More than 1,200 people attended in person, and more than 800 joined virtually. Read more. [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0010QiWiIcASRvau9cm…> ACTION ITEM: Sign up for Strategic Outlook Identification Sessions ICANN’s FY25 Planning Process has started, beginning with the strategic outlook program. 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. ACTION ITEM: Planning Prioritization Update The prioritization process is a step in the annual ICANN planning process, which will permit ICANN to receive input for the development of the FY25 Draft Plans. The Planning Prioritization Group comprises members of the ICANN stakeholder groups. ICANN is seeking from the chairs of the below stakeholder groups to nominate one member and one secondary-member by 7 April 2023: ASO | ALAC | GNSO/CSG | GNSO/CPH | GNSO/NCSG | ccNSO | GAC | RSSAC | SSAC The scope of activities to be prioritized are the Board-approved implementation work, such as PDP recommendations, Specific Review recommendations and the implementation of other non-policy and advice work. Please email the name of the members that you have nominated to planning(a)icann.org<mailto:planning@icann.org>, with a copy to the Policy Strategic Management team (policy-strat-mgt(a)icann.org<mailto:policy-strat-mgt@icann.org>). Moreover, ICANN has published the Planning Prioritization Framework (Version 3) on the ICANN Finance and Planning Community wiki workspace here (Planning Prioritization [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0010QiWiIcASRvau9cm…> Framework V3 [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0010QiWiIcASRvau9cm…>). The key elements of the framework have not changed; however, based on feedback received from a lessons learned session with the members of the FY24 planning prioritization process, ICANN has incorporated several recommendations into version 3.

technical webinars from OCTO
by Natalia Filina March 27, 2023

March 27, 2023

Dear EURALO members, I would like to inform you that we in At-Large have a great opportunity contacting OCTO ICANN office (https://www.icann.org/octo) and *to ask for a series of webinars on ICANN technical topics on which At-large members need the information and knowledge.*Do we have these needs in EURALO? During the EURALO days in Brussels (November 2022), we received several basic technical questions, discussed this possibility to fix this gap and have received agreement and readiness to help from ICANN staff (from Sally Costerton). I kindly ask you to express your opinion related to these issues and create together the list of such topics for disclosure - please look at the OCTO documents before https://www.icann.org/octo/publications. This information we are gathering with other RALOs (most useful topics without duplicates) and hope to set up the schedule of short series of webinars for At-Large (and maybe for the broader ICANN community). The deadline for finishing the first list of topics from all RALOs is March 31, 2023. Sincerely, Natalia Filina Secretary of EURALO https://atlarge.icann.org/alses/euralo ALAC Subcommittee on Outreach and Engagement, Co-Chair, REGIONAL OUTREACH LIAISON MENTOR AND TRAINER +7 906 722 54 61 Moscow, Russian Federation

