At-Large Activities at the 2025 Universal Acceptance Day
To promote the awareness and adoption of Universal Acceptance (UA) of all domain names and email addresses, ICANN and the community are organizing the third global Universal Acceptance (UA) Day on or around 28 March 2025, between 1 March till 31 May 2025.
Proposals should be submitted via the UA Day Event Proposal Form available at https://universalacceptance.day no later than 11 October 2024.
UA Day events will consist of awareness-building, technical capacity building and strategy formulation sessions. UA Day was established in 2023 as an opportunity to engage and rally technical and language communities, businesses, governments, and Domain Name System (DNS) industry stakeholders to better understand the benefits of UA and how to make their own systems UA-ready, and it attracted more than 15,000 participants worldwide across dozens of countries on six continents since then.
UA can only be achieved by working together with various stakeholders. We value your contribution to UA Day events and hope you'll join us in building an #Internet4All at UA Day 2025!
If you have any questions, please contact us at uaprogram@icann.org.
