Re: [Ccwg-auctionproceeds] Revised review/assessment proposal
Attached is the final version. In response to Becky's comment, I have added the word "cumulative" in 3rd APPRP bullet. It now reads: The prime function of the APPRP will be to perform an annual review (starting at the end of year 2) of the ongoing operational process including an assessment of approved projects vs auction proceeds goals and an cumulative assessment of the success of funded projects (based on interim and final assessments provided to the APPRP). This hopefully makes it clear that the APPRP is not actually assessing project success but is looking at the cumulative or average success of the entire project portfolio.

Becky’s comments touch on an area that may need better clarity. This is the start of a new undertaking and the annual review wording might be cast slightly differently. Something like:
* The prime function of the APPRP will be to perform an annual review, starting at the end of year 2. The first annual review will focus on Mechanism development and an assessment of approved projects relative to auction proceeds goals. Subsequent reviews will include an assessment of funded projects, based on interim and final assessments provided to the APPRP.
* The APPRP will focus on the Mechanism in terms of its operational performance and the auction proceeds goals. It will not investigate individual projects beyond what is provided in the assessments provided to the APPRP. Casting the wording something like this (a) distinguishes between the initial assessment and subsequent assessments, and (b) limits individual project assessment to evidence “provided to the APPRP”. That does leave open the question of who provides that evidence. I assume that is the project recipient’s own self reporting, with the Mechanism responsible for assessing the quality of the reporting.

Perhaps an "overall assessment of approved projects, etc"?... because as is, it still sounds as if it does the assessment. To me anyway 🙂 On Wed, 28 Aug 2019, 10:38 AM Alan Greenberg, <alan.greenberg@mcgill.ca> wrote:

In my opinion "overall" works better than "cumulative", which might be misunderstood. Sam L Get BlueMail for Android On Aug. 28, 2019, 16:45, at 16:45, Maureen Hilyard <maureen.hilyard@gmail.com> wrote:

agree with Maureen and Sam. cumulative could be read to mean that each project is reviewed. NOT what we are agreeing on.
I do want you all to know I am still following along. This is all WAY TOO MUCH in my view (both experts on review and this de minimis role for the community wrapped in another convoluted process) but I respect others opinions and efforts. If others agree with me I would love to hear, just to know I am not alone. I am also not sure if we are now not down to a very small group that is still playing along. EN

Well, Elliot I believe we will come to the conclusion during our next call that we will recommend a second public comment period, this would allow a broader part of the community to participate. But we can’t discuss these topics forever. There comes a point where we have to jump and have to have the trust that things will get corrected if they’re not working out as planned. We have included various review cycles that would allow such a correction. Erika Sent from my iPhone

“Playing along” was not meant in a derogatory way. In fact it was intended as a positive. Apologies if it came across otherwise. I should more accurately have said “still participating”. The people who join and lurk are many. Those who stick it out and work are few. That speaks positively of the few not the many. Hope that clarifies. Iirc this started with something like 60+ people. We are probably 20% of that active at this point. EN

Yes, Elliot, and I do appreciate your response and your clarification. I learned a long time ago to watch the attendance at all meetings, but also to look at who posts to see who may be very actively engaged, but did a quick analysis of the attendance rates of each of the members, and also the participants, and I also looked at who posts. That took a lot of time but I thought it worthwhile, as my training in Organizational Development taught me to loo for the obvious and the non obvious. Fortunately, the attendance records help us to document who is engaging. As do the posting records, which show the active engagement of several of the members and also some participants. I think there are multiple indicators of commitment and interest: e.g. people don't show up on calls, due to travel or conflicts with other meetings, but they read and post comments, which shows their active engagement. e.g. people actively fill in the doodle polls so that a meeting with the most attendance can be selected e.g. people who can't attend send regrets, so that it is clear they are participating, even if not able to attend a particular meeting. We have been competing with the EPDP and I am not being critical, just making an observation but for many, it has sort of sucked all the air out of the room of participation and personally, I have to respect that, while also striving to make sure that the community has the participation that it expected. Certainly, we have had great Board liaison, great staff support, dedicated co chairs, and a core group of participants. But, in some ways, this is why I want a second public comment period, although I'd prefer a 30 day period for public comments. Again, thanks for your reponse.

I hope this is not an imposition. We have segued into a discussion of participation and I would like to add a comment or two. The first is that within its work multistakeholder ICANN starts with an endemic imbalance. Those stakeholder groups with an economic self-interest in issues are always there, and usually paid to be there. GAC, with its political interests, operates under constraints that they are partially uncomfortable with. GAC both partially adjusts and seeks other forms of leverage, within ICANN’s remit, with efforts at leverage from elsewhere. The participation of the ngo and civil society sector suffers from the fact that it does not represent sector, instead it's self-selected members participate */in the interests of/* the issues important to that sector. The result is a three-legged working process and policy stool where the leg representing economic self-interest (contract and non-contracted business parties) is strong, determined and well resourced. The GAC leg is well resourced but constrained by GAC’s advisory role.

Judith, */Mea culpa/.* I did fail to give At Large its well deserved and proper due. It was an omission due to haste. /*Mea Culpa*/.