If you missed it or want to review, visit the session page [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001FpMUhnG-5-QWI4OR…> for the available session materials and recording. The Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC) and Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) held a bilateral session to discuss future rounds of new gTLDs, DNS abuse mitigation, the Registration Data Request System, registration data accuracy, and intergovernmental organization protections. The groups also discussed the possibility of the GNSO Council responding to Issues of Importance identified in the GAC Communiqué in the future, as well as the role and limitations of GNSO Statements of Interest. Highlights In response to questions from the GAC, the GNSO Council provided updates on its work, including: · Describing some of the potential key indicators of success for the Applicant Support Program that have emerged from discussions in the GNSO Guidance Process. These include the level of awareness about the program among target populations and the ability of applicants to access pro bono services. · Noting its consideration of using a Council small team to triage recommendations from the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures (SubPro) Policy Development Process Working Group that the Board places in “pending status.” · Providing an update on its work with respect to DNS abuse and noting that it will continue to monitor negotiations on contractual amendments related to DNS abuse and take into account other relevant input to determine whether tightly scoped policy development efforts may be appropriate in the future. · Providing an update on discussions about how to encourage broad adoption of the Registration Data Request System, which the GNSO Council understands is key to the success of the pilot. · Providing an update on the currently paused Registration Data Accuracy Scoping Team. The GNSO conducted a survey among team members, which will inform instructions to the team for future work as well as the search for a new Chair when the team reconvenes. Next Steps The GAC and GNSO will continue to engage on issues of mutual interest following ICANN76. In particular, the GNSO will remain in touch with the GAC about next steps for addressing Board concerns about SubPro recommendations placed in “pending status” and any steps following the Facilitated Dialogue on Closed Generics. Looking Toward WSIS+20 This session took place on Wednesday, 15 March. If you missed it or want to review, visit the session page [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001FpMUhnG-5-QWI4OR…> for the available session materials and recording. The ICANN76 plenary session started with an introduction of the main goals of the upcoming World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) review process from Nigel Hickson. Moderator Sébastien Bachollet introduced himself and outlined the program of explaining the history and landscape of WSIS, discussing the WSIS+20 review process, and sharing stakeholder views. · Carlos Afonso discussed the original WSIS assemblies and the goals and achievements that arose from them. · Wolfgang Kleinwächter expanded on the relationship between stakeholders and the importance of multistakeholder governance. · Anriette Esterhuysen discussed the value of WSIS and the WSIS+20 review process. · Desiree Miloshevic expressed concern that the WSIS+20 review process will take place under the framework set by the United Nations General Assembly, which may not be as open as a multistakeholder approach. · Emily Taylor emphasized the successes of the multistakeholder model, as shown by the IANA stewardship transition. · Raúl Echeberría expressed concern that one possible result of WSIS+20 is that the Internet Governance Forum mandate will not be renewed, emphasizing the importance of being innovative. · Olga Cavalli said that ICANN has the foundation to become a strong voice and relevant stakeholder in Internet governance. · Jordan Carter stressed the importance of evolving the multistakeholder model to remain relevant and encourage ICANN to take the lead in Internet governance discussions. · Lynn St. Amour said that fostering collaborative information sharing efforts across the Internet community can help ICANN to stay innovative and impactful. · Barbara Wanner provided a four-step plan to help ensure that government organizations hear stakeholder opinions. · Lori Schulman suggested using the technical community to advise public policymakers. · Marita Moll reiterated the importance of empowering end users on how to be involved in governmental efforts. Throughout the plenary session, moderator Bachollet welcomed questions from an active audience. The commenters called for ICANN to participate in WSIS+20 and to consider how it can be a more effective advocate for multistakeholder Internet governance.

Community members can participate in 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 in March and April 2023. This program is a joint effort of ICANN org, community, and Board to identify and track trends that are related to ICANN. This ensures that these opportunities and challenges are incorporated into current and future planning. Every year, new trends or shifts in existing trends impacting the operating plans (five-year or annual) and/or budget are factored into the annual iteration of those plans as appropriate. Significant shifts could also result in adjustments to the strategic plan. Once complete, ICANN org will conduct a trend analysis and impact assessment. 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. Additionally, we will begin the FY25 Planning Prioritization Process in April. The Planning Prioritization Group will comprise members from the ICANN stakeholder groups as listed below. The stakeholder group leadership will be asked to nominate one primary member and one secondary member to participate in the prioritization process. Nominations will be due by the end of March by emailing planning(a)icann.org<mailto:planning@icann.org>, with a copy to the Policy Strategic Management team (policy-strat-mgt(a)icann.org<mailto:policy-strat-mgt@icann.org>).

CROPP application for EuroDIG_ CROPP support for EuroDIG
by TaC Europe March 2, 2023

March 2, 2023

Dear Yrjo, all We would be happy also to suggest the Ukrainian youth presence and also apply for CROPP with our organisation. That will bring better vision of the topic and also support multi-stakeholder opinion and multi-stakeholder community of views. As you probably know, we have organized last year, together with the European Parliament, a specific event to help the Ukrainian youth, so we would like to apply and give one CROPP seat to one of them, as they are in need and in need of expressing their views. Please do check the event I mentioned here: https://events.youthigf.com/refugees-from-ukraine<https://events.youthigf.com/refugees-from-ukraine?utm_medium=email&_hsmi=20…> With all the best, Yuliya ________________________________ De : EURO-Discuss <euro-discuss-bounces(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org> de la part de Oksana Prykhodko via EURO-Discuss <euro-discuss(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org> Envoyé : mercredi 1 mars 2023 14:35:08 À : Yrjö Länsipuro Cc : Discussion for At-Large Europe Objet : Re: [EURO-Discuss] CROPP support for EuroDIG Dear Yrjö, Thank you ver-very much!
