[Chapter-delegates] Final Call for Input on the Chapter Charter Agreement (Deadline: 15 September)

Dear colleagues,
Many thanks for the contributions so far. ISOC Switzerland agrees with
much of what has been raised, and we will send a fuller response in the
next few days.
For now, we would like to raise one point that does not appear to have
been mentioned yet (apologies if we missed it): the Dispute Resolution
clause at the end of the Terms and Conditions.
1. The wrong rules are cited. The clause refers to the "ICOM-WIPO
Mediation Rules." WIPO developed these with the International Council of
Museums specifically for art and cultural heritage disputes. We assume
that the general WIPO Mediation Rules were intended. Correcting the
reference would avoid any procedural confusion.
2. There is no governing law. The agreement does not specify which law
applies. Naming Geneva as the place of arbitration determines where the
arbitration takes place, but not the substantive law governing the
agreement. We suggest adding a governing-law clause, which should also
clarify that each chapter's internal governance remains subject to its
own applicable local law.
3. Under WIPO's published fee schedule for arbitration under the WIPO
Arbitration Rules, the claimant pays a USD 2,000 registration fee and a
USD 4,000 administration fee (also applicable to non-monetary disputes),
before arbitrator fees (indicatively USD 300–600 per hour, with deposits
shared equally) and legal costs. A chapter contesting a de-chartering
would therefore face at least USD 6,000 upfront. We, as most chapters,
are run by volunteers and could not realistically afford to use this
mechanism. For a chapter of our size, these costs would be
disproportionate. We suggest establishing a reasonable cap on the costs
borne by a chapter in any dispute with the Internet Society, with costs
above that cap covered by the Internet Society .
4. Link to the appeal process. The draft should explain how arbitration
relates to the appeal process under ISOC's Bylaws. Ideally, chapters
would have access to a free internal appeal step before resorting to
arbitration.
If the new Charter is meant to rest on trust, chapters need a fair and
affordable way to resolve disagreements.
Kind regards,
Berna Alp
Chair, Internet Society Switzerland Chapter (ISOC-CH)
