[council] For your review - proposed Council response to CCWG-Accountability-WS2 - The Diversity Sub-Group of WS2 seeks your input on Diversity

[Marika Konings]

Dear All,

As discussed, please find attached for your review a draft response to the survey prepared by the CCWG-Accountability WS2 – Diversity sub group. The draft responses are from the perspective of the Council / GNSO Working Group perspective, prepared by staff in collaboration with the Council leadership team. As noted in the response, it is the expectation that SG/Cs will complement these responses with information from their respective groups.

You are encouraged to share any comments and/or edits on this draft with the Council mailing list by 26 May at the latest. The CCWG-Accountability has requested to receive this input by 1 June, so this would provide the Council leadership with sufficient time to assess what updates, if any, need to be made, and/or whether further discussion is needed prior to submission.

Best regards,

Marika

Dear Chairman Steve Crocker, CEO Goran Marby, NomCom Chair Hans Petter Holen and SO/AC Chairs,

As you are aware, the newly-adopted ICANN bylaws tasked our Cross Community Working Group to investigate several issues as part of our Work Stream 2 effort.  Diversity is one of these items. As part of this effort, we have set up a subgroup, responsible for reviewing how diversity is accommodated, supported and promoted within ICANN and to make recommendations to enhance diversity efforts.

As part of this work, the group intends to inform itself by an assessment of the current situation. That’s why we are turning to you to provide input and point us to any resources and documents related to diversity in your respective group or designated community, taking into account the particular or specific working modalities of each group.

We would appreciate if you could provide responses to the attached questions
​by 1 June​ 23:59UTC
, so that work on this important item of WS2 can proceed as quickly as possible. Responses can be provided to
​​
​ws2-diversity-questionnaire at icann.org<mailto:ws2-diversity-questionnaire at icann.org>

Along with the rapporteurs of the Diversity subgroup, Fiona Asonga and Rafik Dammak, we thank you in advance and remain available for any clarification that you may need.

Best regards,
Leon, Thomas & Mathieu
