These definitions are very arbitrary. If ICANN wishes to rely on a definition of MEAC provided by the Arab League, okay, but I think for the NCUC's regional subgroup, self-identification is a better path forward.

Also to add to the clarification, my understanding is that Israel is considered part of the European region in ICANN, hence why it is not included within the remit of the MEAC Strategy Working Group.

Best,

+1 to Farzi's idea that if you self-identify as being a part of the region, you can join the NCUC's regional subgroup.

Avri, I believe Farzaneh corrected the mistake and added Israel as a full participant to the regional ncuc group. I don't think they should be considered as observers but participants.

I want to commend this initiative and call on other regions to organize. Our Africa rep has initiated this for the region and we hope we strenghen it in Johanesbourg as we will likely have so many African members.

Regards,
Arsene
