Dear ICANN Community Group Chairs,
Please reply no later than Monday, 5 October 2020.
While 2020 has proven challenging and likely very different from what we were all expecting when we last saw each other almost a year ago in Montréal, the Board and I keep being impressed and grateful for your continued dedication to ICANN’s mission.
The Board still values its dialogue with your groups and is very much looking forward to engaging with you during our 22nd and first ever virtual Annual General Meeting that will take place between 13-22 October 2020. As you keep working on the format for ICANN69, we would like to start preparing for community dialogue with the Board.
As per what we did in Montréal and virtually for ICANN67, instead of sending up to three questions to the Board, we would like to offer you the alternative option of choosing a single topic and having an open discussion with the Board on that topic. We will also publish the list of questions or topics received using this digest as a successful tool for improving transparency and allowing other groups to deepen their own understanding of their peers’ point of view on different issues.
As for time allocation, per what we did previously, we propose to allocate half of our time together to answer your questions or discuss your single topic and the other half to address the Board’s topic. In preparation for our meetings, the Board has chosen the following topic to have an open discussion with you:
- Enhancing the effectiveness of the multistakeholder model - key issues and opportunities for acceleration. In your preparation, you may want to consider the results of the most recent public consultation and the work that has progressed with dependencies to enhancing the effectiveness of the multistakeholder model, such as the Accountability and Transparency Review Team (ATRT3) Final Report and work on prioritization and budgeting).
We would be very grateful if you could send to Board Operations, board-ops-team@icann.org <#m_9019002038758899510_>, your single topic or list of questions, in order of priority, no later than Monday, 5 October 2020 or sooner.
For your information, we are not changing the current total time allotted per group. We look forward to hearing your thoughts, questions or topics of interest and to exchange with you constructively and virtually.
Best regards,
Maarten Botterman ICANN Board Chair THIS WEEK: ICANN69 Prep Week

As ICANN org President and CEO Göran Marby announced in his May 2020 blog <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001dU4xDp8u5KDJkhAjoqxYXav3CzrH4msd-GDv6sqNs-tKS...>, the Information Transparency Initiative (ITI) team is releasing new content to https://preview.icann.org <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001dU4xDp8u5KDJkhAjoqxYXav3CzrH4msd-GDv6sqNs-tKS...>, and content on https://icann.org <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001dU4xDp8u5KDJkhAjoqxYXav3CzrH4msd-GDv6sqNs-tKS...> has been improved with ITI’s enhanced search features.

The ICANN Board is seeking community feedback to assess the effectiveness of our virtual Public Meetings, the improvements that the org should make to its support for the community’s work at meetings, and any other aspects that should be integrated into our in-person meeting strategy going forward.
ICANN org is sending a survey to our Supporting Organization (SO) and Advisory Committee (AC) chairs to spark a discussion within each group, as this discussion belongs to the community. The chairs will then coordinate and consolidate their respective group’s feedback. The Board will also host a session at ICANN69 to continue the conversation with the community about our meeting strategy. The survey will serve as a guidepost for those discussions.
