[bc-gnso] ICANN News Alert -- Improving Global Engagement: ICANN Globalization Survey

[Marilyn Cade]

Dear BC membersIn our Secretariat's absence, I am forwarding the News Alert announcing the ICANN survey regarding ICANN's Globalization Survey.
I am asked as a Chair of the BC to encourage you to take the survey.  
This is an ICANN survey. I did take the survey, so that I can advise you of the time commitment, which is at least 20 min.  It was  not pre-reviewed with the leadership of the organization. It allows you to 'skip' certain questions. Should you need more information on a particular topic, you might decide to skip questions. or show that in the optional open comment box.  
If you want to discuss the overall purpose of the survey, feel free to contact me. However, each individual respondent is asked to respond as an individual, so I will not be discussing responses. Merely trying to help to understand the purpose of the survey. 
Marilyn Cade, BC Chair
