NEW: CSC Appointments

Executive: Cyrus Namazi, Senior Vice President, Global Domains Division

 

FOR: All Community Leaders

 

INFORMATION SHARING

Community groups who have members on/liaisons to the Customer Standing Committee (CSC) will be notified if their representative's term is ending this September 2019. Appointing community groups are encouraged to start their internal election processes to appoint a new member/liaison by Thursday, 1 August 2019. Per ICANN Bylaws, when the term of a CSC member/liaison [r20.rs6.net] is set to expire in September of that year, the Appointing Organization should utilize their internal election process and notify ICANN of the selected appointee. The notifications going out to the chairs will contain more detailed information.

I know everyone is busy preparing for ICANN65, but I want to make you aware that you are

Engagement Booth is in place for newcomers, ICANN org, and the ICANN community to engage in

discussions. It is supported by volunteers from the community, including members of ICANN's Supporting

Organizations and Advisory Committees. It would be beneficial to have the presence of seasoned

ICANN community members to share their knowledge. We would like to offer one-hour slots during

ICANN65. Please click here [r20.rs6.net] to sign up for a slot.

REMINDER: Meet with the ATRT3 Review Team at ICANN65

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

 

FOR: All SO/AC Chairs

 

INFORMATION SHARING

The third Accountability and Transparency Review Team (ATRT3) will meet in Marrakech to advance its work. As some of the team will be in Marrakech we would like to ask for a 30 to 40-minute slot on your community group's agenda, if possible.

 

Community input is key to the success of this process. If you are able to accommodate us on your agenda, please send us an email to <atrt3-coordination@icann.org> to let us know a day and time that would suit. We will send you a preliminary set of questions ahead of the meeting to aid the discussion. We also welcome any questions you wish to raise in advance.

 

Our goal for Marrakech is to:

- Socialize our terms of reference and scope;

- Conduct investigation of identified objectives

- Seek input from the community to help us shape our findings and draft recommendations.

 

BACKGROUND

The ATRT review is mandated by ICANN Bylaws Section 4.6 (b) to examine ICANN’s execution of its commitment to maintain and improve robust mechanisms for public input, accountability, and transparency so as to ensure that the outcomes of its decision-making reflect the public interest and are accountable to the Internet community.

 

Prior to meeting in Marrakech, the review team met on 3-5 April in Los Angeles for its first substantive meeting to develop our terms of reference and work plan, in response to the Board Resolution (2018.10.25.15) requesting that “ATRT3 adopt its Terms of Reference and Work Plan within 60 days of convening its first meeting, and submit these documents to the Board and to the leadership of the Supporting Organizations and the Advisory Committees, to confirm that the team's scope and timeline are consistent with the requirements of the ICANN Bylaws and ICANN community expectations.”

 

We look forward to hearing from you.

 

Many thanks and best regards,

 

Cheryl Langdon-Orr and Pat Kane, ATRT3 Co-Chairs
