ESEAP Preparatory Council/Process/zh
Outdated translations are marked like this.
This communique is to document the process for informing and reaching consensus for the method of creating a time-bound Preparatory Council, to conclude in the ESEAP Conference in May 2024.
The Preparatory Council
- The Council consists of 9 seats, of which 4 seats of the 9 are comprised by members of Affcom-recognized Affiliates in the ESEAP region, who shall be voted exclusively among the Affiliates; and 3 Council seats to be be comprised by members from verified ESEAP-specific Communities and language projects, likewise to be exclusively voted by the Communities. Furthermore, there will be 2 seats available for self-nomination by Individuals, to be voted on by Popular Vote (all Individual voters). These variances are particular to the Preparatory Council election process.
- After the results are announced, the new Preparatory Council will immediately convene.
- The Preparatory Council will have a time-bound mandate to officiate and author policies until the next ESEAP Conference in 2024.
- The Preparatory Council will continue the work of the Interim Hub Committee, focusing on community consultation, and completing documentation with the Roles & Responsibilities document as the priority. The Theory of Change document should be the core document as basis for the Grant Plan and application. Developing a Learning Plan for the first year to identify reflection points and key questions may also serve as the framework for a sustainable Strategy presentation.
- The documents are to be finalised by the Preparatory Council, but not to be actioned or put into operation. This means the Preparatory Council will not employ Hub staff, take on projects, or agree to work pieces, as this will be the role of the permanent governance roles who will be elected by the next ESEAP Conference 2024.
- If the Preparatory Council submits a Grant plan successfully to receive funding, the funds will be held until the election of the formal governance roles (by ESEAP Conference 2024) who will have a mandate to formally put the Grant plan into action.
- Being on the Preparatory Council will not exclude someone from being elected to the formal governance roles by the next ESEAP Conference 2024.
