On June 24, 2021, Director of the Domains & Jurisdiction Program Elizabeth Behsudi presented resources from the I&JPN Toolkit on DNS-Level Action to Address Abuse, to the Government of Canada.
The I&JPN Toolkit, provides information on preserving the internet's technical layer when applying DNS level action to address abuses.

The event also brought together stakeholders active in the domains industry to share insights on key issues including abuse frameworks and trusted notifiers.
Panelists included:
• Elizabeth Behsudi, Director, Domains & Jurisdiction Program, I&JPN
• Brian Cimbolic, Vice President, General Counsel, Public Interest Registry (.ORG)
• Susan Chalmers, Internet Policy Specialist at US Department of Commerce, NTIA, Office of International Affairs

About the I&JPN Toolkit on DNS Level Action to Address Abuses
The Toolkit is the result of broad consultations with key policy actors since the 1st Global Conference of the Internet & Jurisdiction Policy Network in 2016, and the tireless work of governments, companies, international organizations, civil society, technical operators, and academics who have collaborated to develop interoperable solutions to Domain Name System-level action to address abuses.
The Toolkit would not be possible without the hard work and dedication of I&JPN Domains & Jurisdiction Program Contact Group Members. The I&JPN Secretariat is immensely grateful for the hard work of stakeholders.
