<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Working Group Members,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On 26 March 2014, the GNSO Council approved a process and questionnaire for Working Groups to conduct Self-Assessments when their work has been substantially finished. The goal is to provide Chartering Organizations, such as the GNSO Council,
important information about how well its Working Groups are functioning through an examination of their Inputs, Processes, and Outputs, ultimately leading to continuing improvements.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The SubPro</span> Working Group has been identified to participate in this process the details of which are provided below:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0cm" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2">The survey tool is hosted by ClickTools at this link:
<span lang="EN-GB"><a href="https://engage.clicktools.com/v2/2fp6dk4mud6k5">https://engage.clicktools.com/v2/2fp6dk4mud6k5</a></span>. Please do not share this link with anyone other than Working Group members.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2">Background information and instructions are contained within the instrument. There is no login requirement, so you will not need user credentials.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2">This questionnaire is organized into 31 questions divided into six short sections. Simply answer the questions (most use a 1-7 rating scale) on each page and, when you reach the end,
click “Submit.” If you receive a “Thank You” response, your feedback was successfully populated.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2">There is no option in this survey instrument to save and continue later. If you would like to browse the questions in advance, they are published on the ICANN Community Wiki at:
<a href="https://community.icann.org/x/nTXxAg" title="https://community.icann.org/x/nTXxAg">
https://community.icann.org/x/nTXxAg</a>.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2">The survey should take approximately 15 minutes depending upon the number of comments you choose to provide.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2">The survey will be open for three weeks and will
<b>close on Tuesday 20 April at 23:59 UTC</b>.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A member of the GNSO policy support staff will monitor the completion process and be available to provide technical assistance if needed. If you are having difficulty with the survey and need assistance, you can email
<a href="mailto:gnso-secs@icann.org">gnso-secs@icann.org</a>.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i>Confidentiality: We will be asking you for identifying information to ensure that each response is valid. Your individual responses will not be accessible by anyone other than the the ICANN GNSO Policy Support Staff. The aim is not to
disclose or publish responses in a way that could be matched to your identity.<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB">Once the survey period has closed, staff will produce a report summarizing the findings. This report will be shared with the Working Group and the GNSO Council.
It may also be shared with the Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies, as well as potentially other interested parties.</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New";color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
