Hi Renata, I have just joined this group so have missed some of the initial discussion. I note that physical ability is one of the criteria for diversity. I'm happy to provide input about the rationale for the survey by the Cross Community Committee on Accessibility as I drafted the initial questions as well as the original objectives and actions for the Taskforce that then became the Committee. However, due to the holiday season, I will be unable to participate much over the next week or so. Looking forward to contributing in 2017.

Hi Rafik
Thanks again for the quick reply.
Interesting, I was just thinking about legal aspects but, in my mind, accessibility came first. Preventing others from having access to ICANN meetings or data due to lack of awareness towards special assistance or adaptative tech could incur in liability and be addressed in accountability procedures. I dug up from the Cross Community Committee in Accessibility this survey which brings also some questions https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/53781699/Acccessibility%20r...
But religion, ethnicity, no data indeed.
Best,
Renata

Hi Renata.
I cannot respond with authority about that but I dont recall ICANN or any group asking for ethnicity and religion as data. I think they are sensitive information and may be controversial in particular for the latter. Most of information we found are via self-reporting or for selection. I wonder about the legal aspects of collecting data beyond demographics ones , including data protection etc .
Best,
Rafik

Hi Rafik
Thanks for this material. Very interesting resource indeed.
I'm just wondering here: Ethnicity, Religion, Accessibility
Did not see these in the material. I don't remember it ever being collected at ICANN registration, for example (maybe special assistance only).
I understand this is a subgroup with time and resources limited but if there are any resources about this, maybe they would be interesting to analyse too?
Thanks

Hi everyone,
please find attached this document shared by Development and Public Responsibility Department (DPRD) including several diversity data they collected. I think we can count on DPRD as resource for our subgroup.
Best,
Rafik
