More than 40 diverse practitioners, subject matter experts and thought
leaders have been working together since October 2013 as members of the
ICANN Strategy Panels to support development of ICANN's strategic and
operational future.

Strategy Panels are advisory in nature and report to the ICANN President and
CEO. Their quintessential objective is to inform and support ICANN's
planning process. As highlighted at the opening ceremony at ICANN's public
meeting Durban (July 2013), the Strategy Panels' work and output is designed
to be informative and will not go straight to implementation.

Each of the four panels has now published its draft recommendations, which
are being translated into the five additional UN languages and are open for
public comment 
<http://www.icann.org/en/news/public-comment/strategy-panels-25feb14-en.htm>
. The recommendations are varied and wide-reaching, from partnering in a
study to define an architectural vision for DNS in 2020 to organizing
participants by topic rather than constituency groups to adapting ICANN's
cultural to a multi-lingual and multi-cultural one. Highlights of
recommendations by each panel are included below. For more information,
please refer to each panel's draft report.

vision for DNS in 2020.

> * Using expert networks to provide oversight to ICANN officials.

Share your thoughts today! We encourage you to review each draft report and
provide your perspective by sending your comments to the email address for
each panel's mailing list. Input will be welcome through 30 April 2014; all
input sent to the mailing lists is publicly archived. Each panel will
consider feedback received before finalizing their reports, so make your
voice heard.

To support community consideration and input, an interactive webinar will be
held in early March 2014. A public session also will be conducted at the
upcoming ICANN 49 meeting in Singapore (March 2014). Details will be shared
in due course. Public comments and output will help inform ICANN's strategic
and operational plans.
