Hi Sam,
Am not sure where you saw a reference to the CCWP as a WG. The CCWP has
three Sub Groups (1. ICANN and human rights research, 2. human rights in
ws2 and 3. human rights in PDPs), as also documented on the wiki:
https://community.icann.org/display/gnsononcomstake/Subgroups
Hope this creates a bit more clarity.
All the best,
Niels
