*Consensus Playbook Published*



Originated from GNSO’s Policy Development Process (PDP) 3.0 initiative and
a subsequent Additional Budget Request (ABR), the *Consensus Playbook*has
been completed for the ICANN community to reference and use. *The Consensus
Playbook can be downloaded here: **http://go.icann.org/consensus*
<http://go.icann.org/consensus>



This playbook was developed by an external vendor (Consensus Building
Institute - CBI.org <https://www.cbi.org/>) via an Additional Budget Request
<https://go.icann.org/3bkd5Oz> (ABR) for FY20 submitted by the GNSO
Council, based on PDP 3.0 improvements <http://go.icann.org/pdp3dot0>. The
ICANN Boardapproved <https://community.icann.org/x/Wxq8BQ> the ABR
contingent upon the playbook being developed with *broad applicability
across the community*, and not just limited to GNSO PDPs. Hence, this*Consensus
Playbook* aims to provide community volunteers with practical tools and
best practices for building consensus, bridging differences, and breaking
deadlocks within ICANN processes beyond just GNSO working groups. In
developing the playbook, CBI interviewed fourteen (14) ICANN community
leaders across ICANN’s SOs and ACs, who shared their extensive consensus
building experience in leading and participating in working groups and
community groups.



The playbook stresses that consensus building should be considered as a
journey and it does not just take place at the end of a group’s
deliberations. To that end, we’d like to draw your attention to Appendix A,
which serves as a reference guide to help inform you which of the fifteen
(15) “plays” are applicable to the various phases of the community’s work.



It is important to note that this playbook does not seek to change the
definition of consensus or the methods of decision making as prescribed in
each community group’s rules and procedure; it does not seek to introduce
any new requirements either.* It is designed for the ICANN community and is
only permitted to be used by the ICANN community in support of ICANN
related work. The playbook shall not be used for any non-ICANN related
purposes.*



All ICANN community volunteers are strongly encouraged to review the
playbook. We anticipate additional opportunities for the ICANN community to
discuss the contents and practical utility of the playbook.
