Session Details
As ICANN has grown, Reviews have played a key role in assessing its continued accountability, transparency, and effectiveness. Over the past several meetings, the Board has heard from the ICANN community a strong interest in rethinking how these Review processes can evolve to meet the needs of the future. In this session, the ICANN Board will continue its dialogue with the community, focusing on the path ahead. Attendees will be encouraged to share their thoughts on what success looks like for an ongoing community dialogue, and how we can shape a sustainable Review process together.
This 60-minute engagement session led by Becky Burr and Alan Barrett will cover the topic of Reviews. Following a brief welcome by the Chair, community members will be able to engage with the Board on this special hot topic in preparation for the ICANN83 meeting in Prague in June 2025.
