Our goal at this meeting is to inform the Community about proposed changes being made, within ICANN, based upon the recommendations made by the Strategy Panel on the Public Responsibility Framework, which was finalized and published earlier this month. Please review the final Panel on the Framework's Report at: https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/prf-report-15may14-en.pdf. The Panel's report outlined how ICANN can better address the global public interest through an approach that reviews ICANN's current activities, and identifying opportunities and key targets that should be addressed to strengthen ICANN's commitment. In its conclusion, the Report listed top line recommendations for ICANN's public responsibility framework moving forward. Recommendations included: the streamlining of current ICANN public responsibility activities under a formal Development and Public Responsibility Department (DPRD); strengthening ICANN Regional Engagement Strategies; commissioning research to enhance understanding of links between Internet Governance and Development; and exploring the establishment of an external foundation to operate in the philanthropic space. Building on the recommendations from the Panel's report, ICANN is exploring the potential of creating a Development and Public Responsibility Department (DPRD), which will aim to implement the Panel's recommendations and formalize ICANN's public responsibility framework. If established, this department will aim to: 1. Streamline and formalize existing, and future, public responsibility activities, which will eliminate the need to grow dramatically in FY15, as it focuses primarily on strategy enhancement and efficiency. This could include: ensuring that the public interest is cohesively and cross-cuttingly served throughout the organization's activities and operations; commissioning research how ICANN can best act with other entities and members in the Internet ecosystem; enhancing the understanding of the links between Internet, Internet governance, development, and policymaking, particularly in developing and emerging countries and regions; strengthening Regional Engagement Strategies so they can continue to identify, assess, and meet local needs; and ensuring that all ICANN departments incorporate public responsibility as a core component of their work. 2. Organize its development and public responsibility efforts into four following strategic priority areas, as recommended by the Panel Report: · Education · Localization and Language Services · Next Generation Projects · Participation in Global Cooperation and Development This organizational structure will further strengthen ICANN's commitment to the global public interest. Projects within each area could be carried out by ICANN independently, in collaboration with International and Intergovernmental Organizations, in partnership with foundations, or with regional and local capacity building and training organizations. As mentioned above, our goal at this meeting is to socialize the Community with the idea of creating the DPRD. This goal can be effected by discussing the proposed DPRD with the attending Community and various ICANN departments, and implementing recommended changes for best practices. To do so, we have scheduled the following two sessions for the ICANN 50 Meeting: 1. "NextGen@ICANN with University of Greenwich<http://london50.icann.org/en/schedule/mon-nextgen-uog>" (Monday, June 23rd from 15:15 to 16:45 BST in Thames) - Building on the success at ICANN49, this session will review the work by Post Graduate students at the University of Greenwich on the potential economic social and political costs of a fragmentation of the DNS, generating an interesting dialogue including potential areas for further work.. 3. "Exploring ICANN's Development and Public Responsibility Programs<http://london50.icann.org/en/schedule/wed-development-prf>" (Wednesday, 25th June from 13:00 to 14:30 BST in the Windsor Suite) - This session will incorporate, and elaborate upon, the DPRD information mentioned above, and provide a discussion session for the Community to participate, give feedback, and recommend changes for the department proposition and strategy. Nii Quaynor, who served on the Strategy Panel on the Public Responsibility Framework, will attend this session, and I will be moderating. In addition, I am hoping to meet with you while in London to gather your input and expertise in this area. I anticipate that this upcoming meeting will help our team, and ICANN, further demonstrate its commitment to international participation, and help to develop a streamlined approach to fulfilling ICANN's public responsibility. Pursuant to this end, and as an extension of Fadi's recent call covering plans for the DPRD, I would like to arrange individual follow-up calls with each of you to discuss these plans further. Please respond under separate cover to Darris Saylors<mailto:darris.saylors@icann.org> as soon as possible with your preferred availability for a one-on-one call prior to ICANN 50. I look forward to seeing you in London, Best, Nora ________________________________ El presente correo y cualquier posible archivo adjunto está dirigido únicamente al destinatario del mensaje y contiene información que puede ser confidencial.
