We are looking for participation from community members in the trend identification sessions through their Supporting Organization (SO) or Advisory Committee (AC). ICANN will collaborate with SO and AC chairs and support teams to schedule sessions from March through May 2023. This program is a joint effort of the ICANN ecosystem to identify and track trends that are related to ICANN. This ensures that the opportunities and challenges are incorporated into current and future planning. Once trends are identified, ICANN will conduct a trend analysis and impact assessment. Significant shifts could result in adjustments to the strategic plan. Moreover, new trends or shifts in existing trends also impact the operating plans (five-year or annual) and/or budget, and are factored into the annual iteration of those plans as appropriate. All strategic outlook sessions will be conducted virtually, and community members are encouraged to join this important discussion. We look forward to your participation in this dialogue about ICANN planning and strategy. Thank you for your support in the ICANN planning process.

I would especially like to thank everyone for fostering an overwhelmingly positive and collegial environment, in which we were able to make real progress toward our shared goals. The ICANN community, Board, and organization advanced the discussion of and policymaking around the most pressing issues that ICANN is facing, including Domain Name System (DNS) abuse, the future of technical Internet governance, and the next round of new gTLD applications.

As UA adoption has grown, it has become increasingly important to focus on measuring UA progress and challenges to identify where resources and support are needed most. That is why ICANN recently conducted two surveys to assess the UA-readiness of key stakeholder groups and published reports of the results. The first report, “UA Readiness Survey Report – Contracted Parties and Registry Service Providers [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001X1mmtZxQSCuDDzb7…>,” examines the UA-readiness of registry operators, registrars, and registry service providers. The second report, “UA Readiness Survey Report – ccTLDs [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001X1mmtZxQSCuDDzb7…>,” covers country code top-level domain (ccTLD) managers.

DNSSEC ensures that the information received from the DNS about a domain name is authentic and helps make the Internet safer for its billions of users. IANA plans to generate the new key during the 49th KSK Ceremony on 27 April. The key will be replicated to an alternate facility in the third quarter of 2023. IANA plans to prepublish the key in the DNS, starting in January 2024. It will be held in standby for about two years, during which ICANN will conduct an extensive outreach campaign to ensure a seamless transition to the new key for the global Internet community.

This program is a joint effort of the ICANN ecosystem to identify and track trends that are related to ICANN. This ensures that the opportunities and challenges are incorporated into current and future planning. Once trends are identified, ICANN will conduct a trend analysis and impact assessment. Significant shifts could result in adjustments to the strategic plan. Moreover, new trends or shifts in existing trends also impact the operating plans (five-year or annual) and/or budget, and are factored into the annual iteration of those plans as appropriate. All strategic outlook sessions will be conducted virtually, and community members are encouraged to join this important discussion. We look forward to your participation in this dialogue about ICANN planning and strategy. Thank you for your support in the ICANN planning process.

We are looking for participation from community members in the trend identification sessions through their Supporting Organization (SO) or Advisory Committee (AC). ICANN will collaborate with SO and AC chairs and support teams to schedule sessions from March through May 2023. This program is a joint effort of the ICANN ecosystem to identify and track trends that are related to ICANN. This ensures that the opportunities and challenges are incorporated into current and future planning. Once trends are identified, ICANN will conduct a trend analysis and impact assessment. Significant shifts could result in adjustments to the strategic plan. Moreover, new trends or shifts in existing trends also impact the operating plans (five-year or annual) and/or budget, and are factored into the annual iteration of those plans as appropriate. All strategic outlook sessions will be conducted virtually, and community members are encouraged to join this important discussion. We look forward to your participation in this dialogue about ICANN planning and strategy. Thank you for your support in the ICANN planning process.
