Dear colleagues, In Part II of the Council meeting on 1 November (in Abu Dhabi), Donna and I provided a high-level introduction to the rough draft agenda for our January strategic planning session, as developed by me, Donna and James. We have received funding for 3 full days. Secretariat team, please could we add this to the November 30 Council agenda as a discussion item? Council colleagues, please consider the draft and seize the opportunity to make suggestions/ask questions at our next meeting. Best wishes, Heather

Heather Thanks to you all for your work on this. The only question I'd have is in relation to discussing the current workload / projects within the GNSO and upcoming work that we will need to address. This might be captured in one of the existing sessions, but I'd like to be sure that it is given ample time.

Dear Heather, Donna and James! Thank you very much for this forward looking effort and opportunity to better prepare for the year ahead.
From my perspective, the single biggest change for the Council is the Empowered Community, and its new tendency to bring every issue (policy included) at the CCWG level.
Frankly,dedicating only the morning of the second day to this issue seems to me very limited, unless there is some previous discussion, and/or a discussion framework for analysis of the role of the GNSO within the new empowered community. I think that some more thinking of that relation has to be done in preparation to all session, but in particular to Tuesday morning. But I'm confident that you will be able to mange the group dynamics productively across all themes and the 3 days, so I don't worry too much, neither do i expect a long explantation of what do we expect from Tuesday mornings session. personally, I would like to add that if the budget allows for a different Hotel, maybe one of the two hotels across the highway which are connected to the shopping center, it would greatly enhance our happiness before the trip. (in other words, the Hilton stinks) nice Sunday to all of you Carlos Raúl Gutiérrez ISOC Costa Rica Chapter skype carlos.raulg +506 8837 7176 ________ Apartado 1571-1000 COSTA RICA On Wed, Nov 8, 2017 at 10:40 PM, Heather Forrest <haforrestesq@gmail.com> wrote:
