ICANN meetings

What It Is | This is a meeting between the Members of the At-Large Advisory Committee (“ALAC”), the Structural Improvements Committee (“SIC”) and the Board Governance Committee (“BGC”).

Why It's Important | Following the August 2009 Board decision for the At-Large community to appoint one voting ICANN Board member, the ALAC prepared a White Paper on the At-Large Board Member Selection Process. This will be the first opportunity for At-Large to discuss the White Paper with the SIC and the Board Governance Committee and next steps. Additionally, with the approval of the recommendations of the At-Large Review Working Group’s final report, this will be an opportunity for members of At-Large, the SIC, and the Board Governance Committee to discuss the progress of the ALAC Improvements.

Who Should Attend | Members of the At-Large Advisory Committee (“ALAC”), the Structural Improvements Committee (“SIC”) and the Board Governance Committee(“BGC”).

What It Is | This is the public presentation of the final reports of: the Board review WG, the NomCom finalization review WG and the SSAC review WG.

Why It's Important | The draft versions of these reports were presented at the Seoul meeting (October 2009).  All comments received during the presentations and subsequent public comment sessions were taken into account by the review WGs when finalizing their reports. The final reports have now been forwarded to the Board Structural Improvements Committee with a view to issuing recommendations to the Board on implementation activities.  This workshop represents a last opportunity for interested parties to offer comments which have not been submitted during previous public consultation phases.

Who Should Attend | Members of the Board and of the Structural Improvements Committee, Members of the SSAC Community, Members and past Members of the Nominating Committee, Members of the ALAC/At-Large communities, as well as any other interested party

Why It's Important | It is an opportunity for the community to have a more detailed understanding of the work being done by the Board Committees.
