The Middle East Strategy was developed in 2013 by the Middle East Strategy Working Group.[1][2]
The goals of ICANN and its formulation of the MEWSG were to achieve the following in the MEAC region:[2]
The goal of ICANN was to achieve the following in the MEAC region:[2]
- Foster two-way engagement between ICANN and the Internet community
- Build up the local domain name industry
- Promote multi-stakeholder Internet governance mechanisms
Strategic Plan
After formulating the Middle East Strategy Working Group (MEWSG), a more robust strategic plan was formulated, with three main focus areas: DNS security and stability, domain name industry, and Internet governance ecosystem. The following matrix summarizes objectives, recommendations, actions, and metrics in each area of focus.[2]
