could instead serve as tools for the community to reinforce the commitment to the public interest and to demonstrate how specific recommendations, advice, and public comments are in the global public interest. This includes the ICANN community guiding the
ICANN Board about the public interest determination the latter must make in its decisions.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
