Thank You for Your Hard Work at ICANN71

On behalf of the ICANN organization, I’d like to thank the community for your active participation in ICANN71. This was our fifth virtual meeting, and it is as important as ever to continue our work together despite the challenges posed by the pandemic. I’m grateful for your flexibility.

The planning and programming of an ICANN Policy Forum is determined by the community, and I hope you found the sessions productive. Key discussions about issues like global regulatory developments and working toward a multilingual Internet are crucial to our commitment to support the security, stability, and interoperability of the Internet. The work we undertake at these meetings requires your involvement and engagement to make progress possible.

I look forward to the community gathering again at the ICANN72 Annual General Meeting in October. The Board will make a decision on whether ICANN72 will be virtual or in-person in July.
