GNSO Council Strategic Planning Session

The first GNSO Council Strategic Planning Session will be held 29 January 2018 to 31 January 2018 in Los Angeles, United States.

This will be a focused and dedicated face-to-face meeting in which the 21 elected Councilors of the GNSO Council, select ICANN Board Members, ICANN support staff, and GNSO liasions will work to develop a work plan for the year ahead.

Although the GNSO Council meets face-to-face at ICANN meetings three times per year, there has never been sufficient time to focus on long-term strategic planning. Accordingly, this is a new meeting that has been created to allow the Council to adhere to its new responsibilities as a part of the Empowered Community following the IANA transition.

First Meeting (Los Angeles 2018)

The agenda for the first meeting is structured as follows:

Day 1 - Focus on Roles and Remit of Council, Council Leadership, and Liaisons

Day 2 - Focus on the Role and Responsibilities of the GNSO Council in the Empowered Community

Day 3 - Focus on 2018 Strategic Planning, Workload Management, and Objectives
