Many technological solutions emerged to deal with public problems. This reveals that the technology is up to the challenge of supporting a large remote workforce, which could result in everyone feeling more connected to each other than before.” Rolla Hassan Senior Manager of Internet Policy Analysis, NTRA Egypt Egypt - 8 April 2020 [https://files.constantcontact.com/d2ded047401/0bf7345b-ba2b-4bdf-8bc2-a98aa…] “Hoster.by is taking all possible measures to ensure the safety of its employees and business continuity.

At the same time I believe we are standing at the pedestal of great things to come and how we conduct our business. Since the lockdown, our staff has been able to deal with the customer queries with great ease and enthusiasm, and to that we say thumbs up.” Lucky Masilela, CEO of ZACR/RA South Africa - 14 April 2020 [https://files.constantcontact.com/d2ded047401/eaca2ffa-38b9-4290-bf0c-10471…] “From a technical standpoint, we have not experienced any problems due to COVID-19 at Registro .it despite of the sharp increase in Internet traffic. We have specifically developed a DNS organization for the ccTLD .it, based on an anycast architecture to ensure the maximum resilience of our services. This anycast architecture exploits both a third-party service and a proprietary infrastructure of sixteen nodes, carefully positioned around the world to intercept the Internet traffic in order to guarantee the responsiveness and the reliability of ccTLD.it DNS. The impact of COVID-19 on the society and economy reflected also on domain name registrations. At the end of March, we received more than one thousand registrations related to COVID-19, and we are working closely with the public authorities to prevent abuses associated with these domain names.” Marco Conti, Registro .it Italy - 8 April 2020 [https://files.constantcontact.com/d2ded047401/9f686495-105f-4aa3-b5c7-e96e6…] [https://files.constantcontact.com/d2ded047401/1caa884c-d023-4af7-ab39-96b52…] The DNSSEC Implementation Relaunch in Finland By Juhani Juselius, Chief Specialist, Traficom For almost two decades, .FI has been taken care of by a relatively small but highly motivated team at the Finnish Transport and Communications Agency Traficom, a team that believes in secure and up-to-date technology. As part of that vision, .FI-root was signed in 2010 and the registration system was updated in 2011 in order to provide Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC) for the second level. From the very beginning, it was obvious to us that we did not want to charge any extra fees for this important add-on service. During the following years, we raised awareness via several activities such as presentations, media interviews, targeted events, user trainings, meetings with registrars, and master's theses supervision. I am quite sure that our message reached its target, and relevant people learned about DNSSEC. However, not much happened after all, despite all of our efforts in raising awareness. At the end of 2018, I was not aware of any .FI registrar offering DNSSEC for their customers: Only 1 percent of domains were signed, and none of the three big ISPs were validating Internet traffic in Finland. Those were very depressing numbers, especially when compared to the success of DNSSEC in the other Nordic countries. At the beginning of 2019, we asked our colleagues at the National Cyber Security Center for an opportunity to attend their meeting with the Finnish ISPs and talk about DNSSEC. In that meeting, we asked a question: "In your opinion, what should we do in order to boost DNSSEC usage in Finland?" They gave us the clearest answer so far: "We see DNSSEC as an important addition to security, but we don't want to do it alone. If it breaks something, our customers will switch to a non-DNSSEC supporting operator. We will implement DNSSEC if we don't need to do it alone." That was it! So simple. The idea of DNSSEC (re)Launch Day was born. There were two main components in our DNSSEC Launch Day campaign. The first one was a campaign website with a public list of registrars and ISPs committed to implementing DNSSEC by the date of Launch Day. This was important to convince participants that they were not alone in implementing DNSSEC. The second component was to get publicity. First, there were some articles in professional online media, but the real game-changer was a one and half page article in the main national newspaper, the Helsingin Sanomat: “DNSSEC and its low adoption rate in Finland.<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001TNgwtZ4HeFNu_BAj1-rFshRNI1rYrI4p6GG8G8acZ0JJ…>” The article was straightforward, and it made people wake up. At the end of 2019, there were at least 250 registrars offering DNSSEC to their customers, 2 percent of domains were signed (low, but doubled in number), and the validation rate exceeded 90 percent, one of the highest in the world. In addition, our DNSSEC training session in cooperation with ICANN became very popular after the campaign, as people got interested in DNSSEC implementation more than ever before.

Our good partner in Poland, The University of Lodz (UoL), adapted quickly to the new situation by opening their virtual doors for ICANN. Through this initiative, which we called the “ICANN Month”, we delivered online lectures to the students of Social Sciences Doctoral School at UoL for three consecutive weeks in April 2020. Each lecture attracted 25 to 50 students. ICANN Month was comprised of three lectures by ICANN org members. Patrick Jones opened the series by presenting on “Managing Identifiers and Domain Name System Privacy in an Insecure World”. He was followed by Adam Peake, who presented on ICANN and the Internet, touching upon the fundamental importance of the DNS and global multistakeholder policy. Lastly, Gabriella Schittek delivered a talk on ICANN, new generic top-level domains, and its rights protection mechanisms. The students were also invited to participate in ICANN via programs such as NextGen and Fellowship, and introduced to the ICANN Learn platform. We would like to extend our gratitude to the University of Lodz, and Joanna Kulesza from At-Large leadership for the openness and flexibility that made the ICANN Month possible.

