[PublicInterest] Materials from the Public Interest Session at ICANN57

[Olga Cavalli]

Dear Ergys,

many thanks, unfortunately I could not join the session as I must attend
another one.

Can you please tell me what is:

Public Interest Group: At-Large Advisory Committee

Is it there a specific group within ICANN?

If this is the case some GAC members may be interested to Join it.

Best
Olga

> 9. Public Interest Group: At-Large Advisory Committee
>
> *Session Leader(s):* Sally Costerton
>
> *Background/ Importance:* Understanding the concept of the public
> interest within ICANN’s remit been a topic of discussion for many years. In
> 2013-2014, the Strategy Panel on Public Responsibility Framework explored
> this topic and, in consultations with the community, proposed the following
> definition for the global public interest in relation to the Internet:
> "ensuring that the Internet becomes, and continues to be, stable,
> inclusive, and accessible across the globe so that all may enjoy the
> benefits of a single and open Internet. In addressing its public
> responsibility, ICANN must build trust in the Internet and its governance
> ecosystem." While this definition has been well received, there is a desire
> to revisit. A high interest session took place at ICANN55, which helped
> build on previous discussions, but did not lead to concrete recommendations
> for next steps. Following ICANN55, the At-Large Advisory Committee created
> a Working Group to further explore the concept of the public interest. As
> the organization readies for significant changes in its governance
> structure in light of the impending IANA functions stewardship transition,
> it is important to carry the conversation forward.
>
> *Session Goals/Expected Outcomes:*
>
> 1. Further understand the historical and political nuances of the ‘global
> public interest’ in various contexts and regions
>
> 2. Reach a shared understanding of what the concept of public interest
> means in the context of ICANN
>
> 3. Explore how public interest could be operationalized as the basis for
> decision-making at ICANN
>
> 4. Determine next steps
