You are invited to a webinar regarding the upcoming Review of the Generic
Names Supporting Organization (GNSO). This briefing will provide the
GNSOcommunity with information about the
GNSO review process, collect feedback from the community and answer
questions concerning this process.
The webinar will be recorded and available for those who may not be able to
join the session live.
Review of Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO)
The objective of the Review is to examine organizational effectiveness of
the GNSO, including its structure components (GNSO Council, GNSO Working
Groups, GNSO Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies). The review will be
tightly scoped based on objective and quantifiable criteria provided to the
independent examiner.
The work methods are expected to include the examination of documentation,
records and reports; outcomes from the 360 Assessment; and limited
interviews. The 360 Assessment is an online mechanism to collect and
summarize feedback from members of the GNSO community — a "self-review"
relative to objective and quantifiable criteria. Interested members of
other ICANN organizations, Board and staff also may offer feedback.
Relevant assessments of the Second Accountability and Transparency Review
Team 1 regarding the GNSO policy development process will be factored into
the review.
GNSO and community participation
Involvement of the GNSO community as well as input and participation from
the broader community are important components of this review process.
As discussed in GNSO Council meetings, the Structural Improvements
Committee (SIC) is requesting that a GNSO Review Working Party be assembled
to function as a liaison between the GNSO, the independent examiner and the
SIC, to provide input on review criteria and the 360 Assessment, coordinate
interviews and objectively supply clarification and responses to the draft
findings and recommendations. Once a final report is issued and the Board
takes action on it, as appropriate, the GNSO Review Working Party is
expected to coordinate with the GNSO community to prepare an Implementation
Plan and champion implementation of improvement activities. More
information about this will be provided shortly.
Review Criteria
Objective and quantifiable criteria will cover the following areas:
- Achievement of mission, compliance with agreed upon rules and processes
- Accountability and transparency to the public
- Membership processes and participation
- Structural support toward achievement of mission
- Governance and management: effectiveness of execution
- Quality and evaluation/measurement of outcomes
- Communication
- Effectiveness of implementation of prior review recommendations
