      for the PC. I think it's great to learn about the various ICANN

    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">However, I also concur with Remmy that
      not everyone knows the techniques of drafting policy comments, so
      I think it's important to either start with that or alternate the
      policy issue overviews with how-to sessions on aspects of writing
      and responding to comments.</div>

        <div>I think we should not take it for granted that everyone
          knows how to write or do policy comments or respond,
          therefore, even if some of us do, it could be refresher to

        <div>Our delving into RPMR, I think should come along but should

                I’ve been working on a plan for capacity building for
          the NPOC policy committee. <br>
          <br>
                  I would like to propose a plan that rather than focus
          on specific skills, such as submitting comments, we focus on a
          specific policy issue for a few months, and revisiting it a
          few times over several meetings, including discussion at the
          start of the Kobe meeting, and then discussing what has
          happened around the issue again towards the end of the
          meeting. We can then look at the process of general analysis
          and advocacy, rather than specific sub-skills. At each of
          several successive meetings we can review how the policy
          process has gone, and then discuss how effective advocacy and
          policy work has taken. <br>
          <br>
                  The issue that I think would be appropriate is the
          Rights Protection Mechanism Review Working Group. This group
          is at an interesting point, it is working in sub-teams, and
          one of the sub-teams, the Trademark Data Review Sub-team, is
          co-chaired by Martin Silva Valent, who is of course both an
          active NPOC member and an NCSG Councillor. This gives us a
          valuable opportunity to have working group leadership explain
          the process to us, and Martin has indicated he would be
          enthusiastic. Unfortunately he will not be at the Kobe
          meeting, but we may also take advantage of that meeting to
          have NCSG (or other) colleagues explain some of the historical
          background and active issues. <br>
          <br>
                  I would like to hear PC feedback on this idea. <br>
