Malcolm, All,
Thank you for the feedbacks, and for the various suggestions.
Picking up on your proposal Malcolm, how about :
"Ensuring that ICANN is open to diverse participation will tend to broaden
the range of skills and experience available, but rigid application of
diversity requirements for selection could in some cases have the opposite
effect, and this unintended consequence *needs to be carefully assessed*."
(instead of "avoided").
Since this part of the text is at the "definition" level, we should probably
not run into any recommendation type of sentence ?
Best
Mathieu

Corinne's suggested text would place diversity requirements on an equal
footing with skills and experience requirements. That doesn't really address
the concern in the previous text - in fact it nullifies it - while at the
same time it also doesn't make the point Mathieu was raising that promoting
diversity creates a deeper pool from which to draw skills and experience.
Perhaps you would be willing to consider my alternative suggestion,
"Ensuring that ICANN is open to diverse participation will tend to broaden
the range of skills and experience available, but rigid application of
diversity requirements for selection could in some cases have the opposite
effect, and this should be avoided."
which address both concerns.
Best,
Malcolm.
