ICANN50 in London, recognizes ICANN participants who have deeply invested in
consensus-based solutions, acknowledging the importance of ICANN's

The ideal recipient(s), ITRealms reports, must have served
in roles in multiple ICANN working groups or committees and collaborated with
more than one Supporting Organization and/or Advisory Committee in a
significant capacity.
According to ICANN, candidates for the award will
demonstrate at least five years of participation in the ICANN Community,
stressing that candidates will be evaluated by a panel of community members
appointed by the Chairs of each Supporting Organizations and Advisory
Committees using a merit-based point system evaluated against three criteria.
These, ICANN said, include demonstrated ability to work across community lines with
both familiar and unfamiliar ICANN Stakeholders with the aim of consensus
