Engagement
THe Global Stakeholder Engagement team raises awareness and understanding of ICANN’s role and remit, encourages participation in ICANN policy development and technical activities, and shares knowledge with ICANN stakeholders.
ICANN’s Government and Intergovernmental Organizations (IGOs) engagement team (GE) has been covering the discussions at the United Nations in New York since 2014. The GE also leads a multi-year educational effort, including regular workshops and seminars for diplomats as well as for relevant UN agencies, to provide factual information to the people negotiating Internet governance resolutions. The GE identifies potential avenues for collaboration on capacity-building activities for governments as part of a working plan with the ITU’s Development Sector (ITU-D); UNESCO on Universal Acceptance promotion; WIPO's Standing Committee on the Law of Trademarks, Industrial Designs, and Geographic Indications; the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development and United Nations Commission on Science and Technology for Development; and OECD through the Internet Technical Advisory Committee (ITAC).
In FY20, there were 350 engagement events and 100 capacity development events around the world.
