SUMMARY:ICANN 78 Annual General Meeting Hamburg \, Germany
DESCRIPTION:Annual General Meeting (AGM)\nThe Annual General Meeting (AGM) is the third meeting in the three-meeting annual cycle\, typically held in October or November. The duration of the AGM is six days\, running from Saturday through Thursday. \nThe AGM includes time for internal SO/AC work and cross-community interaction\, but the overall focus is to showcase ICANN’s work to a broader global audience\, with more time dedicated to capacity building and leadership training sessions. The AGM is also where new members of the ICANN Board of Directors take their seats. \nWho should attend?\nICANN meetings are all about participation\, collaboration\, and finding solutions to the small – and large – problems that the Internet constantly faces. The meetings are free and open to anyone who wishes to participate. \nAs a meeting participant\, you could be from almost any profession and from any corner of the planet. ICANN is set up to allow everyone affected by its work – and that is pretty much everyone – to have a say in its processes. \nTo ensure that the organization stays flexible and changes to meet the needs and demands of a rapidly changing Internet\, not only do the SOs\, ACs\, and the Board go through regular reviews\, but ICANN also maintains a strong culture of general public participation. \nTypical attendees include government representatives\, business managers\, IT managers and consultants\, DNS industry managers and experts\, intellectual property managers\, academics\, and others invested in the continuing stable\, secure and resilient operation of the Internet. End users are also well represented.\nIf you cannot physically attend a meeting\, ICANN offers a variety of services to ensure that the power of participation is just a click away.

SUMMARY:ICANN 77 Policy Forum\, Washington DC
DESCRIPTION:Policy Forum\nThe Policy Forum is the second meeting in the three-meeting annual cycle\, typically held in June\, with a duration of four days\, Monday through Thursday. \nThe Policy Forum is dedicated to policy development work of the Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees (SO/ACs)\, and regional outreach activities. The Policy Forum is generally smaller than other meetings and the shortened agenda has\, no public forums\, and no board meetings. \nInternet policy is developed by the ICANN community’s bottom-up\, consensus-based policy-making structure. Three groups at ICANN are responsible for developing Internet policy and making recommendations to the ICANN Board: The Address Supporting Organization (ASO)\, Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO)\, and Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) which is the largest policy-making organization in ICANN. The GNSO’s Policy Development Process (PDP) is a detailed bottom-up\, multi-stakeholder process that invites global participation and depends on the Internet community’s input for success. The Policy Forum is an important opportunity for PDP working groups to advance their work in face-to-face meetings with the broader community.

SUMMARY:ICANN75 	Annual General Meeting (24th)
DESCRIPTION:About\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nICANN Meetings have been central to ICANN’s multistakeholder model since its formation in 1998. They provide a venue for learning about ICANN\, advancing policy work\, conducting outreach\, exchanging best practices\, conducting business deals\, and interacting with members of the ICANN community\, Board\, and organization. \nDesigned to meet a diverse range of needs for ICANN’s Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees (SO/ACs)\, staff\, and newcomers alike\, an average ICANN Meeting accepts more than 350 submissions to schedule in twelve simultaneous sessions spanning four to six days. \nMeeting Strategy\nThe current strategy for ICANN’s triannual meetings was developed by the Meeting Strategy Working Group (MSWG) and adopted by the ICANN Board in 2014. The MSWG was a cross-community Working Group created by the ICANN Board to look into all aspects of the ICANN Meetings. The group made proposals for changes to meeting timing\, duration and format\, rotation of the meeting location\, meeting support and engagement activities\, and meeting planning. \n Learn More about the Meeting Strategy or Download the Final Report. \nWhere and when do ICANN meetings take place?\nICANN meetings are held three times each year in different regions of the globe to enable attendees from around the world to participate in person. Each ICANN Meeting held throughout the year has a different focus and duration. The meetings are known as Community Forum\, Policy Forum\, and Annual General Meeting (AGM).\nYou can see the list of the dates and locations for past and upcoming ICANN meetings at http://meetings.icann.org/calendar.
