Explanation: The draft translation programme that will be used by ICANN 
to communicate and interact with non-English speakers has been put out 
for community comment today.

You can review it here in:

??????? | ?? | Français | English | Español | ???????

The programme has two main aims: to inform people about ICANN as an 
organisation, including its history, processes, component parts and 
evolution; and to allow people to participate effectively in the 
organisation’s ongoing decision-making and policy work.

The mission of the programme is to provide those who are not fluent 
English speakers with an equal level of access to influence and 
participate in the work of the organisation.

Following community input, the programme will be redrafted as necessary 
and put into a Final Report. The intention at this stage is to send the 
programme to the Board for review and/or approval at the Paris meeting 
in June.

A full transcript of the public meeting held in New Delhi on Wed 13 Feb 
regarding this programme is also available.
