<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">“The Middle East is not one of the ICANN’s 5 geographic regions, but it is one of the regions covered by the Global Stakeholder Engagement (GSE) team, and it has its own regional engagement strategy developed by
the community. Information in the report below comes from the GSE team, hence it’s been reported per each of the GSE regions. ICANN has 5 regional offices, one of which is in Istanbul and it serves Middle East and Africa (MEA) region.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
