[Ws2-diversity] Draft 01 Diversity Report

Thu Feb 16 12:56:05 UTC 2017

Dear Mathieu 

Thanks for the feedback. I agree that the increased diversity can actually expand the diversity of skills within ICANN but the pair of the conversation we haven't yet considered is the kind of skills that would constitutes skills diversity. Would it be based purely on work experience or academic qualifications or a combination of both? Both you and Lousewies raise important discussion points and look forwards to further discussions. 

Kind regards 

Fiona Asonga

Dear Colleagues, 

I apologize for not being able to make many of the calls, but congratulate the group on the progress on the document. 

I did post a comment on the Gdoc, about the following sentence : 

“While acknowledging the importance of diversity in the accountability mechanisms, members of WS2 have expressed their view that diversity requirement should not prevail over skills or experience requirements.” 

Lousewies was supporting the formulation, and I understand where she’s coming from on that, but I personally have an issue with it : it implies that there is a mutually exclusive choice to be made between skills on the one side, diversity on the other. I do not share this view. I contend that increased diversity would actually expand the diversity of skills within ICANN. 

What do other group members think about it ? 

Whatever the outcome of this discussion, it would be useful to detail exactly what kind of skills we want to look at in terms of skills diversity. Is it legal / technical / market ? Others ? 

Best 

Mathieu

Dear Lousewies, 

Thanks for the comments! 

I moved the document to this google doc so everyone can comment https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ziy7NDZZd9bW08HOxY-CYUx3qQdno5i9Rqp4fOJtAT0 , the previous document was in word format . it is in suggestion mode, so you can propose edits and changes. 

I encourage all members of the subgroup to go through the document and add their suggestions. we will add other parts in coming days. 

Best, 

Rafik

Dear all, 
Congratulations on a strong first draft. As you know, as board liaison I have been mostly observing, but I have taken the liberty to make some small comments in the document in a personal capacity. Hope its useful. 
I look forward to seeing many of you in Copenhagen.
