A gentle reminder! And kindly note the following :

structures, but should have a deep understanding of and concern for the
work being undertaken by ICANN, and an ability to think strategically,
globally, and creatively about the challenges inherent in the ICANN Strategy
Panels' mandate. Interested individuals should send their resume/CV to the
email addresses affiliated with each of the specialty areas by 29 July 2013.

ICANN Strategy Panels Launched

Strategy Panels Unveiled at ICANN 47 in Durban

15 July 2013

During today's opening ceremony of ICANN 47 in Durban, South Africa,
President and CEO Fadi Chehadé announced the creation of five new ICANN
Strategy Panels that will serve as an integral part of a framework for
cross-community dialogue on strategic matters. The ICANN Strategy Panels
will convene subject matter experts, thought leaders and industry
practitioners to support development of ICANN's strategic and operational
plans, in coordination with many other global players, and will be
comprised of up to seven members including the chair for an anticipated
one-year timeframe.

Designed to conduct work in critical strategic areas identified by the
community, Board and staff, the ICANN Strategy Panels will build on public
input being generated to inform a new, overarching vision and five-year
strategic plan, and subsequent operating plan, for the organization.
Advisory in nature, the ICANN Strategy Panels will report to Chehadé; will
operate in a manner consistent with ICANN's commitment to transparency and
accountability; and will channel all views, guidance and advice produced
into the standard community and Board processes that guide ICANN's
activities.

In its fourteen-year history, ICANN has grown to reflect a changing
landscape of continued innovation, interconnectedness, and unprecedented
growth in the DNS ecosystem, one that transcends groups and borders to
serve the public interest. Yet, the Internet is at a critical inflection
point as billions of new people are expected to join the global network in
the next few years and as the nature of its usage matures dramatically.
With this in mind, the ICANN Strategy Panels are expected to help catalyze
transformation and advance ICANN's role in the context of a dynamic,
increasingly complex global environment.

*Schedules and Operations*

The ICANN Strategy Panels will conduct their activities, starting in
September 2013, primarily online and through conference calls, although
face-to-face meetings are expected to take place according to the needs of
each panel. The ICANN Strategy Panels will also provide public updates on
their progress that will be linked to ICANN's overall strategic and
operational planning activities. Dedicated ICANN executive liaisons have
been assigned to and will support each of the ICANN Strategy Panels
throughout the process.

*Members and Objectives*

The ICANN Strategy Panels will focus specifically on identifier technology
innovation; ICANN's role in the Internet organizations' ecosystem; ICANN
multistakeholder innovation; the public responsibility framework; and the
role of ICANN in the future of Internet governance. Chairs who will lead
the panels in their respective concentrations and who will guide the panels
in their groundbreaking efforts have been identified; however, qualified
individuals interested in serving as committee members are still being
sought. Potential panel members need not originate directly from ICANN
structures, but should have a deep understanding of and concern for the
work being undertaken by ICANN, and an ability to think strategically,
globally, and creatively about the challenges inherent in the ICANN
Strategy Panels' mandate. Interested individuals should send their
resume/CV to the email addresses affiliated with each of the specialty
areas by 29 July 2013. Members will be selected by ICANN's President & CEO,
in coordination with each ICANN Strategy Panel Chair.
