Hi,
I totally have to agree with Marilia here. This is a political economy question, hence it needs to be addressed at policy decision level (if only in addition to other types of provisions.)
Once upon a time way before the development of the current policy for new gTLDs was completed, a few of us (Avri included) then at the GNSO Council were pushing for a similar or closely related agenda. At the time the focus was on the cost of new gTLD application and other entry barriers to the registry industry, which might weigh heavier beyond feasibility on developing regions' potential applicants. The proposal for a funds-in-trust emerged at that time to help lower the costs for such applicants (Avri may rectify in case I'm being abused by my memory.) While I haven't been able to keep up with the detail of the current situation in that regard, the question being raised by Marilia is in line with the same agenda, I would think.
Thanks,
Mawaki
