Fwd: [gnso-osc] GNSO Constituency Survey - Final Report

[Robin Gross]

This just in.  Thanks the the NCUC members who participated in the  
survey.  (NCUC had the most number of people participate of any  
constituency).

But I have to say, this survey seemed largely designed to produce the  
result that its funders wanted: ICANN expanding its role into new  
functions and micro-management of the GNSO.

> As you will recall, we launched a GNSO Constituency Survey at the

> in the Board’s Report on GNSO Improvements:
>
> (1)   Developing a standardized "Toolkit" of services;
>
> (2)   Creating a centralized membership registry or database;
>
> (3)   Knowledge/skill training for leaders and members; and
>
> (4)   Recruiting/outreach programs associated with constituency  
> growth and expansion.
>
> Attached, as promised, is a comprehensive final report of the  
> survey’s findings which covers who, what, when, why, and how as  
> well as summarizing each question and an initial set of  
> observations/conclusions that can be drawn from participant responses.

> Our original intention was to provide this input to the Operations

> We will post the report on the GNSO Improvements Information Web

> OSC’s Wiki page ( https://st.icann.org/icann-osc/index.cgi?