As the world began facing one of the toughest challenges in modern history, all planned activities came to a halt. Face-to-face meetings and community gatherings are now no longer viable in the foreseeable future. As a result, we are looking at different ways to continue our work. When I was training for long distance running fifteen years ago, my trainer had advised this: If I had to slow down, it would be a good opportunity to look around and see where I am, and check how others are doing. Now that we all have to slow down, there is time to look around, and at our community. For us at ICANN, we will continue engaging with you, and raising awareness about ICANN’s work via the remote tools available to us. Although many regional events have been postponed, the preparations continue for the ones later on in the year. Organizers are still discussing agendas and potential speakers. Currently, it seems things will get busy as of September. But until then, we can look at what work we have to do now, prioritize the regional needs in light of the new situation, and continue to work together. In my new role, I look forward to working with you, our stakeholders across Eastern Europe and Central Asia! Please do not hesitate to contact me at mikhail.anisimov(a)icann.org<mailto:mikhail.anisimov@icann.org> for any questions or suggestions. I am here to support you.

On 18 February 2020, the MEAC-SWG published the draft Middle East and Adjoining Countries (MEAC) Regional Plan for Fiscal Years 2021-2025 for Public Comment<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001TNgwtZ4HeFNu_BAj1-rFshRNI1rYrI4p6GG8G8acZ0JJ…>, which remained open until 3 April 2020. Complementing these efforts to receive community feedback on the regional plan, a webinar<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001TNgwtZ4HeFNu_BAj1-rFshRNI1rYrI4p6GG8G8acZ0JJ…> was held on 18 March 2020, attended by 24 community members. The feedback received during this webinar and public comments were summarized and published in this staff report<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001TNgwtZ4HeFNu_BAj1-rFshRNI1rYrI4p6GG8G8acZ0JJ…> on 17 April 2020. Next steps involve the incorporation of community feedback into the work towards finalizing the regional plan in May 2020. Then the MEAC-SWG will work on the year 1 action plan, which will be released in June 2020, in time to go into effect on 1 July 2020. This timeline might be affected due to the COVID-19, but we will keep the community updated in the event of any changes. Interested in our work?

Following the Public Comment period, we will consolidate the comments, incorporate them into an updated strategy document, and formally launch the final document on ICANN Africa Regional Plan for Fiscal Years 2021–2025 by the end of June 2020. This is the first time our regional plan is being developed fully remotely. We would like to thank our committed and versatile community for this success. ICANN67 Readout for Africa Attracts Over 50 Participants The ICANN67 Readout Webinar for Africa took place on 2 April, opening the ICANN67 Virtual Public Meeting experiences of African community members to discussion. Some participants shared challenges to participating in the virtual meeting, mainly those caused by the time zone difference. Participants lauded ICANN org for the quick work in transforming ICANN67 into a virtual meeting, and the inclusion of French interpretation, which provided inclusivity for many community members from Africa. In addition to community feedback, several Supporting Organization and Advisory Committee leaders gave updates and shared highlights from the meeting during the webinar. There was an encouraging turnout with 59 participants, and we hope to see many more of our community members attend our upcoming webinars.

When ICANN67 became a virtual meeting, the org successfully adapted the trend identification work of the Strategic Outlook Program<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001TNgwtZ4HeFNu_BAj1-rFshRNI1rYrI4p6GG8G8acZ0JJ…> to take place virtually. By combining online tools such as Zoom and Google Drive, we were able to hold a series of virtual brainstorming sessions after ICANN67 with several community stakeholder groups across the globe to help identify new trends, opportunities, and risks. Two public sessions were held, as well as sessions with the Governmental Advisory Committee, Security and Stability Advisory Committee, Generic Names Supporting Organization Council, and the Intellectual Property Constituency. The findings will provide critical update to help inform ICANN’s strategy in an ever-changing environment. Approximately 80 community members participated.

This Consensus Playbook aims to provide community volunteers with practical tools and best practices for building consensus, bridging differences, and breaking deadlocks in ICANN processes. It neither seeks to change the definition of consensus or the methods of decision-making of any community group, nor create any new requirements. Originating from the GNSO Policy Development Process 3.0 (PDP 3.0)<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001TNgwtZ4HeFNu_BAj1-rFshRNI1rYrI4p6GG8G8acZ0JJ…> initiative and a subsequent Additional Budget Request, the Consensus Playbook was developed by the Consensus Building Institute (CBI), an external vendor contracted by ICANN org, with the requirement of broad applicability across the community beyond just GNSO PDP working groups. As part of the development process, CBI interviewed 14 community leaders across ICANN Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees, who shared their extensive consensus-building experience in leading and participating in working and community groups.
