Requests

 

REMINDER: NextGen@ICANN Survey

Executive: Sally Costerton, Senior Adviser to President and Senior Vice President, Global Stakeholder Engagement

 

FOR: All Community Leaders

 

REQUEST

The ICANN organization is initiating a community consultation [r20.rs6.net] to identify improvement opportunities for the NextGen@ICANN Program [r20.rs6.net]. The review will start with gathering community input via a survey about several aspects of the NextGen@ICANN Program, including its purpose, goals, processes, and synergies with the ICANN academic community.

 

The survey [r20.rs6.net] (PDF with background at the beginning and questionnaire questions at the end) is intended for all ICANN community groups; individuals are encouraged to work with their relevant Supporting Organizations, Advisory Committees, stakeholder groups, and constituencies. Responses are due Monday, 9 September 2019.

 

Based on the input received from the survey, ICANN org will draft a proposal for program improvements that will be published for Public Comment. Once all feedback is received, ICANN org will prepare the final proposal for program improvements.

REMINDER: Third Accountability and Transparency Review Survey Available for Community Input

Executive: Theresa Swinehart, Senior Vice President, Multistakeholder Strategy and Strategic Initiatives

 

FOR: All Community Leaders

 

REQUEST

The third Accountability and Transparency Review Team (ATRT3) has published a survey for community input.

 

The aim of this survey is to collect opinions from individuals and groups in the ICANN community on ICANN’s accountability and transparency, and to help the ATRT3 Review Team identify areas which require improvement and could benefit from a recommendation.

 

The individual survey is available here: http://input.icann.org/go?iv=eupcis2ldyww

 

The group survey (intended to capture group responses from ICANN community groups) is available here: http://input.icann.org/go?iv=3j46tfx0r5yzt

 

Following the close of both surveys on Friday, 13 September 2019 at 23:59 UTC, the ATRT3 Review Team will evaluate responses as input to its draft final report. 

 

 

Information Sharing

 

NEW: Global Public Interest Framework Webinar

Executive: Sally Costerton, Senior Adviser to President and Senior Vice President, Global Stakeholder Engagement

 

FOR: All Community Leaders

 

INFORMATION SHARING

You are invited to attend a webinar to learn more about one of the ICANN Board’s operational priorities: the public interest.

 

The global public interest is central to many of ICANN’s primary governance documents, and the ICANN Board hopes to play a role in facilitating a bottom-up, community-driven process to develop a framework as a toolkit for the ICANN community to consider the global public interest. These considerations would not change the process by which decisions are made but could instead serve as tools for the community to reinforce the commitment to the public interest and to demonstrate how specific recommendations, advice, and public comments are in the global public interest. This includes the ICANN community guiding the ICANN Board about the public interest determination the latter must make in its decisions.

 

To learn more about the framework, please read the discussion paper [r20.rs6.net].

 

The Global Public Interest Framework Webinar has been scheduled for Tuesday, 17 September 2019 at 15:00 UTC.

 

To join the webinar, please visit https://icann.zoom.us/j/288558444
