Review of Actions items
· We'll share the document about Global Account again through the mailing list, and are asking the subgroup to provide input,
· Action (Nathalie) send a reminder to Chris Gift to send documentation to the subgroup about Global enrollment
· Action (Sebastien): send an email to the mailing list to summarize the discussion about role of ombuds office in collecting diversity data for those who missed the
last call, and get a conversation going on the mailing list
Review of Draft questionnaire - Diversity Questionnaire
- Finalization & sending to CCWG Plenary
- Reaching SO/AC
· Renata asking that question that was deleted be re-included
· Julie: questions 1 and 2 have been put back in
· Renata: I see that they were re-ordered, but are there, so this is good
· Rafik: there are comments from Corinne, let's see if we can incorporate those comments and finalize the questionnaire
· Julie: I agree with Corinne about question 4
· Renata: I think it is clear enough as it is written now Suggest to keep the question as it is.
· FIONA ASONGA 2: Yes we keep the question
· Amal Al-saqqaf: maybe we should remove it
· Sebatien: we don't need to be too specific. Suggest adding the following after the question: "How is it done?"
· Renata Aquino Ribeiro: I do not oppose a follow up question
· FIONA ASONGA 2: I agree with Sabastien's amendment
· Julie: that's fine, seems like a majority agrees with this suggestion
· Action (drafting team): amend the question 4 with the amendment discussed today, and give until Friday for the group to confirm we have reached consensus.
Strawman document: moving to initial report drafting
· Fiona: we are reformatting the strawman according to the template provided for the report. Asking the group to provide comments about the document.
· Renata: what is the deadline for this, and do we have a drafting team?
· Fiona: in terms of timing, the WS2 timeline is that we should start reviewing a 1st draft starting in February, so we are right on time if I manage to
circulate a document today. There are several elements from recommendation #12 that still need to be discussed. All comments from previous
discussions have been included in the report.
· Renata: we should discuss more the suggestion to use the office of ombudsman, and should use the month of February to discuss also the
other components that we haven't yet discussed.
· Rafik: to clarify, we haven't had a detailed discussion about the office of diversity. We need to have this discussion, which is why we have an
action item about that.
· Renata Aquino Ribeiro: I'd be quite clear we need to address the need for a diversity office in ICANN. And how it can work w/ current structures like
ombudsman office and this group.
· Dalila Rahmouni: Yes we need to see all the options for the office
· Renata: we should think about the visa problem, the problem of accessibility, remote participation, and broad inclusion.
AOB
· Rafik: We are scheduling the next calls for February, invitations will come out soon.
