  4. Discussed the formation of an agenda for the PPC’s session with the public in Nairobi. The PPC members agreed that use of remote participation, reminders on the document deadline policy, and an introduction to the PPC’s work to create a holistic approach to public participation within ICANN, are all appropriate topics for inclusion. The PPC also agreed that Nairobi is an appropriate venue to focus on the particular needs of participants from developing countries. The PPC agreed that ICANN’s advisory committees and sponsoring organizations, particularly the ALAC, have valuable experience and knowledge in fostering participation, and their input and participation in the PPC public session should be actively invited and encouraged. Staff confirmed that the session would be scheduled to minimize agenda conflicts.
