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.

EURALO Hot Topics - forwarded email from Jean-Jacques Subrenat, about Macron's speech at the IGF
by Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond Feb. 19, 2019

Feb. 19, 2019

Dear colleagues, an action item from our January EURALO call was: Olivier Crepin-Leblond <https://community.icann.org/display/~olivier.crepin-leblond> to forward Jean Jacques Subrenat's summary of Macron's speech at the IGF to the EURALO mailing list. With apologies for having dropped this and not forwarded it earlier, please be so kind to find Jean-Jacques' summary in the forwarded message below. This is to be discussed further, with regards to the EURALO Hot Topics. Kindest regards, Olivier -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Re: Action Item on EURALO monthly call December 2018 Date: Tue, 22 Jan 2019 19:14:49 +0100 From: Jean-Jacques Subrenat <jjs(a)dyalog.net> To: Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond <ocl(a)gih.com> CC: silvia Vivanco <silvia.vivanco(a)icann.org> Dear Olivier, Dear Silvia, here’s a brief résumé about President Macron’s speech at the IGF-2018 in Paris. If you wish, I could present the topic orally in the second half of our conference call later today, because a discussion would be warranted. If E. Macron’s speech gave rise to some concerns, these were heard mainly on the side of large corporations, say in the USA, who reacted to the use of the R word, largely banished from their vocabulary. For some, Regulation is the beginning of Communism. From the standpoint of the global Internet user, I would point out the following features: - Threats to the Internet and its users: - Structural: the single, unique Internet is under the risk of breaking up into national segments or continental ‘’plates’' - Cybercrime is a direct threat to physical security of the Internet, and to the continued availability of public services. - The global Internet now needs ‘’decisive, but lucid action’’ in order to preserve or protect - ideals, values - net neutrality - It is a falsehood to describe net neutrality as leading to the end of free thought. One must distinguish between neutrality and universality. - In light of the above, it is time for us all to ‘’build a new space'', with - ‘’an open and safe Internet’' - with adequate respect for ideals and values - In order to preserve the Internet and global users against these dangers, it has become necessary to set up some degree or regulation: - because governments espouse different values: some democratic, others far less so - France was the first signatory of the ‘’Contract to Save the Internet’’ initiated by Tim Berners-Lee, with a view to protecting democracy - It has become necessary to reach beyond the misleading alternative of ‘’complete self-regulation, or deregulation’’, and ‘’a segmented Internet controlled by authoritarian states’' - Therefore, E. Macron is calling for a ‘’cooperative regulation’’, in the spirit of the growing movement towards sharing commons - France, following Switzerland, will contribute to the implementation of such a ‘’cooperative regulatory’’ movement, as of 2019, on 3 main issues: 1) Protect private data (enhance protection through some regulatory mechanism), along the EU model 2) Ensure and enhance trust, stability and security in cyberspace; France supports the ‘’Paris Appeal for Trust and Security in Cyberspace’' 3) Preserve potential for creativity, invention and economic development - In mid-2019, France will invite to Paris an international ‘’scientific council'’ on AI - Conclusion, a quote from the late Kofi Annan: ‘’To cope with Internet in our lives, we need to be at least as creative as those who invented it.’’ (All the above passage were translated into English by yours truly) Link to the original as published: https://www.elysee.fr/emmanuel-macron/2018/11/13/discours-du-president-de-l… Best regards, Jean-Jacques.

EURALO Hot Topics 2019: Joanna's proposal
by Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond Feb. 19, 2019

Feb. 19, 2019

Dear colleagues, looking at our EURALO Hot Topics 2019 document, Joanna Kulesza made a proposal as follows: To add paragraphs on: 3.1. Balancing privacy and security 3.2. Freedom of expression, DNS, AI and fake news3.3. Discrimination and accessibility 3.4. Rule of law in the multistakeholder community The question is whether these are to be included in the EURALO Hot Topics, given that these might be outside the remit of ICANN (are they?). We'll be discussing this in today's EURALO monthly call. Hot Topics: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vvZoMJL2AcG2bK5vp-bxi6gr3uE8OJULdtpA3Wb… Kindest regards, Olivier

Update on ICANN PDP impact assessments
by Collin Kurre Feb. 15, 2019

Feb. 15, 2019

Good morning all, With apologies for cross-posting, I’d like to share for your consideration the latest human rights impact assessment model coming out of the Cross-Community Working Party on ICANN and Human Rights (CCWP-HR) in case you haven'y seen it. We have been working to develop new models targeting ICANN PDPs for over a year now. You might have heard of this project in the context of the Paris IGF, where progress was presented in a workshop <https://icannhumanrights.net/2018-igf-multistakeholder-hrias-lessons-from-i…> jointly organized by the CCWP-HR and NCUC. Please free to make edits to the sheet as you see fit, or post questions or comments about the project / model here. To find out more, join us during the next CCWP-HR meeting (Wednesday at 1400 UTC). Kind regards, Collin > Begin forwarded message: > > From: Collin Kurre <collin(a)article19.org> > Subject: [cc-humanrights] Trial HRIA update + next call > Date: 14 February 2019 at 19:26:30 GMT > To: CCWP-HR <cc-humanrights(a)icann.org> > > Dear colleagues, > > I’m pleased to announce that our trial Human Rights Impact Assessment on the Subsequent Procedures PDP is now ready for comments! > > Before you click the link, please note: > - The issues listed in the document are neither definitive nor comprehensive, and > - This is a draft methodology with room for improvement.
