Global Public Interest
Global Public Interest (GPI) is a concept that is foundational to the formation of ICANN and its commitments; it is central to the Affirmation of Commitments, the ICANN Bylaws, and ICANN's Articles of Incorporation.[1]
History
In 2018, the ICANN Board identified the GPI as one of its 2019 operational priorities and carried it over to 2021. In September 2019, the Board published a discussion paper on a proposed GPI framework.
