ABOUT CCTLD NEWS | The ICANN82 ccTLD News Session aims to provide
updates, share insights, and facilitate discussions on topics relevant
to country code top-level domains (ccTLDs) and their operations.  The
ccTLD News Sessions have been a part of the ccNSO Members Meetings for
several years and have provided a global platform for both experienced
and new people to meet, share experiences and discuss ccTLD-related
aspects. The session will allow for both in-person and virtual
participation. Simultaneous interpretation will be available for
selected ccNSO sessions during the upcoming ICANN Public Meeting,
including the ccTLD News Session. Participants will be able to select
the language they wish to speak or listen to in Zoom. Languages
available will be English, French or Spanish.
