Hello everyone,

I would like to share ICANN’s response (attached) to the ITU Council Working Group on WSIS and SDGs’ call for inputs on the WSIS+20 review.  The deadline for contributions is Friday, 31 January. The goal of the CWG is to gather insights from all stakeholders on the various elements of the WSIS+20 process as the ITU prepares its WSIS+20 report on its contribution on the implementation of the WSIS outcomes and its role in achieving the SDGs.

As reminder, here are ICANN’s recent submissions to CSTD and UNCTAD:

• ICANN org Submission for UN CSTD Twenty years in the implementation of outcomes of the World Summit of the Information Society (WSIS) (15 November 2024)
• ICANN org Submission for the 2024 Annual Report to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) (31October 2024)

Best regards,

Elizabeth
