Which option to take about "where" to locate the core extension team , among existing commissions
With an extension ratio of 30%, extension is not a marginal issue and can be taken account in all aspects of event organization
The choice of "where" in the organisation to locate the driving extension team ( where some sfex facilit people could cooperatefrom distance and on the sport with local team) is then a significant choice
Option 1 (spontaneous) : one idea is to locate sasf extended team inside "media" commission
"Media" is a much narrower scope than "communication" ( which includes OC to participants infomration and intercommunicaiton between participants whichis the main goal of the whole forum ) , so "core extension team" would be much more at ease as a subgroup inside a "communication" commisison , ( suggestion is : rename the "media" comission in "communication" commisison)
Option 2 : this core extension team can also be built as a subgroup of "program" or "mobilization" or "methdology" 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 sginficant extension ( Dakar was potentially 30% extended according to announcements made in and out the event website) were not enough taken into acount by program logistics and methdology commissions , and neither by the webteam who remained set on a "all presential" event format )
Option3 : 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
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 )
In any case extension is a decision by the overall organizing comittee and the level of OC ownership of extension as a poliitcal /methdological orientation by the committee is a key success factor
This is a point which was elaborated upon in chat 3
