Resolution Text: 

Whereas, the community-wide Geographic Regions Review Working Group was formed by the Board to study and review the issues related to the definition of the ICANN Geographic Regions, consult with all stakeholders, and submit proposals for community and Board consideration relating to the current definition of the ICANN Geographic Regions.

Whereas, the Working Group comprised of representatives of the ALAC, ccNSO, GAC and GNSO developed a proposed charter to govern its work and the public comment forum produced comments generally supporting the charter and its work plans.

Whereas, the Working Group has addressed Board member requests to modify the original draft charter to ensure that the document clearly reflects the opportunity for full community participation in the effort and representatives of the NRO (acting for the ASO) have now also joined the effort.

Resolved (2009.06.26.03), the proposed charter of the Geographic Regions Working Group Version 4.5 dated 8 June 2009 is approved.
