<span style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Internet landscape has changed significantly over the last two decades. The Number Resource Organization Executive Council (NRO EC), in conjunction with the Address Supporting Organization
Address Council (ASO AC), decided it was time to review and update the</span><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Internet

<span style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In October 2023, the Number Resource Organization Executive Council (NRO EC) asked the NRO Number Council (NRO NC), that fulfils the role of the Address Supporting Organization Address Council
(ASO AC), to establish and manage a process to update the ICP-2. Modification of ICP-2 requires an open and transparent process to allow participation from across the global RIR and ICANN communities.</span><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif"><o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In this webinar, Number Resource Organization Number Council (NRO NC) members, Hervé Clément, Andrei Robachevsky and Maemura Akinori will showcase the progress achieved so far in the ICP-2 Review.
The session will also provide an introduction to the draft version of a document that aims to update ICP-2: Criteria for Establishment of New Regional Internet Registries. This updated document is titled "Governance Document for the Recognition, Maintenance,
and Derecognition of Regional Internet Registries".</span><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span></o:p></span></p>
