[gnso-review-dt] GNSO Review - Westlake Draft Report

[Larisa B. Gurnick]

Dear members of the GNSO Review Working Party,

Attached is Westlake's Draft Report, incorporating your feedback from several weeks ago, along with additional work completed by their team.  Westlake also submitted the attached Summary of the Working Party's comments and how they were resolved.  These documents will be available for your convenience on the GNSO Review Wiki<https://community.icann.org/x/XYI0Aw>.  At your request, this Draft Report is intended for GNSO Review Working Party's consideration, prior to being posted for Public Comment.  (As a reminder, included below is the Review Timeline.)  It represents work in process, with the goal to ensure that the Final Report (expected at the end of August) is useful in fostering continuous improvement.

Westlake has added Section 1: Report Summary which provides a useful overview.  Appendix 2: Survey quantitative summary results was  distributed previously and can be found on the GNSO Review Wiki<https://community.icann.org/x/voIHAw>.

Continuing Opportunities for Dialogue and Feedback
The ongoing dialogue and engagement with Westlake continues with two working sessions in May to discuss the Draft Report.
-   4 May @ 15:00-17:00 UTC
-   12 May @ 19:00-20:30 UTC (if needed)
-   Staff sent calendar invites for these two meetings some time ago - please let Charla know if you don't have this information.

Westlake will issue a Draft Report for Public Comment on 1 June, after considering your further comments and feedback over the course of the next several weeks.  The entire community will have the opportunity to provide comments during the Public Comment period (1 June - 20 July).  Section 1: Report Summary will be translated into UN languages, plus Portuguese.

Various other outreach and engagement activities are underway. Westlake is preparing a brief video highlighting key points of the report, to facilitate community engagement.  Staff is planning briefings and additional opportunities for interaction with the GNSO and other community members interested in providing feedback, during ICANN53.

Staff would welcome your ideas and suggestions of other ways to engage the community during the Public Comment period.
