Hello Nathalie, dear colleagues,

Thank you for this; I hope this email finds you well.

As regarding proposal nr. 3, please do not include Susan Chalmers (NTIA 
and GAC Rep USA) on the list, as according to her, she was never asked 
or agreed, and as a matter of fact the US delegation does not support 
this proposal.

On the other hand, regarding GAC Switzerland (Jorge Cancio), I haven´t 
had the chance to directly talk to him, given the fact that he is still 
on vacation (just in case, in order to avoid any confusion) so as to 
make sure he:
a) was actually asked about this, for sure; and
b) there is full support from the Swiss Government.

Having said that, I do not mean the GAC officially supports - or not - 
any of the proposals kindly sent, until we can get together and decide 
on the topic with the respective GAC Representatives.

Thank you again.
Best regards,

Nico

      1. *ccNSO Proposal____*

     The ccNSO Council suggests a plenary session during the ICANN 81
     meeting to be held in Istanbul in November 2024, on the topic of the
     WSIS+20 Review and what ICANN (the community and the organisation)
     can do to help advertise and preserve ICANN’s multi-stakeholder
     model, and the broader multi-stakeholder internet governance
     approach, during the Review.

     ICANN is working with the community to reflect on lessons learned in
     the GDC process during 2023-2024, and developing a strategy for the
     role ICANN and its community can play during the WSIS+20 review in
     2024 and 2025. By the time ICANN81 rolls around, this strategy
     should be well developed, and it will be time to further mobilise
     the ICANN community around the role it can play in this important work.

     The main outcomes of such a session should be that:____

       * The ICANN community is well informed about the strategic
         approach to the WSIS+20 Review, and what role individual
         organisations and communities can play____
       * The ICANN community is mobilised to play the roles they can play
         as part of the Review____

     A secondary outcome would be the sharing of greater insight about
     where the WSIS+20 review is at, though this can be covered in the
     Geopolitical session.____

      2. *IPC Proposal____*

     _Working Title:_Reviewing ICANN’s Accountability Mechanisms____

     ____

     _Aim:_  To hold a general discussion across the community about the
     ICANN Accountability Mechanisms, particularly the Request for
     Reconsideration (RFR) and Independent Review Process (IRP) in order
     to elicit views on whether:____

       * these mechanisms are fit for purpose____
       * there are unintended outcomes resulting from the manner in which
         these mechanisms are set out in the Bylaws.  For example: ____
           o do the standing and grounds requirements for either
             mechanism serve to exclude legitimate access by those that
             the community intended to have access, such as SO, AC, SG
             and Cs ____
           o Are these mechanisms available to any classes of complainant
             who were not intended by the community to have access to
             them____
           o Is the EC IRP process sufficiently clear and unambiguous.____
       * there are concerns sufficient to warrant review and potential
         revision of the relevant Bylaws provisions and, if so, whether
         there is a sufficient support from the community to convene a
         CCWG to work on this.____

     ____

     _Brief Background:_____

     On a number of occasions recently, including in meetings with the
     GNSO Council, ICANN Board Members have expressed the view that the
     IRP, as presently drafted, could be used by classes of potential
     claimant who were never intended to have access to this mechanism,
     such as an unsuccessful respondent to an ICANN RFP or tender
     process.  Board Members have expressed the desire for a community
     discussion on this.____

     ____

     At the same time, the GNSO’s Intellectual Property Constituency
     recently brought a RFR against a proposal by the Board that would
     have had the effect of changing a Fundamental Bylaws without
     following the Bylaws-mandated process for doing so.  The IPC’s RFR
     was summarily dismissed as failing to demonstrate that the IPC was
     harmed by such a Board action.____

     ____

     The intent of this session would not be to publicly debate the IPC’s
     ongoing disagreement with ICANN over the RFR, which is currently in
     the Co-Operative Engagement Process.  Rather, we believe that both
     examples demonstrate that there are concerns, both on ICANN Org’s
     side and on the Community side, with these important accountability
     mechanisms which were revised as a result of the cross community
     work on Accountability in the context of the IANA Transition.  We
     believe this is an appropriate time for a discussion on whether the
     mechanisms meet the community’s expectations, or whether they would
     benefit from a more formal review and revision.____

     *3) At-Large/ ALAC Proposal____*


     _Working Title_: Shifting Paradigms: Multistakeholderism,
     Geopolitics, International Law, and New Internet Infrastructures.

     _Objective/Aims_:
     To explore the intersections of geopolitics, international law, and
     emerging internet infrastructures. Key topics include the reshaping
     of the multistakeholder model, implications for new internet
     infrastructures, and data governance. The discussion will reference
     the 2024 United States International Cyberspace & Digital Policy
     Strategy, EU's GDPR, the AI Act, and NIS2. This session is crucial
     for end users, regulators, policymakers, technologists, legal
     experts, academics, and other stakeholders in the Internet
     governance community. It emphasizes the link between infrastructure
     governance and data management from the end user perspective,
     highlighting the importance of user-centric approaches in shaping
     the future of internet infrastructures.

     _Proposed Speakers_:____

       - Vint Cerf, Internet Pioneer
       - Leon Sanchez, ICANN Board Member
       - Jorge Cancio, Deputy Head of the International Relations Team at
     the Federal Office of Communications (OFCOM); GAC Switzerland
       - Pari Esfandiari, ALAC/EURALO, Global TechnoPolitics Forum
       - Susan Chalmers, Internet Policy Specialist, US Department of
     Commerce, NTIA
       - Berna Akçalı Gür, Lecturer, CCLS Queen Mary University of
     London, Associate Research Fellow at UNU-CRIS Digital Cluster
       - John Crain, ICANN SVP & Chief Technology Officer

     _Moderator:_ Joanna Kulesza, ALAC Liaison to the GAC

     _Scoping Questions_:____

      1.   How should the multistakeholder model evolve to accommodate
         new internet infrastructures and the shift towards them in
         governance?____
      2.   What are the primary governance challenges posed by the
         development of new internet infrastructures and governance
         models?____
      3.   How do existing regulatory frameworks like GDPR, the AI Act,
         and NIS2 address the challenges and opportunities presented by
         new internet infrastructures and respective governance models?____


     _Expected Outcomes_:____


     - A comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities
     presented by new internet infrastructures and the regulatory shift
     towards them - MSM implications.
     - Insight into how existing regulatory frameworks, including the
     MSM, can adapt to these emerging technologies.
     - Enhanced dialogue among stakeholders on the future of
     multistakeholder Internet governance.____

     RrSG Proposal for ICANN81 Plenary Session: The Registrant’s Journey____

     ____

     Follow along with our hero Sophia Exemplar as she begins her
     Registrant Journey and encounters ICANN policies in the registration
     and use of her new domain name to create a fan website for the 1960s
     TV show /Thunderbirds/. Along the way, she’ll encounter choices for
     registration data submission and publication, phishing emails and
     deceptive notices, and renewal reminders. She’ll consider moving to
     a new registrar, or even giving the domain name away to a friend,
     and more. Will Sophia’s journey be a success? We’ll poll the meeting
     attendees to help her decide what to do at each important step in
     the process.____

     ____

     /This session takes attendees through important aspects of the
     domain name lifecycle, covering registration data collection
     requirements, choices around data masking or publication, contacts
     sent to the domain owner, and processes including registrar transfer
     and change of ownership data. Attendees will gain a greater
     understanding of the industry landscape and domain owner experience.
