where to locate the extension core team in the OC for better results?Which option to take about "where" to locate the core extension team , among existing commissions
|
|
Option 1 (spontaneous) : |
one idea is to locate sasf extended team inside "media" commission

|
Option 2 : |
this core extension team can also be built as a subgroup of "program" or "mobilization" or "methodology" commission, and there the links with methodology and mobilization process will be much stronger This may be a good option to test in view of problems encountered in Dakar, ( the logistical and methodological implications of a significant extension ( Dakar was potentially 30% extended according to announcements made in and out the event website) were not enough taken into account by program logistics and methodology commissions , and neither by the webteam who remained set on a "all presential" event format ) |

|
Option 3 : |
the core extension team can be a stand alone "extension commission"- This give a very stimulating visibility to extension and clearly invites the team to have cooperative relationships with all other commissions and the secretariat about extension |

Other Options: |
|
|
This leads to a concrete question : which is the commission in charge of website and of logistics of the venue ? or are those issues under direct responsibility of the secretariat ? ( in such case 2C could be a better option )

Example 1 |
Dear Organizers of the [write here name and location of the social forum involved] We write to you as members of a facilitating team of the social forum extended initiative1). We have been working and helping on the extension of social forum events worldwide through Internet connections in accordance with the Principles of the Social Forum Charter and we deeply wish and hope to collaborate with you for the [name of the event] as well as in future distant participations with your country, your people and organized groups. As far as the Social Forum Principles are involved, we wish to point at the advantages of such a participation that reveal concrete immediate objectives like the inclusion of a worldwide number of participants, the ecological aspect, and the fruitful exchange of shared problems and their possible solutions between world citizens. You may consult on the openfsm platform (2) the results that have been achieved up to now. As for indirect long-term objectives, it enables us to build a connected worldwide social forums web on our shared citizenship that will be available at anytime and anywhere to contribute on the framework for the construction of a better world. As far as the requirements to collaborate are involved it is quite easy and of small investment. For the perfect functioning of extended activities, there are two main points that are of extreme importance: human and technological. On the human part, we would like to help an extension group in your team that would be interested to prepare and support the connection with local groups outside of event venue and the enlargement on internet of activities held in the event, We can form a team that will help spread the invitation to participate send to local groups , and cooperate in the welcoming and support in the preparation of extended activities, local or distance encounters or distance participation As far as technological aspects are involved, it is relatively simple, local rooms equipped with computers, data show, screen/white wall, sound columns and internet connection are needed, this equipement can be gathered if the extension group is able to mutualize means between several organisations. Wishing to affirm our Shared Citizenship for a Better World, we would like to know if you are interested to extend the event you re about to organize and consider our experience and suport to assist you
Very best regards
