Internationalized Domain Names and their Universal Acceptance

[Panel] The session will start with a presentation on the findings of the UNESCO internationalized Domain Name (IDN) World Report 2018 – https://idnworldreport.eu/. It will then discuss the status and challenges of enabling and using IDNs, with a focus on the domain names and email addresses in Arabic script. The panelists will cover the community work towards developing standards to make IDNs secure, enabling their variant labels to promote international access, and encouraging their universal acceptance across different platforms and applications to promote their wider use. Panelists will also discuss how the wider community can contribute to the ongoing work in this area.
