Follow-up Q for Anne
by Kristy Buckley Feb. 1, 2024

Feb. 1, 2024

Dear Anne, There was a section in the Handbook where you had suggested we add some examples of eligible entities that might wear multiple hats and that the Handbook should be clear that the applicant could submit documentation pertaining to multiple entity types. The updated language is below along with the proposed examples. As this was your suggestion, the IRT advised that we reach out to confirm this updated text adequately addresses your comment. The text is pasted below or you can go directly to Section 5.5 via this link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1w3_kYNYcEjXin5D1O9x4hxcpYJr7JqlY/edit#h… 5.5 Eligible Entities Note that the categories for eligible entities identified below are not mutually exclusive. Should the ASP applicant fit into multiple eligible categories, the applicant is encouraged to submit required documentation for all applicable eligibility categories, so they may be evaluated accordingly. Note however, ASP applicants are only required to meet the eligibility criteria and indicators for one of the eligible entity categories listed to qualify under this criteria category (Eligible Entities). Submitting documentation for multiple entity types does not negatively impact the applicant’s eligibility (i.e., if an applicant submits documentation for two entity categories and qualifies for one but does not qualify for another, the applicant still passes the “Eligible Entity” evaluation category). See additional examples below. Applicant Example 1: if the applicant is a nonprofit/charitable organization and an Indigenous/Tribal Peoples organization, it may submit documentation to demonstrate eligibility for either entity or for both entities. The applicant only needs to meet the criteria and indicators for one entity type to pass the “Eligible Entity” evaluation category. Applicant Example 2: if the applicant is a small business social enterprise and is principally located in a developing economy, it may submit documentation to demonstrate eligibility for either entity or for both entities. The applicant only needs to meet the criteria and indicators for one entity type to pass the “Eligible Entity” evaluation category. Kind regards, Kristy

Kristy et al, Please accept my apologies for the ASP meeting on Wednesday. Unfortunately I have a late-breaking unavoidable conflict only 30 minutes into the Wednesday meeting. Will try to chime in for the first 30 minutes. Should be in the clear for Thursday's IRT meeting however.

Kristy and Samantha, It appears the Doodle poll lists January 30 1400 UTC as a possible meeting time I have that on the calendar as a full IRT meeting time and the IRT Wiki still shows that meeting time as 1400 UTC. I also have another calendar invitation for the IRT January 30 at 20:00 UTC. Can you please clarify? (I may need to change my Doodle poll response for ASP.)

A note re the idea mentioned by Kristy of an "OR" clause to provide alternative proof re geography in an indigenous less-developed area is that the Constitution of Brazil defines "indigenous land" as follows: The text in force gives a constitutional category or status to the concept of indigenous lands [pib.socioambiental.org] which is defined as follows in paragraph 2 of Article 231: Lands traditionally occupied by the Indians are those that they have inhabited permanently, used for their productive activity, their welfare and necessary for their cultural and physical reproduction, according to their uses, customs and traditions."

In yesterday's call, I mentioned "beef cattle" as a possible use case in this category. By way of example, please consider the Native American Beef program. The Program itself might be eligible under 5.5.3 in the Handbook if it meets other requirements. However, privately-owned ranching operations on tribal lands who are micro or small businesses and who produce that beef would not be eligible under 5.5.5 as currently drafted. Some of these ranchers have plans to expand their sales beyond US borders. This is not an "edge case" and ICANN has the opportunity to take action to assist indigenous small business if we amend 5.5.5 accordingly. The advantages of a gTLD include secure transactions and creation of a distinct marketing presence. Without the ability to qualify for ASP training, Application Counseling, and fee reductions, the new gTLD program would be clearly out of reach for these small businesses. (Nothing guarantees that including them will put them within reach of operating a new gTLD but by amending 5.5.5 to include principal place of business on indigenous tribal lands (with the indigenous residents as officers requirement), we eliminate one more barrier to success. https://unsceb.org/sites/default/files/2021-01/CEB-Call-to-Action-Indigenou… [unsceb.org] Given our increasingly global economy, I am sure there are potential examples in other nations outside the U.S. Thank you, Anne Anne Aikman-Scalese GNSO Councilor NomCom Non-Voting 2022-2024 anneicanngnso(a)gmail.com On Wed, Jan 17, 2024 at 8:26 PM Anne ICANN <anneicanngnso(a)gmail.com> wrote: Hi Kristy and all ASP subteam members, Regarding the discussion held today on Section 5.5.5 of the ASP Handbook as to "Micro or Small business from a Less-developed Economy", I propose we add an objective category to the definition of lesser developed economies, i.e. "principal place of business located on indigenous tribal lands" accompanied by the other requirements as to location of officers and ownership and control. In support of this addition, I attach the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, with special reference to Articles 20 and 32, as well as Article 39 which refers to " access to financial and technical assistance... through international cooperation". In this regard, I believe that leaving out the ability for micro or small businesses principally located on tribal lands under this basis for qualification for the ASP Program would not be consistent with ICANN's Human Rights Core Value. The Less-developed Economy basis for micro or small business is a separate basis from 5.5.4 social impact or public benefit and is separate from 5.5.3 tribal people's organization with a demonstrated Consent Form. We should be acknowledging, in accordance with the attachment, that indigenous tribal economies all over the world are less-developed. The state of those economies is relevant to the goals of the ASP Program. Again, i have no personal interest in relation to this proposal, just past experience with representation of indigenous peoples prior to retiring.

