Changes

'''SG''' stands for '''Stakeholders Group'''. The [[BGC WG|Board Governance Committee Working Group]] recommended the creation of SGs in its [[GNSO]] Improvements Report. The Board Governance Committee ([[BGC]]) created the Stakeholder Groups in order to enhance the creation of new constituencies as well as to add fillip to the growth of the GNSO participants. The main reason behind organizing the SGs was to eliminate any concern that would have otherwise been had due to the addition of new interest groups and new constituencies, as they would have led to an internal imbalance in the composition of the GNSO Council.<ref>[http://gnso.icann.org/en/improvements/stakeholder-process-en.htm GNSO Stakeholder Process]</ref>

'''Stakeholders Groups''' (SG) are the bodies that comprise the [[GNSO|Generic names Supporting Organization]], with each SG representing a different set of interests in the policy making process.
