FW: Secretary's Notice to Empowered Community of Board Approval of Five-Year Strategic Plan for FY21-25
Hi all, The attached notice, dated 2 July 2019, concerns the GNSO’s obligations as a decisional participant in the Empowered Community vis-à-vis approval of the FY21-25 Strategic Plan. This notice triggered the bylaw-mandated 21-day period for decisional participants to consider initiating a Rejection Action Process (RAP). Here’s the relevant language from the letter: “This Board Notice triggers the Empowered Community Rejection Action Process as set out at Annex D, Section 2 of the ICANN Bylaws. The timeline for the Empowered Community’s exercise of this Rejection Action Process will be tracked, including the associated deadlines, at https://www.icann.org/ec. The first deadline is a 21-day period for Decisional Participants to each consider if it will raise a petition.” As such, we have until 24 July 2019 to take action if needed. (NOTE: This original email was sent by ICANN the day I went on vacation and I only got to it upon my return. Procedurally, we are working to address this situation to avoid single-threaded communications on such important matters, and/or to ensure Staff have a standing action to forward such communications to the full Council list. I apologize for the delay in forwarding this.) We can discuss further on the Council call this week.

Dear Keith, All - I find in particular risk related points raised on page 15 (ICANN’s governance) and 24 (Geopolitics) are not fully appropriate. ICANN’s Governance (page 15) Strategic risks: • Unclear community and organizational priorities compete for scarce resources. • The cost to implement ICANN’s multistakeholder model becomes unaffordable. • Polarized positions or agendas that do not represent the collective interest impede progress and waste resources. • Increased workload for the ICANN community, Board, and org impact the ability to effectively support ongoing work, resulting in community fatigue or stakeholder disengagement. • Process complexity impedes ICANN’s ability to keep pace with the speed of external events that impact its future. • Perceived or actual delays in decision-making fuel doubts about ICANN’s ability to address serious global issues in a timely fashion. Geopolitics (page 24) Strategic risks: • ICANN’s inability to establish itself as a key player in Internet governance results in increased external interventions by nation states or other entities. • Failure to anticipate legislative efforts force ICANN into a reactive mode Best, Erika Sent from my iPhone

Hi Erika, Thanks for your note below. Can you please elaborate a bit on why you see these as not fully appropriate for inclusion in ICANN’s 5-year Strategic Plan? As I noted below, we have until next week (24 July) to exercise any action as a Decisional Participant in the Empowered Community concerning a Rejection Action Process (RAP). Is it your view the Council should consider this action, or something else? Separately, there is an open public comment period (closes 5 August) on Draft Financial Assumptions & Projections and Operating Initiatives for the development of Fiscal Years 2021-2025 Operating & Financial Plan. https://www.icann.org/public-comments/draft-financial-projections-fy2021-202... This was flagged in AOB during yesterday’s Council call, but there was no substantive discussion. Thanks in advance!
