>>
>> Dear all,
>>
>> This is to inform you that Public Interest is now confirmed as one of the
>> High-Interest Topic sessions for ICANN57.
>>
>> Attached is the draft block schedule, which is subject to change as
>> sessions are likely to be shuffled further in order to avoid conflicts.
>>
>> The public interest session will be 90 minutes long, and is *tentatively*
>> scheduled to take place on Sunday, 6 November, from 15:15 - 16:45.

>> Additional information on the session can be found below, with more to

>> 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
