Proposal
Features
The proposed OPEN Forum will be the first ALSes in Chinese-speaking at an ICANN meeting, thanks to the availability of simultaneous interpretation for Chinese (first time in ICANN history despite some unsuccessful pilots though). The Forum would enable Chinese participants to voice their views, with no more language barriers, on ICANN policies that are most relevant to the Chinese community and be a good opportunity for ICANN's global engagement project.

Logistically, we hope the Forum could be put into Beijing meeting general schedule. We suggest the Forum be scheduled immediately after the Welcoming Ceremony (8:30-10:00?) on Monday, for 2 hours, in a large on Monday or Thrusday in a room with the interpretation available. The time slot is important to us because many Chinese officials invited to address at the Welcoming Ceremony could stay on to join this Forum.
