> The session will explore the real-world implications of DNS abuse
> mitigation for civil society and end users, with a particular focus on how
> enforcement measures operate in practice and whether current approaches
> adequately protect due process and human rights. The webinar aims to bridge
> the gap between policy development and implementation while amplifying
> perspectives from diverse regions.

> We would especially value insights that could address:
> (i) current actions and strategies undertaken by registrars in DNS abuse
> mitigation;
> (ii) where possible, the intersection between DNS abuse enforcement and
> human rights, including due process, freedom of expression, and privacy; and
> (iii) practical challenges registrars encounter when responding to
> third-party requests related to DNS abuse.
>
> The webinar will bring together speakers from the technical community,
> civil society, and policy spaces and is open to participants from across
> ICANN and the broader Internet governance ecosystem.
>
> Please find attached the draft concept note, which outlines the objectives
> and structure of the session in more detail.
