Movement Charter/Content
Charter Content NarrativeEdit
(A preliminary narrative of how the charter content is to be developed, from the Movement Charter Drafting Committee as of May 2022.)
The movement charter has as its preamble a Values Statement, which summarizes and eloquently expresses all that we hold dear in the broadest terms.
Actionable items that drive the actual policies can be drawn from a broad range of potential ideas and are sorted into three categories or buckets: for Governance, Resources and Community. These can also be conceived as the basic mechanisms that play a role in (1) political, (2) economic and (3) social/informational domains, and are a very functional way to divide the roles. All potential ideas and proposals that have a direct impact on policy would be sorted into one of these categories, including proposals from previous phases and also new proposals from the communities.
Each of the categories, or buckets, would be seeded by the MCDC with the best and broadest of ideas drawn from previous phases, as well as the MCDC’s own discussions. There would be room for review, clarification and new proposals from community members on the Meta-Wiki content-category subpage and through other platforms that will be cross-posted.
