[NCUC-EC] NCSG - Board meeting at ICANN 72

[Ken Herman]

Hi Raphael.

 

The timing isn’t great for me but I will try to attend and take notes. I don’t guarantee those notes are comprehensible as the issues are still opaque to me, but I will give it a go.

Dear all,

 

Kind reminder for this matter; I'd rather have a dedicated and named volunteer for that. 


Thanks!

Dear all, 

 

The meeting of NCSG with the Board is taking place on Monday at 1600 UTC. I unfortunately will not be able to attend the meeting on Monday at all. It would be important that one of you volunteers to take notes during that meeting, notes that you can then share with Bruna for further reporting to the membership. 

 

You will find the questions NCSG submitted below.

 

Thank you and have a nice day, 

 

P.S. Maryam/Andrea, if you could note my apologies, thanks!

1. On the FY22 Goals document developed by the ICANN Board we can find  "Goal 9: Work with Internet governance stakeholders around the world who share the objective of one open Internet for all". With regards to this discussion, we would like to point out that its pretty much welcome but can also be interpreted as a rather broad goal. Therefore  NCSG would like to ask the Board what are the steps that you envisage? How do you ensure that it still preserves the multistakeholder model within ICANN? What is "healthy collaboration", what does it mean? Lastly, what about the governments which do not share objective of the open internet? 


2. What are the plans for our return to F2F/Hybrid meetings? NCSG would like to discuss and learn how the decisions are going to be taken, what factors are going to be weighed in, in particular about vaccines. And what is a back up plan if we return to the meeting but some people can't travel. Has the Board considered experiences of hybrid meetings? If yes which ones?

 

Additionally, the Board intended to discuss how they can " efficiently identify and work more closely with Governments globally, as well as educate, train and interact when it comes to geopolitical issues relating to ICANN’s mission. "
