Welcome to the home page of the Board/GNSO EWG Process Working Group (EP-WG).

As the ICANN Board considered how to use the EWG’s Final Report as a foundation for Board-requested GNSO Policy Development Processes (PDPs), this informal group of GNSO Councilors and ICANN Board members was assembled to suggest next steps on the EWG Report and how to best structure the PDP for success. The output of this group - a Process Framework for the PDP - was published in April 2015, adopted by the ICANN Board on 26 May, 2015, and used as input to a new Issue Report, distributed for public comment in July 2015 and finalized on 7 October, 2015. The EP-WG's workplan and associated documents are further detailed below.
