ICANN Community

Since ICANN was formed in 1998, the Internet and the world have changed immensely. Adapting to these changes is critical for the health and effectiveness of ICANN.
Thinking ahead to 2018, what attributes and characteristics do ICANN's evolved, successful community structures and processes have? What do they look like?
Here are just a few examples of the many questions and suggestions that the community is considering in this area:
- Enable online collaboration to support distributed work for effective participation without physical attendance.
- Attract top talent to the ICANN community to enable a culture of excellence and expertise.
- How might the ICANN's multi-stakeholder model evolve to better support the growing and internationalizing Internet users and providers?
- How might the policy and decision-making processes and structures evolve to be more flexible, nimble, inclusive and responsive to growth and disruption?