HI Sam,
Sorry to wade in to this discussion which is not really on target but felt that I needed to correct some assumptions that Sam has made. Sam LanFranco, I respect your time and contributions, but in your description you left out At Large, we are representing the Public Interest which you have neglected to mention. Our volunteers (Members and Participants within CCWG-Auction Proceeds) spend countless hours working on these issues and get no reimbursement of compensation for our times spent, but if you look at the attendance and contribution measures we are always there at these meetings but the same could not be said for NCSG contingency. Our volunteers are deeply committed to these issues and many of them make time to come to these meetings, taking time out of their work day, waking up very early in the morning or staying up very late at night, so we beg to differ on your slight. We are not paid by our jobs for any of the countless hours we put in representing the public interest, but many of us do this because we are so passionate about it
While many of us in At Large agree with your statement below, we still manage to find the time to show up and contribute.
"This labor-intensive process gives favorable weight to the business sector, with its paid engagement, and less weight to ngo/civil society sector inputs that depends on volunteer labor. There is no clear or easy way to address this imbalance, one which ICANN org downplays to bolster its multistakeholder image. The differential resource bases and -at best- well meaning efforts as representation of public interest will continue to complicate engagement in the working group process."
Best,
Judith

I hope this is not an imposition. We have segued into a discussion of participation and I would like to add a comment or two. The first is that within its work multistakeholder ICANN starts with an endemic imbalance. Those stakeholder groups with an economic self-interest in issues are always there, and usually paid to be there. GAC, with its political interests, operates under constraints that they are partially uncomfortable with. GAC both partially adjusts and seeks other forms of leverage, within ICANN’s remit, with efforts at leverage from elsewhere. The participation of the ngo and civil society sector suffers from the fact that it does not represent sector, instead it's self-selected members participate */in the interests of/* the issues important to that sector.
The result is a three-legged working process and policy stool where the leg representing economic self-interest (contract and non-contracted business parties) is strong, determined and well resourced.

Becky’s comments touch on an area that may need better clarity. This is the start of a new undertaking and the annual review wording might be cast slightly differently. Something like:
* The prime function of the APPRP will be to perform an annual review, starting at the end of year 2. The first annual review will focus on Mechanism development and an assessment of approved projects relative to auction proceeds goals. Subsequent reviews will include an assessment of funded projects, based on interim and final assessments provided to the APPRP.
* The APPRP will focus on the Mechanism in terms of its operational performance and the auction proceeds goals. It will not investigate individual projects beyond what is provided in the assessments provided to the APPRP. Casting the wording something like this (a) distinguishes between the initial assessment and subsequent assessments, and (b) limits individual project assessment to evidence “provided to the APPRP†. That does leave open the question of who provides that evidence. I assume that is the project recipient’s own self reporting, with the Mechanism responsible for assessing the quality of the reporting.

* For avoidance of doubt, the APPRP will focus on the overall operation of the Mechanism and will not evaluate the success of individual funded projects, although the APPRP may take into consideration such evaluations performed by the Mechanism. In the first bullet, perhaps it would be clearer to say "an assessment of the overall success of the program"?

In response to Becky's comment, I have added the word "cumulative" in 3rd APPRP bullet. It now reads: The prime function of the APPRP will be to perform an annual review (starting at the end of year 2) of the ongoing operational process including an assessment of approved projects vs auction proceeds goals and an cumulative assessment of the success of funded projects (based on interim and final assessments provided to the APPRP). This hopefully makes it clear that the APPRP is not actually assessing project success but is looking at the cumulative or average success of the entire project portfolio.

As an aside, if the APPRP feels that the Mechanism is not doing proper project result evaluation, that would be a dandy reason to suggest an APPAP. Alan At 26/08/2019 05:29 PM, Becky Burr wrote:
I think it is fine for APPRP to use the individual assessments provided by experts to measure the overall success of the program, but very concerned about any evaluation of individual projects by the APPRP. I am concerned that Sam’s language below leaves that door open.

Becky’s comments touch on an area that may need better clarity. This is the start of a new undertaking and the annual review wording might be cast slightly differently. Something like:
* The prime function of the APPRP will be to perform an annual review, starting at the end of year 2. The first annual review will focus on Mechanism development and an assessment of approved projects relative to auction proceeds goals. Subsequent reviews will include an assessment of funded projects, based on interim and final assessments provided to the APPRP.
* The APPRP will focus on the Mechanism in terms of its operational performance and the auction proceeds goals. It will not investigate individual projects beyond what is provided in the assessments provided to the APPRP. Casting the wording something like this (a) distinguishes between the initial assessment and subsequent assessments, and (b) limits individual project assessment to evidence “provided to the APPRP†. That does leave open the question of who provides that evidence. I assume that is the project recipient’s own self reporting, with the Mechanism responsible for assessing the quality of the reporting.

* For avoidance of doubt, the APPRP will focus on the overall operation of the Mechanism and will not evaluate the success of individual funded projects, although the APPRP may take into consideration such evaluations performed by the Mechanism. In the first bullet, perhaps it would be clearer to say "an assessment of the overall success of the program"?
