Dear all,

Hereby our session description for our session requests for Marakesh.
With the GAC Human Rights and International Law Working Group we
agreed we would request for a joint meeting on Tuesday at 18:00.

It's seems to going to be a very interesting meeting in Marakesh since
the board will also inform us on their plans to develop a Human Rights
Statement with the community (as detailed in their comment to CCWG
Accountability Draft Report 3) [0]

And the CCWG on Accountability will also hold a pre-meeting on the
preceding Friday.

Best,

Niels

[0] . The Board	will work with the community to	develop	a Human
Rights	Statement (a practice inspired by the Ruggie Principles),
including	by engaging an expert to assist	in the	development.
ICANN will	report	to the	community at the ICANN	55 Marrakesh meeting
on	the status	of work	and timelines	for community input and	review.
