[APAC-Discuss] Uncharted Domains and the New Land Rush: Indigenous Rights to Top-Level Domain

Fri May 10 00:27:24 UTC 2013

Hi Rinala et all,

This is a positive step forward with so many Indigenous Peoples being
effected whom have no voice.

Eric Brunner-Williams from NARLO is a leader in this area who was also
prominently featured in the research. I am certainly keen to initiate and
contribute for APRALO and do what ever else I can to assist.

Cheers,

Karaitiana Taiuru

Hi, KT.

The unrecognized/under-recognized IP of special groups including those of
indigenous communities was one of the 4 initial issue areas that I
identified for the APRALO Multistakeholder Policy Roundtable in Beijing - we
did not have sufficient capacity to deal with the issue then.

I am really glad that you are bringing this issue up now and it would be
fantastic if the region mobilizes and takes the leadership on it. But we
need a driver for the issue and I am hoping that you would be willing to
take the lead (eg, initiating consultations, drafting statements if
applicable or contributing relevant sections in statements drafted by others
in the ALAC and in APRALO, etc).  I would be happy to discuss a strategy for
mobilization on this with you if you would find it useful. 

And yes, I agree that IP and IP related to IDNs are angles that the region
can pursue the issue.  

Best regards,  

Rinalia

A recorded history of the development of the Internet is a major issue in
many countries, because as you say, it is in peoples heads and personal
emails.

I am hoping there is enough interest within the RALO's to re investigate
some of these issues raised here, of Indigenous Peoples Intellectual
Property and sovereign nations. I suspect the IP could fit in well or
alongside the IP of IDN's?

Regards,
Karaitiana Taiuru

Hi KT - and others

First - the link to the actual research doesn't work.  Could you check it
please?

But the background does make Yan's research look very interesting.  And what
she is saying is so true for this area.  For much of the Internet, including
ICANN, the knowledge is not in libraries (including online libraries) or in
journals  It is on websites, it is in the heads of the people who are
involved - which makes it both more challenging and interesting.
