[NCUC-DISCUSS] More NCUC-relevant sessions at the Singapore meeting

[William Drake]

Hello

The full schedule for ICANN 52, 8-12 February 2015, is at http://singapore52.icann.org/en/schedule-full <http://singapore52.icann.org/en/schedule-full>.  Almost everything (except receptions and small private gatherings) will have good remote participation, so if you can’t come in person you can certainly get engaged anyway.  This should be an eventful and consequential meeting, given all the special sessions on the IANA transition and accountability processes.  In addition to those, which are sprinkled throughout the week, the NCSG and GNSO meetings Rafik has listed on ncsg-discuss, and the usual big ticket meetings like the Public Forum, I thought I’d just flag a couple of particular relevance to NCUCers, with times and room names (we don’t do an integrated calendar, since peoples’ interests and session selections vary). See below if interested.

Best

Bill



Saturday

GNSO and IGC meet all day.  Afterwards:

17:15 to 18:45 Moor
Civil Society @ ICANN52
http://singapore52.icann.org/en/schedule/sat-civil-society <http://singapore52.icann.org/en/schedule/sat-civil-society> 
This will be a continuation of the staff-supported outreach events we started in London, except now they are NCSG-wide and in this case it’ll be mostly a networking reception (no RM).

Monday

14:00 to 15:15 Collyer
S0/AC Led High-Interest Topic  
http://singapore52.icann.org/en/schedule/mon-soac-high-interest <http://singapore52.icann.org/en/schedule/mon-soac-high-interest>  
We will talk inter alia about the problems of in-reach and member engagement, which cut across ICANN.

16:30 to 17:45 Bras Basah
Cross Community Working Group on Internet Governance

GNSO Review Working Party Meeting
http://singapore52.icann.org/en/schedule/sun-gnso-review <http://singapore52.icann.org/en/schedule/sun-gnso-review> 
This should include some coverage of structural as well as process issues, further to the NCPH discussion in DC.

Human Rights and ICANN - Continuing the Conversation
http://singapore52.icann.org/en/schedule/wed-human-rights <http://singapore52.icann.org/en/schedule/wed-human-rights> 
This process began at the NCUC CD meeting in London and has now become a sustained push in collaboration with friendlies beyond civil society. I expect Marilia or Niels will be sending more info.
