That ICANN define “cultural diversity” and that relevant metrics (encompassing geographic, gender, age group and cultural, possibly by using birth language) be monitored and published. |
| Working Party (initial assessment of feasibility and usefulness): | CG - Accept with modification: Such metrics should be used with caution, understanding that it may be impossible in some cases to have broad demographic representation. The RySG is an example of this; members must have a gTLD registry agreement with ICANN and to date there have not been many gTLD registries from at least two of ICANN’s geographic regions. |
|---|---|
| Staff (initial assessment of feasibility and usefulness): |
Rationale: MK: Accept as-is, although it would be helpful to define who 'ICANN' is in this context. Is the ICANN Board expected to undertake this initiative with the involvement of all SO/ACs? Is this expected to be a staff-led effort? |
| Basis for Assessment: | |
| Work in Progress: | CCWG-Accountability has had recent discussions on the topic of diversity (see http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/wp3/2015-July/000019.html). |
