GNSO Outreach - further development and next steps

What is it about:    The Council has considered motions on this recently; no agreement has been found. As the original request to work on a set of recommendations on a global GNSO outreach program came from the ICANN Board, the Council leadership feels an answer should be provided.

Background information:    As part of the GNSO improvements, the Operations Steering Committee (OSC) sent to Council recommendations for a Global Outreach Program and Outreach Task Force (OTF). The OTF Drafting Team presented a draft charter to the GNSO council for approval. This motion as well as an alternative one have been defeated.

This debate touches the question whether the responsibility of setting guidelines for outreach lies in the scope of the OTF rather than it should be in scope of the Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies.

It will also be driven by the ICANN staff initiative for an Outreach Dialogue in Prague.
