but a global governance regime that avoids centralized points of control and that protects the autonomy and choice of all the separate networks that together comprise the internet.

<p><span style="font-size:9.5pt"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9.5pt">ICANN’s decentralization “should demonstrate that a bottom-up, multi-stakeholder consensus process can produce outcomes that are good for the internet” (IANA) of course as an independent organization is
involved in the process. IGMENA hangout will ask these questions How can ICANN support and enhance the multistakeholder model ? Maintain the security, stability and resiliency of the Internet DNS ? Meet the needs and expectations of the global customers and
partners of the IANA services ? What is the « decentralized » Internet model of Internet governance that can be able to maintain the openness of the Internet ? </span></p>

<p style="margin-top:4.5pt"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#222222">Yesterday the NCUC hosted a very successful thematic workshop at the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) which brought into the public arena
discussions around what hinders new voices from participating in Internet governance debates, particularly in the global south. Contributing to the rich discussion were panelists from across the ICANN community, including three NCUC members, who all greatly
appreciated the opportunity to participate and to be present with us. </span></p>
