These were for Nomcom Review comments, NomCom Rebalancing, Policy and prioritisations of ICANN projects, Operational Policies, Multi-stakeholder Policies and comments, Constituency Travel comments, Several Budget Public Comments, Auction Proceeds, dot.org and many others. I have also submitted comments to many other ALAC policy comments as well on accessibility issues, specifically for persons with disabilities. I have also submitted several individual comments as well to ICANN. I developed and fought to have captioning available for working groups and other At Large Meetings and it is due to my determination in this area that many of the constituencies have captioning as they had gotten a taste of how helpful it is during one of the pilots I had run from 2015-2019 when it became part of the core budget of ICANN at least for At Large. I also have advocated having captioning for all ICANN Learn videos as well as all presentations to ensure all who want to engage and participate are able to do so on equal footing. I have also worked to increase the capacity of the ICANN Finance team how to improve their work and presentations to make them more accessible to all users. I have spoken on Internet Governance at several technology conferences some sponsored by ICANN and some not, for example I was a featured speaker at NTEN talking about Internet Governance, also at the North American School Of Internet Governance. |
