<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;background:white"><span style="color:black">After the GNSO Council’s Strategic Planning Session in January 2020, the Council acknowledged that there are limited resources available for policy development activities
 and related work. This resource limitation means that the GNSO Council must efficiently complete its current work, but also prioritize the new work waiting in its pipeline. At the Strategic Planning Session, Councilors participated in an informal and non-binding
 ranking survey, which was used as a “sense of the room.” This informational survey result was shared with Councilors to then share with their respective Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies, to gain a better sense of the various groups’ top priorities. The
 Council touched on this topic briefly during the February Council meeting and again during its March meeting.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;background:white"><span style="color:black">Council leadership and staff developed a draft work plan for the Council’s consideration. Previously, the focus was on prioritization of the GNSO’s work, which implies that
 the work should be ranked in order of priority. However, Council leadership determined that it might be more practical to think of this exercise more simply as establishing a work plan, which does still consider the urgency of the work, but also looks at each
 element of work in a more granular fashion and identifies potential dependencies. What this allows the Council to do is to potentially carve out pieces of work from a project that might be initiated in the near-term, some of which may then serve as the preparatory/informational
 basis for Council next steps.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;background:white"><span style="color:black">While this topic is focused on a relatively long-term work plan for the GNSO, the landscape has changed significantly since the Strategic Planning Session in late January
 of 2020. It is possible that capacity within the community, as well as Policy staff, is or may be diminished by the impact from the coronavirus pandemic.<b> For instance, the Council had anticipated initiating the IGO Work Track just after ICANN68, but Council
 leadership believes discussion is warranted on whether the timing still remains appropriate.</b></span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;background:white"><span style="color:black">Here, the Council will discuss this change in approach (and draft document) to establishing the Council’s draft work plan for 2020, and potentially beyond, but will also
 consider whether the coronavirus pandemic might impact that plan.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
