Universal Acceptance: the Path Forward
by Satish Babu May 5, 2025

May 5, 2025

Dear all The Universal Acceptance Steering Group (UASG) has made significant strides in enhancing awareness about UA over the last decade, and lately, driving it's adoption. The ICANN Board has acknowledged the work of UASG in the last ICANN meeting through a resolution. Looking forward, the ICANN Board has charted out new directions for the work around UA, both for the ICANN Community and for partnering organizations. Please see below the blog, from the ICANN CEO, on the new Board decisions around UA, outling changes in focus, which may be rolled out over a period of time starting from around June 2025: https://www.icann.org/en/blogs/details/universal-acceptance-aligning-resour… With kind regards satish
