Dear Community Members: Based on the feedback we received during consultations at the ICANN 80 Kigali meeting, we have made some amendments to our plans. As a result, we are pleased to announce that the Public Comment period for the draft ICANN Strategic Plan and draft ICANN Operational Plan for fiscal years 2026–2030 will now begin on 23 July.

This is an important opportunity for you to review and provide feedback on these critical documents. We apologize for any inconvenience this change in date may cause and appreciate your understanding and patience.

In the coming days, we will publish a detailed blog post that will provide more information about the draft plans. Additionally, we will host two informational webinars following the launch of the Public Comment period to further discuss the content and answer any initial questions you may have.

Thank you for your continued engagement and support.

Sincerely,

ICANN Planning Team
