ICANN Policy Meeting

ICANN stands for Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers. It is the global organization for domain names. ICANN is based on the multi-stakeholder model. Within this model, policy is made for the Internet. Multistakeholder means that consensus is sought among all interest groups to arrive at policies that work for everyone.

Soon the 74th ICANN meeting will take place in The Hague. This is the first time since 2002 that this meeting will take place in the Netherlands. Due to the corona crisis, The Hague is also the first physical ICANN meeting since 2019. This makes the meeting extra special. Over 1,000 participants from all regions of the world are expected. ICANN meetings are open for everyone to attend. There are no costs associated with participation.
