Dear Dalila Thank you for your reply, it is very enlightning and goes to the heart of something many folks who live in underserved regions experience. There is no automatic process for ensuring regional balance which can be free of flaws. Indeed something like a committee or an office of diversity would be much more suited to ascertain whether there really are checks and balances to have an equitable distribution of participation between rural and urban areas, rich and poor countries etc. That being said, I think also we've uncovered another fundamental difference between IOD and Ombusman: IOD can take a proactive role towards diversity, while Ombudsman takes a reactive role. This is all important to consider on our further discussions. I'd suppport the establishment of an IOD in ICANN.

Dear Renata,
Concerning your first question, the proposition is based on the AFNIC survey. For instance, this survey is the first analysis and should be completed to bring more details on the counting.
For the second question, we haven’t yet any data on this point.
To complete theses data, an important and long term work should be initiated. That is why we have proposed the creation of the Diversity Office with one of the missions will be the collection of reliable data.
Best,
Dalila

Hi
Thank you so much for sharing this material. I'm very interested and surprised by some of the points presented. Please allow some questions/observations.
* While the importance of regional diversity in a country by country analysis was presented, was there a suggestion of a process for this?
I'm thinking counting population, territory or any other variables?
For instance underpopulated areas having weight as well as urban?
* 80% of leadership is native speaker of Eng. Do we have how to predict where the non-native leadership comes from? Groups w translation or not?
Pls. See these just as thoughts if no answer and once more, great material.
