> Dear NCSG members,
>
> Following the discussions on the list and two calls (on August 5th and
> August 14th) on the matter of what was first termed the “constituency
> merger,” the three executive committees (NCSG, NCUC, and NPOC, hereafter
> collectively “the Leadership”) have decided to issue a call for volunteers
> for a Strategic Review Working Group.
>
>
>
> SCOPE
>
> The tasks of the Working Group will be the following:
>
> 1.       Conduct a thorough fact-finding operation aimed at identifying
> the problems related to, among other things, low engagement of the
> membership in policy activities, effective use of stakeholder group
> financial and “benefit” resources (such as travel slots), the number of
> administrative positions, effective representation of NCSG and its
> constituencies in other ICANN bodies. The Working Group will be free to
> collect its own data, in the form of interviews or polls of the membership,
> for example, and need not limit itself to what has been discussed so far
> both on the mailing list and during calls. In that sense, the problems
> listed here are examples drawn from the discussions, but the aim of the
> Working Group should be that of a thorough survey.
>
> 2.       Identify, to the best of its abilities, the causes for such
> problems.
>
> 3.       Provide a clear and detailed pathway to solutions that will
> remedy those problems by acting upon the causes. If necessary, depending on
> the magnitude of the changes implied, solution proposals shall be
> accompanied by a transition plan with a detailed timeline.
>
>
>
> COMPOSITION
>
> The Strategic Review Working Group will be composed of NCSG members in
> good standing. The Leadership will strive to have an equal number of NPOC
> and NCUC members, with representation from unaffiliated NCSG members as
> well, mindful of gender balance. To the extent possible, the Leadership
> will try to ensure geographic diversity as well. The Leadership aims for
> between six and ten members in total.
>
> The qualifications required are (a) demonstrated commitment to the work of
> NCSG or its constituencies, in the form of policy, administrative, or
> outreach work and (b) good knowledge of NCSG charter and NCUC Bylaws and
> operating procedures or NPOC charter. Selection of candidates will be
> undertaken by the Stakeholder and Constituencies Leadership.
>
> We invite those of you who have already expressed their interest in
> joining this effort to submit your application.
>
> Applications should be submitted by 23:59 UTC, seven business days after
> this call is published on the NCSG list (not counting the day of the
> publication,) to chair at ncsg.is.
>
>
>
> PROCEDURES AND DELIVERABLES
>
> The Working Group will be responsible to elect its own Chair.
>
> All three elements above will be formulated in the form of a final report
> that will be presented to the whole membership. Its factual findings will
> be subject to full consensus, while the rest of the report, especially the
> solutions, may consist of options or alternatives.
>
> Indeed, given that the implementation of the report is up to the
> Leadership – and potentially to the membership - the final report is not
> subject to the prior approval of the Leadership, nor is it subject to a
> vote.
>
> The Working Group is expected to provide regular updates to the membership
> as to the fulfillment of its tasks.
>
> All communications of the Working Group will take place on a dedicated and
> publicly archived mailing list, and its calls will be recorded and the
> recordings made available to the membership.
>
>
>
> TIMELINE
>
> The Leadership will finalize its selection five business days following
> the close of the call. Once the composition of the Working Group will have
> been announced, the Leadership will supervise the Chair selection process,
> which should take place within five business days.
>
> The Working Group is then expected to hold (biweekly) calls and complete
> its fact finding by 31 December 2020. The final report should be delivered
> no later than 31 January 2021.
