Dear all;
Due to current situation in my country Burundi, I
am in conditions which do not allow me to make
conveniently my contributions since last April
2015.
Briefly, I have fled the country between April and
June last year. I returned back end of June 2015
expecting that my storm was over. I spent just a
month in Burundi and I fled again for several
times up and down.
Last time as I have been keen informing you that I
shall meet you in ICANN-55 Meeting in Marrakech,
Morocco ; by surprise I was arrested home by the
National Police and the Presidential Police on
03.03.2016. One of my colleagues have sold me to
the Police in order to replace me in the GAC and
in all other Representations I am replresenting my
country in the region. The reason even why I
failed at the very last minute to attend
Marrakech. I was released on 10.03.2016 and they
have paid some amount of money to shoot me once I
am out and the Almighty God has saved me.
Briefly, this is my story and right now I am in a
safe place hidden.
Remember that I am not Politician and I do not
belong to any kind of political matter. During the
time I have spent in Spent in special police
station (Documentation) I was accused so many
things related to politics.
I am really under chock now.

Hi everyone,
We had the first call for the
CCWP-HR Research Sub Group on
the 4th of April. It was a
productive call, where we
decided how to go ahead with
our work and mandate.
The aim of this sub group is
two fold. The first is
visualizing, mapping and
documenting cases in which
ICANN is, and potentially
will, impact human rights. The
second is creating awareness
about the various ways in
which ICANN is impacting human
rights.
As one can imagine, this is a
complicated task and so the
group decided it was best if
we begin by looking at the
following areas as they are of
the highest priority as of
now. This sub group will focus
on providing research that
raises awareness and breaks
down the human rights impact
of ICANN.
The priority areas as of now,
with present volunteers are:
1. Visualizing and developing
the table prepared for the
Marrakech meeting (attached) :
Niels, Marillia
2. PDP new gTLD Subsequent
Procedures : http://gnso.icann.org/en/group-activities/active/new-gtld-subsequent-procedures
3. WHOIS PDP
4. New gTLDs (focussing on
angles of freedom of
expression, economic aspects)
: Gangesh, Marillia
In case you would like to work
on a specific issue that is
not listed above, you are more
than welcome to do so :)
Please indicate what specific
area you will be looking into
as that would help with
coordinating tasks within the
group.
I'd encourage all those
interested in human rights
work at ICANN to get involved
by volunteering to work on one
of the focus areas mentioned
above. We will divide micro
tasks within each area so
there is a clear understanding
of responsibilities and
timelines.
Please respond to this email
by the 8th of April. The next
Sub Group Call in on the 29th
of April and we are hoping to
have preliminary findings
circulated between groups by
the 20th.
In case of any further
questions or clarifications,
please feel free to get in
touch with me.
Best wishes,
Vidushi
