<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Dear all,<br>
<br>
Please refer to this version of the email instead. The prior version<br>
inadvertently quoted from a draft version of the WS1 report.<br>
<br>
<br>
We hope this email finds you all very well. As you all know we shared<br>
with you the Framework of Interpretation of the Human Rights bylaw.<br>
After this the Human Rights Subgroup worked on next steps, which led us<br>
to taking a close look at our mandate and finding that there are<br>
different ways of interpreting this. This difference stems, in part,<br>
from the different constructions of our mandate in Annex 6 and in Annex 12.<br>
<br>
That is why we come to you for guidance to see where we are, and where<br>
we should go next.<br>
<br>
In a bit more detail:<br>
<br>
Paragraph 7 of Annex 6 of the CCWG reads:<br>
<br>
Include the following in Work Stream 2 activities:<br>
Develop an FOI-HR for the Human Rights Bylaw.<br>
Consider which specific Human Rights conventions or other instruments,<br>
if any, should be used by ICANN in interpreting and implementing the<br>
Human Rights Bylaw.<br>
Consider the policies and frameworks, if any, that ICANN needs to<br>
develop or enhance in order to fulfill its commitment to respect Human<br>
Rights.<br>
Consistent with ICANN’s existing processes and protocols, consider how<br>
these new frameworks should be discussed and drafted to ensure broad<br>
multistakeholder involvement in the process.<br>
Consider what effect, if any, this Bylaw will have on ICANN’s<br>
consideration of advice given by the Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC).<br>
Consider how, if at all, this Bylaw will affect how ICANN’s operations<br>
are carried out.<br>
Consider how the interpretation and implementation of this Bylaw will<br>
interact with existing and future ICANN policies and procedures.<br>
<br>
Whereas Paragraph 24 of Annex 12 of the CCWG report reads:<br>
<br>
.24 To ensure that adding the proposed Human Rights Bylaw provision<br>
into the ICANN Bylaws does not lead to an expansion of ICANN’s Mission<br>
or scope, the CCWG -Accountability will develop a Framework of<br>
Interpretation for Human Rights (FOI-HR) as a consensus recommendation<br>
in Work Stream 2 to be approved by the ICANN Board using the same<br>
process and criteria as for Work Stream 1 recommendations, and the Bylaw<br>
provision will not enter into force before the FOI-HR is in place. The<br>
CCWG-Accountability will consider the following as it develops the FOI-HR:<br>
Consider which specific Human Rights conventions or other instruments,<br>
if any, should be used by ICANN in interpreting and implementing the<br>
Human Rights Bylaw.<br>
Consider the policies and frameworks, if any, that ICANN needs to<br>
develop or enhance in order to fulfill its commitment to respect Human<br>
Rights.<br>
Consistent with ICANN’s existing processes and protocols, consider how<br>
these new frameworks should be discussed and drafted to ensure broad<br>
multistakeholder involvement in the process.<br>
Consider what effect, if any, this Bylaw would have on ICANN’s<u></u><u></u></p>
<div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12pt">consideration of advice given by the Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC).<br>
Consider how, if at all, this Bylaw will affect how ICANN’s operations<br>
are carried out.<br>
Consider how the interpretation and implementation of this Bylaw will<br>
interact with existing and future ICANN policies and procedures.<br>
<br>
Annex 6 makes it seem like each of the “bullet points” is a separate<br>
task, starting with the Framework of Interpretation. On the other hand,<br>
Annex 12 makes it seem like the “bullet points” are not really separate<br>
tasks, but only items to be considered as we prepare the Framework of<br>
Interpretation. This makes a significant difference in how we determine<br>
what work lies before us, and also how we look at the Framework of<br>
Interpretation we have completed.<br>
<br>
In our initial work we focused on providing a Framework of<br>
Interpretation of the Bylaw, clearly stating how it should be<br>
interpreted, and we did not focus on how the Bylaw could be<br>
“operationalized”, even though of course we considered the potential<br>
consequences this might have.<br>
<br>
The question is now, what are the next steps? We see different options:<br>
<br>
1. We're done. The FoI is developed, and under consideration by the plenary.<br>
2. We need to have a second look at the FoI and make potential<br>
amendments to the FoI to give more guidance based on the considerations<br>
listed in Annex 6.<br>
3. We need to produce a new document that responds directly to each of<br>
the “bullet points,” which could include examples and recommendations on<br>
what potential next steps could be<br>
4. We need to test specific cases on a hypothetical basis to see<br>
whether the FoI suffices. (in this regard, hypothetical cases suggested<br>
by the plenary would be helpful.)<br>
<br>
We've have made first steps into the direction of step 3, but this led<br>
us into quite detailed discussions on recommending the use of Human<br>
Rights Impact Assessments and how and where these could be integrated in<br>
PDPs and ICANN operations. In these discussions, it felt as though we<br>
were going into too much detail, and stepping outside of the mandate of<br>
our Subgroup.<br>
<br>
5. A fifth option could be (and this might be a mix between option 1<br>
and 3) to issue high-level recommendations on how ICANN and the SO’s and<br>
AC’s could best operationalize the core value contained in the Human<br>
Rights Bylaw. These recommendations could include (a) chartering a GNSO<br>
Working Group on Human Rights to consider and recommend how the Bylaw<br>
should be taken into account in gTLD policy development and<br>
implementation, and/or (b) chartering Working Groups in each of the<br>
other SO’s and AC’s for purposes relevant to their remit, and/or (c)<br>
chartering a new CCWG on Human Rights to specifically consider the steps<br>
needed to make the Bylaw operational, and provide guidance to each of<br>
the SO's and AC's on how they could incorporate the CCWG’s output in<br>
their processes, as well as discussing measures that could be adopted by<br>
ICANN, the corporation, with respect to its own internal human<br>
resources, employment, and contracting practices based on the Bylaw.<br>
<br>
We would like to bring these five options in front of the plenary, and<br>
we would greatly appreciate your thoughts on these and potentially other<br>
options.<br>
<br>
The Human Rights Subgroup wishes you a revitalizing festive season and<br>
we're greatly looking forward to completing our work in Workstream 2<br>
with you all in 2017.<br>
<br>
All the best,<br>
<br>
The CCWG Accountability Human Rights Subgroup<u></u><u></u></p>
