Session Minutes:

The GAC Working Group on Under-Served Regions undertook its 4th regional capacity development workshop for the year during ICANN60.

The WG presented a schedule of its upcoming capacity development workshops as follows:

  1. Nepal, February 2018
  2. Puerto Rico, March 2018
  3. Senegal, April 2018
  4. Panama, June 2018

 The USR WG continues to use a pre-workshop survey to determine the needs of participants and develop a demand driven agenda and approach.  Additionally, a post-survey workshop is administered to evaluate the workshops in order to inform and improve future approaches.

 As part of the capacity development and outreach work with the ICANN Government Engagement (GE) and the Global Stakeholder Engagement (GSE) teams, the USR WG will provide support in the form of summary documents containing details of the various work streams, Policy Development Processes (PDPs), Cross Community Working Groups (CCWGs) and activities taking place in ICANN to assist GAC members from under-served regions with effective participation and engagement.

Additionally, the USR WG discussed the following documents for endorsement by the GAC:

  1. Capacity Development Evaluation Framework;
  2. Templates for Planning and Reporting on the Capacity Development workshops;
  3. The FAQ for delegation and re-delegation of ccTLDs

The USR WG appointed a new Co-Chair, Ms. Shelley-Ann Clarke Hinds, from Trinidad and Tobago.

 The USR WG called for volunteers to actively participate in the Policy Development Processes (PDPs) and Cross-Community Working Group (CCWG) work streams currently in progress; that is:

  • The new gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP, specifically Work Track 1 which is dealing with "Support for Applicants from Developing Countries".
  • Work by the Competition, Consumer Trust and Consumer Choice Review on developing country issues.
  • CCWG on New gTLD Auction Proceeds.
  • CCWG Accountability WS2 subgroup on Diversity.

The USR WG provided the GAC with an update on the Onboarding program. This is designed to facilitate orientation for newcomers as part of an overall effort to reduce barriers to participation."

The USR WG will start working with GAC Support Staff to prepare GAC responses to a questionnaire provided by ICANN Org to help inform an upcoming community consultation regarding ICANN Community travel support guidelines.
