Description
In late 2019, the APRALO Leadership Team proposed the initiation of an APRALO Policy Platform for 2020. After reviewing input from RALO members to the proposal and in light of the unexpected COVID-19 pandemic, the Leadership Team considers this APRALO Policy Forum to be a modest but useful kickstart to facilitate and coordinate ICANN policy-related discussions at a regional level.
Purpose:

Background: At its May 2021 meeting, the GNSO Council resolved to initiate the Expedited Policy Development Process on Internationalized Domain Names (EPDP on IDNs) and to approve the EPDP Team Charter. The Council agreed that an EPDP was appropriate and needed to address the topic of IDNs because policy in IDNs has been "substantially scoped previously such that extensive, pertinent background information already exists", which includes the IDN-related Outputs from the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP that the Council had approved on at its February 2021 meeting. The EPDP on IDNs has been structured as a "Representative + Open" model and a call for members, participants and observers was made by the GNSO Secretariat on 3 June 2021. At-Large Staff then issued a call for At-Large member expressions of interest for the ALAC Appointee Selection Committee to consider and to select 3 members to represent the ALAC on this EPDP.
To encourage APRALO Members (both ALS Members and Individual Members) with an interest in IDNs to respond to both the At-Large call for members and the GNSO's call for participants and observers volunteers to this EPDP on IDNs, the APRALO Policy Forum Co-Chairs Satish Babu and Justine Chew are spearheading the organization of an introductory APRALO Webinar on IDNs to help build the capacity of our RALO members to engage meaningfully in the work of this EPDP.
In service of this goal, the webinar will be held on Tuesday, 27 July 2021 at 08:00 UTC for 90 minutes and will, among other things, broadly address the following:
- When IDNs were introduced to the Root Zone
- The landscape of IDNs in the APAC region
- Existing policies and procedures on IDNs including the Root Zone Label Generation Rules (RZ-LGRs) in addressing security/confusability in IDNs
- An overview on IDN Variant TLD management (in context of the ICANN Board's 2010 resolution on need for variant management solution to be in place prior to next round of New gTLDs)
- An overview on the GNSO Subsequent Procedures policy recommendations for the next round of IDN New gTLD applications
- Background to the EPDP on IDNs
Status: Completed. A recording of the webinar, along with speaker presentations are available at https://community.icann.org/x/x4n8CQ
