I will present in our LACRALO meeting next July 25, the proposed topics to define diversity to get their feedback then will share with you . Nice week to all Vanda Scartezini POLO Consultores Associados vanda@scartezini.org<mailto:vanda@scartezini.org> mobile: + 55 11 98181-1464 From: ws2-ccg <ws2-ccg-bounces@icann.org> On Behalf Of Melissa Peters Allgood Sent: Tuesday, July 19, 2022 11:39 AM To: ws2-ccg@icann.org Subject: [ws2-ccg] 12 July Action Item Updates and Proposed 4 August Agenda Thank you all for your participation in the 12 July CCG call. The session recording can be found here: https://icann.zoom.us/rec/play/t_8jfH8v6aClDd_4fgvljIsF_nrumuoOFRnbkp0MZSQfx... Contributions made on the call and on the list have demonstrated that CCG participants agree that the 7 elements of diversity detailed in the WS2 Final Report encapsulate a shared foundational understanding of diversity. While subsequent conversations are likely necessary to ensure all elements are clear, sufficiently meaningful, and can be implemented in each community as they stand, the best use of group time and consultant efforts might be found focusing on how individual groups navigate implementation of elements in various situations. ACTION ITEMS CCG members on the call agreed that the 7 elements of diversity detailed in the WS2 Final Report are a shared foundation of diversity within the ICANN community. Individual community groups are empowered to expand upon these areas of common understanding as best fits the needs of their respective communities. Those on the call further agreed that the ICANN community seeks to ensure there are no impediments to participation within the ICANN community based on the diversity elements of gender, age, and disability. Here you will find the relevant proposed language: The ICANN community strives to ensure that there are no impediments or discrimination towards existing or potential community members based on the diversity elements of gender, age, and disability. While discussing how to best utilize the DEI consulting team, community members requested more information. Attached you will find biographies and other information about Advisory83. NEXT STEPS In preparation for our next call, 4 August at 20:00 UTC, we ask you are prepared to share feedback on the following: * The proposed no impediment language regarding age, gender, and disability detailed above. * Any questions or clarification regarding the remaining 4 elements of diversity (geographic/regional representation, language, diverse skills, and SG/C) as a foundation of common understanding, noting that the SG/C element may not be applicable across the entire community. These elements are discussed in more detail in WS2 Annex 1: https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/ccwg-acct-ws2-annex-1-diversity-... Some on the 12 July call discussed how elements of diversity may have varying levels of importance in different contexts, situations, and groups and we hope to move the CCG into this application work. Accordingly, we propose the 4 August call focus on ensuring that each of the 7 elements are a sufficient basis of common understanding for individual groups to apply within their respective communities and, time allowing, begin discussion around application of diversity elements to community work. We anticipate this will inform where the consulting team can best support your efforts. PROPOSED AGENDA - 4 AUGUST 1. Welcome 2. Discussion regarding proposed language for approaching age, gender, and disability. 3. Discussion regarding clarification and questions about the other four elements - geographic/regional representation, language, diverse skills, and SG/C - as a shared foundation to diversity within ICANN. 4. Org team to share a tool mapping diversity requirements in individual group operating procedure documents. We welcome your feedback on this approach and, as always, please let us know if we can assist in any other way. All the best, Melissa (on behalf of the org CCG support team)
