Coordination Policy-2</h1> <h3>Internet Coordination Policy-2</h3> <p class="lead"><span style="font-weight: 400;">ICP-2 was developed through ICANN鈥檚 Address Supporting Organization (ASO) assisted by APNIC, ARIN, and RIPE NCC.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The </span><a href="https://aso.icann.org/aso-ac/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">ASO Address Council (AC)</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> endorsed this document, and on 4 June 2001, it was accepted by the ICANN Board of Directors as a statement of the essential fundamental principles required for recognizing and evaluating new Regional Internet Registries (RIRs). </span></p> <p><a href="http://www.icann.org/icp/icp-2.htm">ICP-2: Criteria for Establishment of New Regional Internet Registries</a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Note, the ASO AC also functions as the </span><a href="https://www.nro.net/about/address-supporting-organization/the-nro-number-council/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Number Resource Organization Number Council</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> (NRO NC), and oversees the process of global IP address policy development.聽 It also advises the ICANN Board on policy issues relating to the operation, assignment and management of IP addresses and appoints two members to the ICANN Board of Directors.</span></p> <h3><strong>Request to update ICP-2</strong></h3> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In October 2023, the NRO Executive Council (EC) asked the ASO AC to establish and manage a process to update the ICP-2 document.聽This update will be conducted in consultation with each of the RIR and ICANN communities to enhance the RIR system’s accountability to the broader Internet community.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The update sets forth the core principles the ASO AC believes should be reflected in the next version of ICP-2. In addition to principles on governance, ecosystem, lifecycle, recognition and operation of RIRs, it also outlines principles for the potential ‘derecognition’ of an RIR if it fails to adhere to the criteria established in ICP-2.聽</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This draft represents the first major step in the ASO AC鈥檚 work of revising ICP-2.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">View the <a href="https://www.nro.net/policy/internet-coordination-policy-2/proposed-icp-2-version-2-principles/">PROPOSED ICP-2 (v2) PRINCIPLES document</a>.聽</span></p> <h3><strong>Request for feedback</strong></h3> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Please provide your feedback on the<a href="https://www.nro.net/policy/internet-coordination-policy-2/proposed-icp-2-version-2-principles/"> principles outlined.</a> You will be asked to rate each principle from 鈥楽trongly Disagree to Strongly Agree with room to provide comments on each principle and at the end of the document. Please note, the questionnaire is </span><b>not anonymous. </b>Your <span style="font-weight: 400;">name, email address, affiliation and responses will be published in a report.聽</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Provide your feedback by 6 December 2024:聽聽</span></p> <p><a href="https://ripe-ncc.typeform.com/icp-2"><b>https://ripe-ncc.typeform.com/</b><b>icp-2</b></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At this stage, comments are </span><b>solicited on the principles themselves</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, rather than specific amendments to the text of the document.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The ASO AC will incorporate the comments received to draft a revised version of the ICP-2 document to present to stakeholders for further feedback.</span></p> <h3><strong>Timeline</strong></h3> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The questionnaire will be open for input from Tuesday, 8 October to Friday, 6 December 2024. It will take around 7 to 10 minutes to complete.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Members of the ASO AC will be participating during RIR meetings to further discuss the community consultation and answer any questions you may have.</span></p> <h3><strong>RIR Sessions on ICP-2</strong></h3> <table> <tbody> <tr> <td><b>RIR Meeting/ Webinar</b></td> <td><b>Date</b></td> <td><b>Session</b></td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>LACNIC 42- LACNOG 2024</b></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Tuesday, 8 October 14.30 UTC</span></td> <td><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25Ncho11zcQ">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25Ncho11zcQ</a></td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>ARIN 54</b></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Friday, 25 October聽</span></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/live/UfYbQA3rVUI?t=5312s">https://www.youtube.com/live/UfYbQA3rVUI?t=5312s</a></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>RIPE 89</b></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Thursday, 31 October 16:00-17:30 (UTC +1)</span></td> <td><a href="https://ripe89.ripe.net/archives/video/1533/">https://ripe89.ripe.net/archives/video/1533/</a></td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>AFRINIC Webinar</b></td> <td>Wednesday 23rd October 9:00 AM UTC</td> <td><a href="https://afrinic.net/webinar-series-2"><span style="font-weight: 400;">AFRINIC Webinar series</span></a></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <h3><strong>More information</strong></h3> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><a href="https://aso.icann.org/aso-ac/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">ASO Address Council (AC)</span></a></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><a href="https://www.nro.net/about/address-supporting-organization/the-nro-number-council/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Number Resource Organization Number Council</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> (NRO NC)</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><a href="http://www.nro.net/about/rirs/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">RIR communities</span></a></li> </ul> <p class='last-modified'>Last modified on 25/11/2024</p> </div>  </div>  </div>  </div>  <footer role="contentinfo"> <div id="inner-footer" class="container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-3 col-xs-6 col-lg-2 footer-item contact-info"> <h4>Contact Us</h4> <div class="contact-info clearfix"> <p><a href="mailto:secretariat@nro.net"><b>secretariat@nro.net</b></a></p> <div class="social-media"> <a href="https://twitter.com/thenro?lang=en" target="blank"><i class="fa fa-twitter fa-2x"></i></a> </div>  <div class="site-info"> © 2024 The Number Resource Organization. </div> <p class='site-credit'>Site by <a href="https://ardesign.us" target="_blank">AR Design</a></p> </div> </div>  <div class="col-md-3 col-sm-6 col-xs-6 col-lg-2 footer-item footer-menu-column"> <h4>Information</h4> <div class="menu-footer-menu-container"><ul id="menu-footer-menu" class="menu"><li id="menu-item-29891" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-29891"><a href="https://www.nro.net/about/">About</a></li> <li id="menu-item-29886" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-29886"><a href="https://www.nro.net/accountability/">Accountability</a></li> <li id="menu-item-29887" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-29887"><a href="https://www.nro.net/internet-governance/">Internet Governance</a></li> <li id="menu-item-29888" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-29888"><a href="https://www.nro.net/technical-coordination/">Technical Coordination</a></li> <li id="menu-item-29889" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page current-page-ancestor menu-item-29889"><a href="https://www.nro.net/policy/">Policy</a></li> <li id="menu-item-29890" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-29890"><a href="https://www.nro.net/documents/">Document Archive</a></li> </ul></div> </div>  <div class="col-md-3 aso-logo"> <a href="http://www.aso.icann.org" target="_blank"> <img src="/wp-content/uploads/ASO-logo-79x199.png" alt="AFRINIC" class=""> </a> </div> </div>  </div>  </div>  </footer>  <script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.nro.net/wp-includes/js/dist/hooks.min.js?ver=2810c76e705dd1a53b18" id="wp-hooks-js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.nro.net/wp-includes/js/dist/i18n.min.js?ver=5e580eb46a90c2b997e6" id="wp-i18n-js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" id="wp-i18n-js-after"> /* <![CDATA[ */ wp.i18n.setLocaleData( { 'text direction\u0004ltr': [ 'ltr' ] } );
