Notes:

  • ICANN can meet it's strategic goals for inclusion and diversity through the implementation of services that embraces the various communities which have historically suffered from barriers of access.

  • ICANN should use caption technology for all its calls, meetings and presentations. This tool not only makes all ICANN activities and programs accessible to Deaf, blind and low vision consumers, but also the English only calls to be translated into multiple languages courtesy of Google translate. Having the captions available in English also helps people in the ICANN community whose first language is not English as most people can read English even if they can not speak or understand it.

  • Captioning technology review for conference calls (joint work between the two taskforces): https://community.icann.org/x/8xvxAg
  • Prioritization from the primary objectives for the taskforce – including an identification of the key short, medium and long term opportunities: https://community.icann.org/x/EcXhAg
  • The discussion has been furthered with key ICANN staff during the Accessibility Working Group meeting during ICANN 51: https://community.icann.org/x/kxvxAg

  • : From At-Large side, this recommendation has been completed. Its status depends on the progress from the ICANN Staff/Board side.
