Thanks, Tomslin. As the Issue Report Request form goes to the GNSO Council for its consideration, the Council could decide to further consider this question at that point to see if it is possible to make a determination or gather further information. Alternatively, it could also decide to await the publication of the Issue Report, which is also expected to make this assessment, to determine what further steps, if any, may need to be taken, either in the form of information gathering or as part of the chartering of a working group that is expected to further consider the impact on HR of any recommendations that may come out of the process.

In short, there is not one anticipated action, but something the Council will need to consider on a case by case basis.

Best regards,

Marika

Hi Marika,

Thank you, this is great work by the CCOICI team.

I only have a little question on the text put in the Issue Report Request form. Question 8 says: 8) Please indicate if consideration of the Issue is expected to have an impact on human rights 1 (Enter ‘yes’, ‘no’, ‘not sure’, as applicable)

What is the anticipated action in a case where 'not sure' is the answer to the question?

Warmly,
Tomslin

Dear All,

Following the Council’s adoption of the CCOICI’s WS2 Recommendations Report, the staff support team has worked on:

“In relation to 3 (Framework of Interpretation for Human Rights), the GNSO Council directs GNSO Staff Support to work on a proposed implementation of the recommendations, consulting relevant community experts as needed. This proposed implementation is to be reviewed and approved by the GNSO Council before implementation”;

As a result, you will find attached updated versions of:


  *   The request for an Issue Report template;
  *   The Preliminary Issue Report template (proposed updates on page 6-7);
  *   The PDP WG Charter Template (proposed updates on page 2-3), and;
  *   The PDP WG Initial Report template (proposed updates on page 7).

Each of these documents have been updated with a set of check-list questions that, as recommended by the CCOIC would provide a lightweight mechanism to assess whether an impact to human rights is likely or expected as a result of the consideration of a specific topic and/or the related recommendations. Flagging potential impact on human rights at an early stage in the process will assist in focusing attention on this topic throughout the deliberations as well as allowing for a more detailed human rights impact assessment, if an impact is expected or established.

As you may note, a link is provided to a resource page that is managed by ICANN org where additional materials are available that may aid both staff as well as community in its consideration of the potential impact on human rights (see https://community.icann.org/x/RAPCCw). As further materials are developed, for example, work is underway on an ICANN Learn training on inclusion which is expected to present examples of protected groups, these will get added.

It is also important to keep in mind that these documents are templates – it does not prevent further elaboration and/or guidance if deemed necessary either by Council or community working groups.

A special thanks to Ephraim Percy Kenyanito for the original input he provided to the CCOICI as well as his review of and feedback on these templates.

Please provide any comments or suggestions you may have by 7 June at the latest. If additional time is needed, please do not hesitate to let us know as well.

Best regards,

Ariel, Julie and Marika
