Overview & Background:

This award program seeks to recognize community members who have served in leadership roles in multiple ICANN working groups or committees and demonstrated collaboration with different supporting organizations and/or advisory committees.

ICANN hopes to acknowledge community participants who have (1) deeply invested in consensus-based solutions, (2) affirmed the importance of ICANN’s multistakeholder model for Internet governance, and (3) contributed in a substantive way to the higher interests of ICANN’s organization and its community. 

Candidates for the award will demonstrate at least five years of participation in the ICANN community. A panel of community members is being convened to help review all nominations and determine the best candidates for the first awards. Recipients for this award will be evaluated by a community selection panel with four primary criteria in mind, using a point-based system:

  1. Demonstrated multistakeholder volunteer service via working groups or committees - Maximum of 10 points.
  2. Demonstrated spirit of collaboration through engagement with other community members with the aim of consensus building - Maximum of 10 points.
  3. Demonstrated facilitator of dialogue and open discussion in a fair, cordial and collegial manner - Maximum of 5 points.
  4. Demonstrated additional devotional factors exhibited by time spent supporting ICANN's multistakeholder model and its overall effectiveness - Maximum of 5 points.

The first award recipient was announced in June 2014 at ICANN 50 - the ICANN Public Meeting in London. 

 

 Background Information

ICANN’s distinctive multistakeholder model brings together community members with different backgrounds and interests to work towards a joint goal: to ensure the security and stability of the Internet’s unique identifier systems. Due to the presence of so many different opinions and interests within ICANN’s policy-making structure, courtesy and collaboration are key. The Multistakeholder Ethos Award recognizes those ICANN participants who have deeply invested in consensus-based solutions and in the importance of ICANN’s multistakeholder model to Internet governance.

Next Steps:

Selected award recipients will be presented at ICANN 53 in Buenos Aires. Community members are critical to ICANN’s success, and ICANN is committed to recognizing them for their efforts through the Multistakeholder Ethos Award.
