[NCSG-Discuss] NCSG Questions & Concerns for our Representatives on the Accountability & Transparency Review Team (ATRT2)

[Alex Gakuru]

Greetings,

My follow-up question to Maria's.

As the GAC seeks earliest possible engagement at various levels of an even
more consultative, open, transparent and accountable ICANN institution, is
the GAC equally willing and ready to be open, transparent and accountable
on its internal activities, processes and decisions?

thanks,

Alex
