<br />

A [[~~Multistakeholder Model~~]] is an ~~organizational framework or structure which adopts~~ the ~~multistakeholder~~ process ~~of governance or policy making, which aims~~ to ~~bring together the primary stakeholders such as businesses, civil society, governments, research institutions~~ and ~~non~~-~~government organizations~~ to ~~cooperate~~ and ~~participate in the dialogue~~, ~~decision making~~ and implementation of solutions to common problems or goals. A stakeholder refers to an individual, group or organization that has a direct or indirect interest or stake in a particular organization; that is, ~~a given action has the ability to influence the organization's actions, decisions and policies to achieve results~~.

The [[New TLD contracting]] page is an outline of the Contracting process for [[New gTLD Program|New gTLD]] applicants as defined by [[ICANN]]. It is our goal to supplement this with actual contracting timelines and action items that are encountered by new [[TLD]] applicants. The document walks through pre-delegation testing, transition to [[IANA]] and delegation, [[Registry]] onboarding, and real-life applicant examples, among other steps. <br /><br />
