Dear all,<br>
<br>
Rafik and I have requested two meetings for ICANN53 in Buenos Aires:<br>
one general session to raise awareness around this issue and present<br>
our work, and one working session.<br>
<br>
We have been a bit late in submitting session descriptions, so it<br>
would be greatly appreciated if you could comment on these<br>
descriptions as soon as possible.<br>
<br>
Session 1 - ICANNs Corporate and Social Responsibility to Respect<br>
Human Rights<br>
<br>
There is a growing recognition in parts of the ICANN community that<br>
some of ICANN’s policies and other actions have implications for human<br>
rights like freedom of expression and the right to privacy. In ICANNs<br>
articles of incorporation it's stated that ICANN will operate in<br>
conformity with international law, which includes human rights law.<br>
This session will focus on how ICANNs policies and procures can be<br>
better harmonized with internationally recognized human rights and<br>
corporate social responsibility standards.<br>
<br>
This session will present the work done in the framework of the cross<br>
community working party on ICANNs Corporate and Social Responsibility<br>
to Respect Human Rights and builds on the sessions held London, Los<br>
Angeles, and Singapore and the previous reports that were produced on<br>
this topic.<br>
<br>
<br>
Session 2 - Working session of Cross Community Working Party on ICANNs<br>
Corporate and Social Responsibility to Respect Human Rights<br>
<br>
This cross community working party (CCWP) seeks to map and understand<br>
the issues and potential solutions related to corporate and social<br>
responsibilities of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and<br>
Numbers (ICANN), and this related, but not limited to policies,<br>
procedures and operations, it particularly focuses on ICANNs<br>
responsibility to respect human rights.<br>
<br>
This sessions will facilitate dialogue between members of the<br>
community that have an interest in this topic and will discuss in<br>
depth the research that has been done and will discuss the future work<br>
of the CCWP as well as the new charter and report.<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance,<br>
<br>
Niels<br>
