Hi Farzaneh,

we can add that.
based on the google doc, we have this list and we add your suggestion

   - UDRP independent research
   - Study on AI and Domain abuse
   - Support for registrants (information/education)
   - Education on accuracy for registrants with SSAC
   - Middle East DNS study.

I assume we should ask for HRIA to be budgeted too while the GNSO policy
team should have factored that already. One question about HRIA is which
resources to be used , internal or external. It is the same question for
any PDP if it requires SME/experts and so to ask clearly for independent
outside experts or legal counselling.
can you all please, in particular who suggested above add some description,
ballpark estimation and outcome if possible. Few lines would be enough. We
are already late,

Best,

Rafik
