<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">An action item from your 18 May call with Goran, where you discussed the idea of a phased return to large face-to-face meetings, was for ICANN Org to prepare a draft of what such an approach might
look like. I am pleased to attach a draft proposal that we believe is feasible and prudent approach.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Goran and I hope that you will share the draft with your community groups as we are eager to hear the community’s views and feedback on what we have described in the paper. Goran will also touch
on the various elements outlined in the draft approach during the third ICANN68 plenary session scheduled for 25 June, on Advancing Policy Work in the Current Environment. The Community can provide some initial comments at that session and we will follow
up with further conversations during our next Planning Meeting for ICANN69.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
