[ME ICANN] [MEAC SWG] Kind reminder call for policy topics Re: ME Space @ ICANN 66

Tue Sep 3 20:36:19 UTC 2019

 Thank you Nadira, have been keeping an eye actually and this was a "retrospective support". Not that I didn't like Amr's and Chokri's proposals :) they are great too.

But yea, you are right...email back log, at times, is a real challenge. ...Welcome to the world of IG :)
Also, I would love to be part of the drafting team and work of such a nice group of folks again. Will write to you and Tijani on the original thread. 

Thanks again. 

Best, 
Zakir

 Thank you Manal, 

I believe this is an excellent topic for the ME space and I support. Keeping in view the diverse region that we have, this would be a good topic for consideration in the context of the explanation that you've given. 
So yea, +1 from my end. 

Best,Zakir

Dear Nadira, Tijani and All ..

Apologies for my weak participation on this mailing list, due to work load .. I still follow the discussions though a bit delayed ..

Following your emails I would like to propose “Evolving ICANN’s Multistakeholder Model” as a topic for ICANN66 ME Space .. It’s not a policy topic but a topic that has to do with the existing model and current process and aligns with ICANN Strategic Plan 2021-2025 – Strategic Objective #2 on Governance, aiming at improving the effectiveness of ICANN’s multistakeholder model of governance ..

Community discussions identified aninitial list of 21 issues that are preventing ICANN’s multistakeholder model from functioning more effectively and efficiently .. The 21 issues were then merged and consolidated to afinal list of 11 issues, namely:

1.      Prioritization of Work

2.      Precision in scoping the work

3.      Costs

4.      Representativeness + Inclusiveness

5.      Consensus

6.      Terms

7.      Recruitment + Demographics

8.      Complexity

9.      Efficient Use of Resources

10.   Culture + Trust + Silos

11.   Roles and Responsibilities + Holistic View of ICANN

Worth noting that, here will be a community discussion on this topic on the Thursday of the Montreal week, per the announcedBlock Schedule, and I believe it would be a good opportunity if the ME space compiles input on few issues of interest to our region and present it during the session (similar to the excellent intervention on Universal Acceptance in Marrakech, thanks to everyone who was involved) .. 

You may find additional information onthis page ..

@Baher @Fahd, should this be agreed, appreciate if you can check the exact version of the document that will be discussed in Montreal ..

Kind Regards

Dear All, 

I would like to encourage the community members to propose ICANN Topics to bring attention to our  collective voice.

You don't have to be travelling to ICANN 66 in order to propose a topic. 

The ME statement for ICANN Kobe was a success in spite many of the drafting team were able to attend the meeting.  

Looking forward hearing from you,

Best wishes,

Nadira AL-Araj
