>> Dear Colleagues,<br>
><br>
>> As announced during our last call, the co-Chairs have reviewed<br>
>> where we are on this issue. Our group is tasked to work on the<br>
>> basis of consensus, and we have focused on assessing where this<br>
>> condition was met .<br>
><br>
>> It is our conclusion that : 1) our group has achieved consensus<br>
>> on including a human rights related Commitment in Icann's Bylaws.<br>
>> 2) no particular wording currently proposed achieved consensus.<br>
><br>
>> As a consequence, we propose to include into the public comment<br>
>> 2 report (in the Mission & Core value section, a draft is<br>
>> included below) - this assessment and a firm commitment to add a<br>
>> human rights related Commitment into Icann's Bylaws, - the<br>
>> underlying requirements expressed during the debate, - the<br>
>> concrete language proposals that were considered by our group so<br>
>> far, as examples<br>
><br>
>> Finally, given the strong momentum on the issue, both during the<br>
>> meeting and on list before and after, and taking into account<br>
>> the high level of complexity involved, we suggest to kick off<br>
>> ASAP a subgroup to further refine the requirements and assess<br>
>> potential options based on further studies of the current<br>
>> situation and "agreed-on" language.<br>
><br>
>> We thank you all for your understanding and commitment on this<br>
>> topic, as well as the extensive discussions both on list and<br>
>> during the calls about this.<br>
><br>
>> As a reminder, Minority statements filed until Saturday 12.00<br>
>> UTC will be incorporated into the report to be published on<br>
>> Monday. Statements filed after this deadline will be published<br>
>> online but not incorporated into the report.<br>

><br>
>> Elaborating an Icann Commitment to Human Rights<br>
><br>
>> The CCWG-Accountability extensively discussed the opportunity to<br>
>> include into Icann Bylaws a Comittment related to Human Rights.<br>
>> The group commissioned a legal analysis of whether the<br>
>> termination of the IANA contract would induce changes into<br>
>> Icann's obligations with regards to Human Rights (LINK). While no<br>
>> significant issue was found to be directly linked to the<br>
>> termination of the IANA contract, the group acknowledged the<br>
>> recurring debates around the nature of Icann's accountability<br>
>> towards the respect of fundamental human rights.<br>
><br>
>> These discussions identified the following, non-exhaustive, list<br>
>> of accountability-related requirements : - the NTIA criteria to<br>
>> maintain the openness of the Internet, including free expression<br>
>> and the free flow of information - the need to avoid extending<br>
>> Icann's mission into content regulation - the importance of<br>
>> assessing the impact of Icann policies on Human righ ts<br>
><br>
>> Examples of language that could serve as a Commitment were as<br>
>> follows : - Within its mission and in its operations, ICANN will<br>
>> be committed to respect the fundamental human rights of the<br>
>> exercise of free expression and the free flow of information. -<br>
>> Within its mission and in it operations, ICANN will be committed<br>
>> to respect internationally recognized fundamental human rights.<br>
><br>
>> The group has achieved consensus on including a human rights<br>
>> related Commitment in Icann's Bylaws. However no particular<br>
>> wording currently proposed achieved consensus. Reiterating its<br>
>> commitment to elaborate concrete proposals as part of its<br>
>> mandate, the CCWG-Accountability is calling for comments on this<br>
>> approach and the underlying requirements.<br>
