scope but that may be relevant as further work is completed on this topic. While the contents of the letter should not impact your ability to participate in the consensus call on the recommendations, the leadership team will nonetheless provide a draft of the letter soon so that CCWG members have time to review before the CCWG completes its work. 3. Is the informal poll that we are being asked to take again before April 24 a question of our personal opinion or is it expected to be in line with anticipated Consensus Call? Thanks for raising this question. If you are a member of the CCWG representing a group, it is expected that your response to the poll aligns with your group’s position on the mechanisms (to the extent that your group has a position). Participants are not serving as representatives, and therefore may respond in their personal capacity. Note that the leadership team will be focused most closely on the responses of members in reviewing the poll results.
