The CWG is currently in formation. To date, ALAC, ccNSO, GNSO, and SSAC have adopted the charter, and are in the process of appointing members. 

Participating in the CWG is open to members and observers. In addition to members, who are appointed by the chartering organizations, anyone interested in the work of the CWG, can join as an observer. Observers will be able to actively participate and attend all meetings; however, any consensus calls or decisions that need to be made will be limited to CWG members appointed by the chartering organizations. Observers may be from a chartering organization, from a stakeholder group not represented in the CWG, or self-appointed.

How to join

If you are interested in joining, please contact Grace Abuhamad (grace.abuhamad@icann.org), or the secretariats of your Supporting Organization or Advisory Committee. All participants (members and observers) will be listed on the CWG’s webpage. All observers are also required to submit a Statement of Interest (SOI) following the procedures of their chartering organization, or where that is not applicable for observers, the GNSO Procedures should be followed (see https://community.icann.org/x/cYLg).
