Historical Resolution Tracking Feature
Through 2022, ICANN provided basic tracking information for resolutions taken by the ICANN Board. That information included some or all of the following: when the resolution was approved, what it's about, and the status and details of the resulting implementation actions. Additional information and links to related resolutions were also provided when available, enabling users to research Board resolutions, track implementation of every Board action, and quickly find more information on topics of interest addressed by the Board.
With the enhanced search features made available for all Board Materials on ICANN.org, ICANN retired this separate Resolution tracking and classification work. All resolution tracking information is preserved within this archived feature.
Important note: The explanatory text provided through this database (including the summary, implementation actions, identification of related resolutions, and additional information) is an interpretation or an explanation that has no official authority and does not represent the purpose behind the Board actions, nor does any explanations or interpretations modify or override the Resolutions themselves. Resolutions can only be modified through further act of the ICANN Board.
This is an archive of the Resolution Tracking Feature. To find the most up to date resolutions, please visit: https://www.icann.org/en/board-activities-and-meetings?document-types=approved-resolutions&expand-all=true&initial-load=true.
