The ombudsman is an independent, impartial, and neutral officer of ICANN.

His function is to act as an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) office for the ICANN community who may wish to lodge a complaint about a staff or board decision, action or inaction. The purpose of the office is to ensure that the members of the ICANN community have been treated fairly. The Ombudsman will act as impartial officer and will attempt to resolve complaints about unfair treatment by ICANN using ADR techniques.

Jurisdiction of the Ombudsman

ICANN has changed the method by which it draws input into its public meetings - including the public forum - in an effort to make it easier to interact, and hence encourage greater interaction.