In preparation for our upcoming ASP-IRT meetings this week, please find the draft ASP Handbook attached. It will also be posted on the wiki. As you review the Handbook, you will note that the criteria, indicators, and flowcharts we reviewed in December are embedded throughout. Based upon your collective feedback, ICANN org has made some suggested edits to the criteria and indicators which are noted in suggestion mode. Throughout the handbook, you will also note questions or comments to the IRT which we hope to bring to our discussions later this week. For our first session this week, we will plan to start with the proposed changes to the criteria and indicators section and then move on to other parts of the handbook with a focus on the questions and comments to the IRT so we have a chance to get quick feedback on those. We realize this is a longer document and we will be sure to cover it all as a group during our meetings, noting that we may need to schedule additional meetings to do so. We hope to keep our meetings focused on the section(s) at hand so we can get through it as efficiently as possible.

DRAFT ASP Handbook for ASP-IRT
by Kristy Buckley Jan. 18, 2024

Jan. 18, 2024

Greetings ASP-IRT colleagues, Wishing you all a healthy start to 2024 and we look forward to continuing to work together this year. In preparation for our upcoming ASP-IRT meetings this week, please find the draft ASP Handbook attached. It will also be posted on the wiki. As you review the Handbook, you will note that the criteria, indicators, and flowcharts we reviewed in December are embedded throughout. Based upon your collective feedback, ICANN org has made some suggested edits to the criteria and indicators which are noted in suggestion mode. Throughout the handbook, you will also note questions or comments to the IRT which we hope to bring to our discussions later this week. For our first session this week, we will plan to start with the proposed changes to the criteria and indicators section and then move on to other parts of the handbook with a focus on the questions and comments to the IRT so we have a chance to get quick feedback on those. We realize this is a longer document and we will be sure to cover it all as a group during our meetings, noting that we may need to schedule additional meetings to do so. We hope to keep our meetings focused on the section(s) at hand so we can get through it as efficiently as possible. Many thanks in advance for your time and we look forward to meeting with you all soon. Kind regards, Kristy Buckley, on behalf of the ASP Project Team

Re: [Subpro-irt-asp] DRAFT ASP Handbook for ASP-IRT
by Tijani Jan. 17, 2024

Jan. 17, 2024

Thank you Kristy, I have a few comments on your edit proposals for the handbook: Page 20: You propose to take the average between US$ 3m and 15m as required total assets (the same for annual sales). We should be careful not to raise this to a high amount that will prevent the real applicants in need of support to be eligible. Page 21: You say that it’s not clear how to find objective indicators to evaluate the lake of well-developed DNS industry or economy (GAC definition of “under-served”). Isn’t the number of registries/registrars/resellers/…. In the considered country/region/territory enough to demonstrate it? Page 21: As for the awareness of ICANN and its role (GAC definition of “under-served”), the participation of the citizens of the considered country in ICANN (and its community) activities, face to face or online, may be an element of evaluation of this awareness Page 21: Principal place of business for applicants from less developed economies: in my opinion, all officers should be from and live in the place of business and not the largest number of them only.
