> After two years of extensive, cross-community work, I'm pleased to report that the ICANN Board approved a new ICANN Meetings Strategy for implementation in 2016 <https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2014-11-17-en>, as well as proposed meeting dates and geographic rotation through 2020 <http://meetings.icann.org/calendar>.
> This new vision for ICANN Meetings is firmly rooted in the Meeting Strategy Working Group Recommendations <https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/recommendations-25feb14-en.pdf> [PDF, 527 KB] first posted for public comment <https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2014-02-25-en> in February 2014.
> While ICANN Meetings continue to serve as a venue for progressing policy work, conducting outreach, facilitating interaction among members of the ICANN Community, including Board and Staff, and learning about ICANN, this accomplishment marks a significant milestone in the process of addressing the growing number of attendees at meetings, and the growing demand for more sessions, more inter – and intra-community discussion opportunities and more meeting rooms.
> Much work still lies ahead. My team is focused on further development of the meeting schedules and formats to ensure we make the best use of our face-to-face time throughout the year. To that end, we understand that we will need increasing understanding and awareness of the new meetings approach and are planning a number of consultations across the Community in the coming months and through 2015.
> Most importantly, I want to thank the members of the Meeting Strategy Working Group <https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/composition-2013-03-21-en> for their excellent work in providing us with a clear path for the evolution of ICANN Meetings, as well as the individuals and organizations/groups who contributed to the comment period <https://www.icann.org/public-comments/meetings-strategy-2014-02-25-en> and/or participated in public sessions held in Durban <http://durban47.icann.org/node/39835>, Singapore <http://singapore49.icann.org/en/schedule/mon-mswg>, or Los Angeles <http://la51.icann.org/en/schedule/wed-meeting-strategy>.
