The GNSO Working Group Newcomer Open House Session returns on 5 April 2016 and we are pleased to invite you to participate. These informal sessions provide an ideal opportunity for participants to ask questions about the GNSO Policy Development Process and the specifics of taking part in a Working Group.
Of course, even though the open house sessions are intended for newcomers, anyone interested in brushing up their knowledge or looking for an opportunity to engage with others interested in GNSO policy development activities are welcome.
In order to encourage interaction, we strongly recommend that you look through the list of Reading Materials at the bottom of this announcement.
On the RSVP form, participants will be able to select items of interest chosen from three currently available categories:
- Policy Development A-Z
- Consensus Policy
- Working Group Guidelines
Join us to learn more about the GNSO and about how you can effectively participate in ICANN!
