WEBINAR: Briefing on 2nd Draft CCWG-Accountability Proposal

17 August 2015

In addition to the U.N. six languages, this content is also available in

The CCWG-Accountability published its 2nd Draft Proposal on Work Stream 1 Recommendations for 40-day public comment on 3 August 2015. Community feedback is requested on this draft proposal of proposed enhancements to ICANN's accountability framework that the CCWG-Accountability has identified as essential to happen or be committed to before the IANA Stewardship Transition takes place.

Community feedback will help the CCWG-Accountability to improve its proposal and carry on with next steps, including Chartering Organizations' endorsement of the CCWG-Accountability recommendations before it is submitted to the ICANN Board during or shortly after ICANN54 in Dublin in October 2015.

In order to brief the community on the contents of their 2nd Draft Proposal, the CCWG-Accountability co-Chairs hosted two identical briefing webinars on 4 and 7 August at different times to facilitate participation across time zones. To provide the community with an additional opportunity to ask questions, a repeat session will be held on:

  • 25 August from 18:00 – 20:00 UTC (time zone converter here)

The webinar will be conducted in English. Live interpretation services1 are available in Arabic, Chinese2, French, Spanish and Portuguese3.
