Universal Acceptance
by Roberto Gaetano July 25, 2019

July 25, 2019

Hi all. As most of you know, I have been always pushing for Universal Acceptance, including the deployment of IDN TLDs. I strongly believe that this is one of the game changers for reaching out to the next billion Internet users and giving equal opportunities for enjoying the benefits of online communication. There will be a working session at EuroDIG (https://www.eurodig.org<https://www.eurodig.org/>) on this topic on Wednesday 6 June - see the full programme at https://eurodigwiki.org/wiki/Consolidated_programme_2018. I have been appointed focal point for the session, and will therefore coordinate participation. I wonder whether there are any former Directors that are either directly interested or could indicate people within their respective networks who are interested in participating to the discussion on this topic and/or joining the session in Tbilisi. The first step would be to join the EuroDIG-WS6 mailing list, where the session on Universal Acceptance is being prepared. Instructions for joining can be found at the WS6 info page (https://list.eurodig.org/mailman/listinfo/ws6) Please feel free to contact me for further information. Thanks, Roberto

Moroccan music festival just before the ICANN meeting in Marrakesh
by Roberto Gaetano April 15, 2019

April 15, 2019

Hi all. We have an excellent opportunity to be exposed to the local musical culture when attending the ICANN meeting in Marrakesh. In Essaouira - close to Marrakesh - the Gnawa Festival (see http://www.essaouira.nu/calendar_festival_gnaoua.htm) will take place from 20 to 23 June. The ICANN meeting will start officially on the 24 June - but some activities are likely to start earlier. Aziz Hilali, whom we all know, told me that it would be possible to organise day trips from Marrakesh to Essaouira to allow people to go there for the festival. The reason why we strongly recommend day trips from Marrakesh is twofold: people who want to attend only one day can do so without changing hotel and, last but not least, it will be extremely difficult to get a hotel in Essaouira during the festival. As a matter of fact, having had myself difficulties in finding accommodation in Essaouira off-season I can well believe that for these hot dates the place will be fully booked already now, three months in advance. Anyway, long story short, I have prepared a Doodle poll and ask you to fill in your preferred dates should you be willing and able to join this initiative. Based on the response, busses could be organised for the popular dates. We need to have a first idea about whether there is enough interest - if this is the case, we can go to the next step: Aziz will announce this option when presenting ICANN 65 later this week and we can start making concrete plans, including scheduling the arrival date accordingly. Of course, please feel free to forward the Doodle poll url https://doodle.com/poll/f4cq8vwnu56uzws9 to your other communities and stakeholder groups. If anybody is not comfortable to put their names in the Doodle page - where all participants to the poll can read them - please feel free to email me directly mentioning the possible dates of interest. Best regards, Roberto

Fwd: [cc-humanrights] ICANN64 Update
by Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond March 16, 2019

March 16, 2019

FYI - progress regarding the Human Rights Impact Assessment.Kindest regards,OlivierSent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone. -------- Original message --------From: Collin Kurre <collin(a)article19.org> Date: 16/03/2019 12:51 (GMT+09:00) To: CCWP-HR <cc-humanrights(a)icann.org> Subject: [cc-humanrights] ICANN64 Update Dear colleagues,I’m delighted to share that tangible progress was made toward the implementation of ICANN’s Human Rights Core Value at ICANN64! Some highlights:PDP HRIA Model – We had a productive working session during our F2F meeting, which will inform the next iteration of the HRIA model (version 3.4). Examples of feedback received:Further considerations of the rights of indigenous and disabled peoples;Incorporation of elements of the HR Framework of Interpretation;Inclusion of relevant resolutions, principles, and decisions made by IGOs in addition to applicable human rights law; andAddition of “Explainer” tab, including normative standards for assessing severity of impact and other indicators.Sub Pros – The Trial HRIA was shared with the Subsequent Procedures Working Group (work tracks 1-4) during their F2F meetings in Kobe. Many of the assessment observations fed into substantive policy discussions, and recommendations were deemed useful by co-chairs Jeff Neuman, Cheryl Langdon-Orr, and other long-standing PDP members. This positive feedback is a good indicator for the viability of the current assessment framework.GAC Implementation – In parallel, the GAC Human Rights International Law Working Group (HRIL WG) recently conducted a member survey regarding implementation options for the Human Rights Core Value. One of these options provided for the participation of the GAC in HRIAs or similar procedural steps established for PDPs. (Perhaps Jorge or Suada could tell us a bit more about this work and its reception within the GAC when they have a chance?)Please feel free to elaborate or chime in with other thoughts / highlights coming out of ICANN64. We’ll gather these reflections and post a summary to the website once the meeting records have been posted.Kind regards,Collin KurreCCWP-HR Co-Chair

NomCom - deadline for applications 22 March 2019
by Schweighofer Erich March 12, 2019

March 12, 2019

Dear all, some update about the NomCom’s work by a recent blog of Pablo Rodriguez. Questions are very welcome! Erich Schweighofer, NomCom (ALAC-EU) The 2019 Nominating Committee’s (NomCom’s) initiatives to fill 10 open leadership positions continue in earnest (visit: https://www.icann.org/nomcom2019 for more information). Three NomCom sub-committees (Job Description, Character, and Qualities (JDCQ); Application Form; and Outreach) have completed a guide outlining the job description and desired candidate traits, and updated the application form. These sub-committees are also continuing their efforts to identify a highly motivated and talented pool of diverse individuals. The JDCQ sub-committee sought feedback from ICANN Board members in order to draft an accurate job description and to identify traits that candidates should possess to perform effectively as a member of the Board. The JDCQ sub-committee members integrated the feedback received with information from their own work and discussions. The JDCQ sub-committee sought feedback from ICANN Board members in order to draft an accurate job description and to identify traits that candidates should possess to perform effectively as a member of the Board. The JDCQ sub-committee members integrated the feedback received with information from their own work and discussions. The approved job description and list of traits are available to potential candidates here: https://www.icann.org/nomcom2019. The Application Form sub-committee revised the application form based on feedback from 2018 NomCom applicants. The three most common concerns were multiple requests for the same information when applying for multiple positions, form length, and clear instructions. Another equally important concern involved some applicants’ perception that the form was biased against ICANN outsiders. In response, the Application Form sub-committee streamlined and shortened the form to avoid duplication of information required by applicants seeking multiple positions and made revisions to address bias concerns. In addition to seeking information about applicants’ ICANN engagement, the revised form seeks information about applicants’ broader Internet development and governance experience. It also includes four separate questions about the applicant’s executive management background and experience as a board or trustee member. We are excited that ICANN support staff introduced a new and more user-friendly online application platform<https://webportalapp.com/sp/login/icann-nomcom-submission-portal> where applicants no longer must perform a two-step process to complete their application and can now simply create an account, complete the form, upload new data, and save at their own pace. The Outreach sub-committee continues its work to identify highly-motivated talented individuals willing to serve in the 10 open leadership positions and to elicit an array of applicants who reflect ICANN’s diverse community of individuals from all regions of the world. Outreach sub-committee members sought information from current and former Board members for input and ideas regarding outreach. This sub-committee employs a two-fold approach that involves the participation of its members to spread the message in their respective communities and through external channels such as academic institutions, chambers of commerce, and executive associations. Outreach efforts will continue until the close of the application period. The NomCom will continue its work to streamline these processes for applicants and reminds ICANNcommunity members and their contacts to submit completed applications before 22 March 2019 at 23:59 (UTC). ao.
