DNS Hackathon: Unleashing the Potential of the Domain Name System

The DNS Hackathon is a unique opportunity for participants to enhance their skills and collaborate in solving operational challenges related to the Domain Name System (DNS). Throughout the week, participants, individually or in groups, will tackle a series of practical tasks encompassing the configuration of recursive and authoritative DNS servers, DNSSEC implementation, and Universal Acceptance testing. The goal is to foster learning, knowledge exchange, and hands-on experience in a collaborative environment, with the support of subject matter experts. It's not necessary to complete all levels, the important thing is to participate, learn, and contribute to strengthening the DNS ecosystem in the region!

Breaking Down Barriers: A Collaborative Approach to Universal Acceptance in the LAC Region

Moderator: Nicolas Caballero, ICANN Board

Universal Acceptance (UA) ensures that all domain names and email addresses, regardless of script or length, are treated equally by applications, devices, and services. Achieving UA is crucial for fostering a more inclusive and accessible internet in the Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) region. This panel will bring together stakeholders from software development companies, universities, and ccTLD registries to discuss the current state of UA in the region, identify challenges, and explore collaborative solutions to promote its adoption.
