About ICANN meetings

The Annual General Meeting (AGM) is the third meeting in ICANN’s annual cycle and is held in a hybrid format. Alongside the ongoing policy-making functions of the ICANN community, the AGM focusses on capacity-building and leadership activities alongside the seating of new ICANN Board members.

ICANN meetings provide a forum for learning about ICANN, advancing policy work, conducting outreach, exchanging best practices, conducting business, and engaging with the ICANN community, Board and organisation. They are designed to meet the needs of ICANN’s community groups, staff and newcomers.
