Markus Kummer at Public Forum 2 mentioned that ICANN has standards of behavior regarding sexual harassment that are applicable for its staff.
In light of that statement, CIS requested ICANN to publish the following information:
- Information about the individual or organization conducting ICANN’s sexual harassment training
- Materials used during this training
- ICANN’s internal sexual harassment policy
The request filed by Padmini Baruah can be found here.
What ICANN said
ICANN’s response answered our questions adequately. The organization conducting their sexual harassment training is NAVEX Global. It is an interactive online training and as such, all materials are within that platform. Besides, ICANN could not publish these materials as it would be an infringement of NAVEX Global’s intellectual property right. ICANN also attached with the response, their internal sexual harassment policy.
ICANN's response to our DIDP request (and the attached policy document) may be found here.
