Suggested Agenda

1. Introduction, welcome

2. An evolving Internet Political Ecosystem (Tarek)

3. Discussion of Challenges

1. distribution of IP address blocks (ITU - WTSA / Plenipot)
2. coordination of top level domains (ITU - WTSA allowing study groups on the nature of top level domains - what is allowed and what is not allowed.)
   1. Also WTO e-commerce agenda
3. part of a larger issue
   1. Tension between multi-lateral & multi-stakeholder fora.
      1. How do government stakeholders interact in ICANN and outside ICANN for example - geographical names @ top level
      2. WIPO; Collapse of the Enhanced Cooperation at CSTD; ITU WTDC is seeing the same discussions.
   2. How ICANN interacts with other organisations
      1. Eg. GSM Association MoU; Laws on Data Protection affect ICANN / ie. GDPR issue - through WHOIS has put Internet Governance right in the middle. Has ICANN failed to respect European Privacy Law?
   3. Challenge is the lack of sustained engagement.
      1. Laws on Cyber Security have been defined as Internet Governance by WSIS
      2. United Nations processes

4. Discussion
