Evolving ICANN multi-stakeholder model is so important for the future of ICANN. Nadira Alaraj <nadira.araj@gmail.com<mailto:nadira.araj@gmail.com>> a écrit : Thank you for your contributions Manal in spite of your busy schedule. Happy that you proposed “Evolving ICANN’s Multistakeholder Model” because if no one proposed it I would have done so. 😉 It is well noted and hoping it will get supported. Best wishes Nadira On Mon, Aug 26, 2019, 01:50 Manal Ismail <manal@tra.gov.eg<mailto:manal@tra.gov.eg>> wrote: Dear Nadira, Tijani and All .. Apologies for my weak participation on this mailing list, due to work load .. I still follow the discussions though a bit delayed .. Following your emails I would like to propose “Evolving ICANN’s Multistakeholder Model” as a topic for ICANN66 ME Space .. It’s not a policy topic but a topic that has to do with the existing model and current process and aligns with ICANN Strategic Plan 2021-2025<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/strategic-plan-2021-2025-24jun19...> – Strategic Objective #2 on Governance, aiming at improving the effectiveness of ICANN’s multistakeholder model of governance .. Community discussions identified an initial list of 21 issues<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/draft-evolving-multistakeholder-...> that are preventing ICANN’s multistakeholder model from functioning more effectively and efficiently .. The 21 issues were then merged and consolidated to a final list of 11 issues<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/evolving-multistakeholder-model-...>, namely: 1. Prioritization of Work 2. Precision in scoping the work 3. Costs 4. Representativeness + Inclusiveness 5. Consensus 6. Terms 7. Recruitment + Demographics 8. Complexity 9. Efficient Use of Resources 10. Culture + Trust + Silos 11. Roles and Responsibilities + Holistic View of ICANN Worth noting that, here will be a community discussion on this topic on the Thursday of the Montreal week, per the announced Block Schedule<https://meetings.icann.org/sites/default/files/icann66_block_schedule_v1.3_1...>, and I believe it would be a good opportunity if the ME space compiles input on few issues of interest to our region and present it during the session (similar to the excellent intervention on Universal Acceptance in Marrakech, thanks to everyone who was involved) .. You may find additional information on this page<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance-plan-improve-multistakehold...> .. @Baher @Fahd, should this be agreed, appreciate if you can check the exact version of the document that will be discussed in Montreal ..

You don't have to be travelling to ICANN 66 in order to propose a topic. The ME statement for ICANN Kobe was a success in spite many of the drafting team were able to attend the meeting.
