15min | Review of our purpose and proposed activities - including proposal to change name of the WG to "At-Large Ad Hoc ICANN Access and Diversity Working Group" (see **rational in notes) proposed by Unlicensed user (GA)
| WG | - ** Proposed WG name change rational ** The defined target population for our WG's activities is "a very diverse group! I'm concerned that our efforts would become very diluted. My preference is for a WG to concentrate on disability issues - that is big enough in itself and with the larger group, we will have lots of competing interests. However, if it has to be looking at such a large group then the name should be changed to reflect this ie Access and Diversity WG.
Otherwise, there will be a case of mistaken identity." GA in email to CLO 07/02/14. - High level review and assessment of 'state of play'
- specific needs analysis
- planning priorities and opportunities
