 New ICANN Meetings Strategy Implementation
------------------------------

Last November, the Board of Directors approved the recommendations
<http://icann.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=818d573897ed5ea25ee71ebc1&id=ea958c90f6&e=388a5d800a>
of the cross-community Meetings Strategy Working Group after two years of
work. The recommendations address the changing landscape of ICANN public
meetings and recognize growing attendance and the increasing number of
sessions.

ICANN will continue to host three meetings a year, but each meeting will
have a different duration and scope. Meeting A (the first meeting of the
calendar year) will feel very much like a current ICANN public meeting (6
day duration) except for an additional public forum at the beginning of the
week. Meeting B will be shorter (4 days) and focus on community policy
development work. Meeting C will be longer (8 days) and feature the Annual
General Meeting and showcase ICANN's work. The rotational schedule among
the five regions will continue, ensuring that meetings remain accessible to
stakeholders worldwide.

The Policy Development Support team, in collaboration with the Meetings and
Global Stakeholder Engagement teams, is working to better define the
schedule of the first Meeting B scheduled to take place in Latin America in
June 2016. The goal is to facilitate both inter- and intra-community
activities with fewer scheduling conflicts.

Of course, we look forward to ongoing conversations about Meeting B and
appreciate all input during this process. This will ensure ICANN's public
meetings continue to serve as important bottom-up gatherings that advance
our multistakeholder model.

Thank You,
