[AFRI-Discuss] [AfrICANN-discuss] Call for a theme for the Joint AFRALO/AfrICANN Meeting at ICANN 54 Dublin

Thu Sep 17 08:26:18 UTC 2015

All, 
I support Seun's  proposal as those were my first line of thoughts.  Is it possible to view this from developing countries perspective instead of narrowing it to Africa only? Making it more general or broader considering ICANN Board's new proposal/response to the CCWG Accountability Public Comment.
"The impact of  IANA Transition and ICANN Accountability on Developing Economies" .......... or a better formulation by others.

We may look at any aspect(s) of the IANA Transition and the ICANN accountability that affect the DNS industry in developing countries, including users. 
How simple and clear or complicated are the proposals?  
Are there enough safeguards in the these proposals to prevent capture by one  or few internet stakeholder(s)? Region(s)? Group(s)?
Developing economies are largely government driven environment, particularly Africa, it showed up at the AFIGF during the presentation on IANA transition and accountability, the overarching question was "where does the government come into the Multi-stakeholder oversight equation?"Are we sure this has been fully and adequately addressed by the proposals vis a vice the NTIA requirements for the transition to happen.
These are some thought provoking questions I believe we should address in our communique on the proposed theme. Others may wish to raise more questions for the drafting committee.
My personal thoughts, please.
Mary Uduma

The experience of the 2 last joint meetings was so successful: Africawas the only one region in ICANN that expressed its position about thetransition and the accountability, and this was very well appreciated. Now thatthe process is at a culminant point, I think it will be so important that wemake our voice heard.    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tijani BEN JEMAA Executive Director Mediterranean Federation of Internet Associations (FMAI) Phone:  + 216 41 649 605 Mobile: + 216 98 330 114 Fax:       + 216 70 853 376 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------               De :afri-discuss-bounces at atlarge-lists.icann.org[mailto:afri-discuss-bounces at atlarge-lists.icann.org] De la part de SeunOjedeji
