<p>ICANN59 in Johannesburg, South Africa, will be ICANN's second ever Policy Forum. This four-day meeting will be focused on policy and advice development work, as well as outreach activities.</p>
<p>ICANN will be holding an informational webinar on Tuesday, 16 May 2017, at 1600 UTC to provide the community with a full update on ICANN59, including information on logistics, accommodations and travel. Details on the meeting schedule for Johannesburg will
also be shared during the webinar, as well as being posted on the <a href="https://meetings.icann.org/en/johannesburg59">
ICANN59 meeting website</a>.</p>
<p>The Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees (SO/ACs) have taken the lead in organizing the meeting's program. As a reminder, there will be no official opening ceremony and no public forums, but networking receptions held each night will allow participants
to interact outside of work sessions. Mornings will be dedicated to individual and joint sessions of the Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees, and afternoons will feature cross-community sessions exploring a variety of topics, including ongoing
policy development efforts.</p>
<p>The call is open for all to attend. The presentation and recording will be posted shortly after the conclusion of the webinar.</p>
<p>While we understand that there is a short notice period for this call, we wanted to hold the call as soon as feasible and allow people to listen to the recording when convenient for them. If you have questions, but are unable to attend, please email them
to <a href="mailto:engagement@icann.org">engagement@icann.org</a>. We will answer submitted questions during the call as best we can, which you can then listen to once the recording has been posted to the ICANN site.</p>
