We want to know what Dot Eco means to you!

That is why the Dot Eco team has launched a global policy development process to build a consensus for stewardship of the Dot Eco TLD. The process will seek to comply with the ISEAL Code of Good Practice for Setting Environmental and Social Standards.

Leading international organisations, companies and experts have been invited to participate in this open process, which is overseen by the Dot Eco Stakeholder Council.

THE .ECO POLICY DEVELOPMENT PROCESS

Taking place during 2009, this process will establish a long-term governance structure and a set of consensus-based principles for how to run Dot Eco.

There are three elements to the policy development process:

• Stakeholder Council
  This 8-12 member Stakeholder Council will guide the global policy development process for .eco.
• Public comment
  Public comment is open to the global community to help refine .eco policies in a collaborative and transparent way.
• Regional Meetings
  In person Regional Meetings around the world will gather direct regional input into Dot Eco policies and help make it truly global.

This process is being facilitated by the Meridian Institute, a non-profit based in Washington, DC that helps build consensus around sustainable development policy issues.
