[cc-humanrights] Potential Research Topics on SCR and HR

[Mikhail Medrish]

Dear colleagues!
This is a wonderful text to start with.
I have some comments about p. 1.

The main objectives of ICANN are very different from those of
​telecom ​
service provider
​​
s
​ (TSP - big communications)​
.
​TSP
are working with end
​-​
users.ICANN is working with the registr
​ars​
.
In this regard
​ IMHO ​
it
is not correct to compare ICANN
​with TSP
.
​HR i
Issues may arise indirectly through contracts between registries and
registrars, and then through contracts between
​ ​
registries
​ and ​
end-users.
Precisely these relationships will be very interesting to explore
​ through the lens of Corporate Social Responsibility of ICANN​
.

> 1.      Paper on Corporate Social Responsibility of ICANN:
> •       Pointing to the experiences of other corporations;
> •       What have the other big communications/other Internet-related
> companies done to comply with their CSR duties;
> •       How they did it;
> •       Why they did it;
> •       And what ICANN could learn from them;
> •       So such paper would be several examples discussed and suggestions
> for ICANN.

2.      Paper with the analysis of the WHOIS 'update' & 'revision' and the
> new system proposed system to replace (so mainly data protection and
> privacy concerns).
>
> 3.      Paper on the UDRP Problematic Issues:
> •       Free Speech;
> •       Right to Fair Trial & Due Process Concerns.
>
> 4.      Paper pointing potential policy areas needing HR impact
> assessments:
> •       what such HR assessments would change ;
> •       Why ICANN needs them;
> •       (although overall, I am not yet in a position to overview them
> all, Stephanie mentioned this, she perhaps is much more suitable for such a
> task).
>
> 5.      Paper analyzing issues on .gay application
> •       Highlighting many problems involved (although not sure if that is
> super needed, as it seems to be finally moving somewhere..)
>
> 6.      Paper on ICANN - Accountability & Transparency –
> •       Focus on totally procedural aspects, not substantial (so no more
> HR as such, no free speech, no privacy);
> •       Might be with a focus on IANA transition, if needed.

> My own opinion: lets focus on CSR in Buenos Aires to gain even more

> Let me know what do You think, will be waiting for suggestions and
