The aim of this survey is to collect opinions from individuals in the ICANN community on ICANN's accountability and transparency, and to help the ATRT3 Review
Team to identify areas which require improvement and could benefit from a recommendation.
The Review Team has published a separate
survey to collect opinions from groups in the ICANN community. Following the close of both surveys on
13 September 2019 at 23:59 UTC, the ATRT3 Review Team will evaluate responses as input to its draft final report.
The survey questions are available in PDF format
here (for reference purposes only).
Background
The Accountability and Transparency Review is mandated by ICANN's Bylaws (Article
4, Section 4.6) to review "ICANN's execution of its commitment to maintain and improve robust mechanisms for public input, accountability, and transparency so as to ensure that the outcomes of its decision-making
reflect the public interest and are accountable to the Internet community."

About ICANN
ICANN's mission is to help ensure a stable, secure and unified global Internet. To reach another person on the Internet, you need to type an address – a
name or a number – into your computer or other device. That address must be unique so computers know where to find each other. ICANN helps coordinate and support these unique identifiers across the world. ICANN was formed in 1998 as a not-for-profit public-benefit
corporation with a community of participants from all over the world.
