CCWG-Accountability WS2 Face to Face Plenary

CCWG-Accountability WS2 Plenary at ICANN 62 – Panama City – All day Sunday 24 June starting at 08:30 Local – Update on Chartering Organization consideration of the WS2 Final report. The CCWG-Accountability WS2 is expecting that its Chartering Organizations will be considering the endorsement of the WS2 final report at ICANN 62. To support this the CCWG-Accountability WS2 aims to distribute the final report to its Chartering Organizations at least 3 weeks prior to the beginning of ICANN 62. In addition to this CCWG-Accountability WS2 will be holding informational webinars on its final report prior to ICANN 62. The WS2 plenary, which will be held the day prior to ICANN 62 beginning, will focus on addressing any questions or issues that will have surfaced since the distribution of the WS2 final report. As a reminder the WS 2 topics are: • Diversity • Guidelines for Good Faith Conduct • Human Rights • Jurisdiction • Ombudsman • SO/AC Accountability • Staff Accountability • Transparency If the CCWG-Accountability WS2 Chartering Organizations endorse the WS2 final report by the end of ICANN 62 the CCWG-Accountability will forward it to the ICANN Board for consideration and adoption as per the CCWG-Accountability charter. Note: It is important to note that the IRP IOT was included as part of WS2 for administrative simplicity but is in fact independent of WS2. Current expectations are that the IRP IOT will continue beyond the scheduled completion date of June 2018 for WS2. - Session Leader: Theresa Swinehart Staff Facilitator: Nathalie Vergnolle
