Fwd: Fwd: [ICANN Community Leaders] ICANN66 - Constituency Sessions - Topic from the Board

[Stephanie Perrin]

Dear Members, we have had a great discussion on the list about the 45 minute call I had with Goran yesterday, and I am preparing a short report on how that call went.  In the meantime please see the below instructions concerning our upcoming meeting with the CEO and the Board at ICANN 66.  There are changes, and if possible I would certainly like to take them up on the proposla to have a wider ranging discussion on one topic.  The question is, which topic and how elastic can we make it (in other words, can we fit in some of the themes we discussed on the list)>  For your information, I did bring up the climate change/carbon footprint issue, and pointed out that 500,000 people marched down University avenue in Montreal last week.  We don't want them picketing ICANN while we are at ICANN 66....

Goran indicated that as far as he is concerned, determining our carbon footprint is basic accountability, expected of all corporations nowadays.  That is why he thinks we should do it.

cheers Stephanie Perrin

NCSG Chair

Subject: [ICANN Community Leaders] ICANN66 - Constituency Sessions - Topic from the Board


Dear Constituency and Stakeholder Groups Chairs,

Please reply no later than Monday 14 October 2019

The Board and I are very much looking forward to engaging with you during our 21st AGM that will take place in Montreal between 2-7 November 2019.

We wish to keep working on improving our interaction with you and, in particular, we want to address some of the requests and feedback we have received and introduce some more flexibility in the format of our valuable face-to-face meetings.

Starting in Montreal, instead of sending up to three questions to the Board, we would like to offer you the alternative option of choosing a single topic and having an open discussion with the Board on that topic.

We are also suggesting that the list of questions or topics received be shared with the entire Community using the Policy digest, in order to increase transparency and allow the groups to improve their own understanding of their peers’ point of views on different issues.

As for time allocation, we propose to allocate half of our time together to answer your questions or discuss your single topic and the other half to address the Board’s topic.

In preparation for our meetings, the Board chose the following topic to have an open discussion with you:

“Community, Board and ICANN org readiness to implement the following three critical plans that will shape ICANN’s future. : (1) Strategic Plan FY 21-25, (2) Operating & Financial Plan FY 21-25, and (3) Work Plan to improve the effectiveness of ICANN’s multistakeholder model.”

The Strategic Plan [icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_en_system_files_files_strategic-2Dplan-2D2021-2D2025-2D24jun19-2Den.pdf&d=DwMGaQ&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=1A9IIOkJia11FXDmJ1R4Jn7wGT4ExHiVuBF89mvNt_Q&m=G2nr6qllkejitMocxR4uW29Z_W5sz1jp-EdSnMjtZfo&s=E_lf_KIvrmDMSIoHktHEXMyyERpNA5Ohivkdyiw45nk&e=> has been adopted by the Board last June at ICANN 65 in Marrakech.  The two other plans will be completed and posted for public comment in December 2019.

At ICANN 64 in Kobe, the Board asked each constituency to provide three suggestions, one for the Board, one for ICANN org and one for the Community of things/aspects that should be done/improved in order to implement  these plans successfully, starting 1 July 2020, as mandated by our Bylaws.  In addition, the Board asked for one suggestion of something that could be done externally to improve trust and with our partners and alliances (eg. IETF) so that they collaborate effectively with ICANN on some of our strategic objectives (eg. DNS security).

Based on the input received in Kobe, we are compiling a list of suggested actions for the community, Board and ICANN org which we would like to share and discuss with you in Montreal.  We will send you that list in advance of our meeting in Montreal on or before 11 October 2019.

We would be very grateful if you could send to Board Operations (board-ops-team at icann.org)<mailto:board-ops-team at icann.org)>  your single topic or the  list of questions (max. 3), in order of priority, no later than Monday 14 October 2019 or sooner.

For information, we are not changing the current total time allotted per group nor the room set-up.

We look forward to hearing your thoughts on our suggestions and on how to improve our interaction further.

We thank you in advance for your time on this matter and we look forward to welcoming you in Canada!

Best regards,
Cherine Chalaby
Chair, ICANN Board of Directors
