Feedback and participation, Decision making, Meeting, What do Lou and Alex…

- - - - .
        
        the project should welcome the input from many more of us than that and that it needs to develop ownership and participation by as many within GEN in general as possible
        
        .
        
        People to be able to check up on the work done and give feedback
        
        Check with people being mentioned in a publication before publishing it?
        
        Also organization being mentioned?
        
        ¿Degree of involvement?
        
        Checking with each respective elder the media produced with info provided by her/him, before publishing it
        
        Reddit-like feedback promotion?
        
        Will there be that much participation?
        
        A space that welcomes and facilitates the exploration and clarification of ideas and suggestions, WITHOUT commiting to them on the spot.
        
        Integration of that information a task resposibility of Lou and Alex? and Lucilla and Daniel?
        
        Time to process information and see how (¿and if?) to integrate in the systems
      - platform that provides access to many of the books that have been written about individual ecovillages, along with GEN in general
      - This could be one of the first Communitites of Practice to be developed and additional interested people could then be invited to join and become a participant in and supporter of GEN’s TimeLine, Sharing & History COP
      - List areas of interest and expertise that people would like to share
      - A place where we can connect with each other
      - Gather the stories and participation of GEN youth as well
      - Take us well into the future
      - Welcome the stories of many more within GEN than just from among our leadership circles
        
        Rob: I would also be happy to Interview young people and youth/young adults that have grown up in ecovillage communities along with NextGEN leaders current and past as I would love to hear their stories as well
    - - • Let’s support NextGEN youth to interview elders (within and across communities)
      - • Let’s involve the CSA and ICSA as they are keepers of much communal history, some ancient!
      - • Let’s allow comments and discussion on each event to spur dialogue and nostalgia
      - • How about we also allow future events as a way of collective visioning and dreaming
- - - - comments
      - ¿voting system to pass?
      - polls
  - - - Risks
        
        Weight of participation
        
        Participants' expectations regarding others' commitment to particular ideas?
        
        Focus loss?
        
        ... of taking too much initiative in the project without having first had a meeting with Daniel and Lucilla
        
        ¿Ingroup - outgroup?
        
        Coordination
        
        Information
        
        ¿Setting rules of participation?
        
        ¿Getting a feel of what ¿[Lucilla and Daniel]? want, see, ...?
        
        Idea first proposed by ¿Daniel?
        
        Responsibility
        
        Who are we working for / serving?
        
        Whose vision?

        Lose the opportunity for certain contributions that needed some prior preparation before inviting people to further participate
      - Potential positive outcomes
        
        Receive info from elders
        
        Further curation of ideas
        
        Emergence of further interest and participation
      - Only reading mode?
        
        Welcome further info by email, and Alex includes it in Miro?
    - - Email them
      - Wait until meeting
    - - Risks
        
        Lose some engagement and momentum
        
        Emergence of feelings of being limited, restricted, or not part of, not as influencial in the project
      - Potential positive outcomes
        
        A more structured participation system considering the info from the meeting with Lucilla, Daniel, Lou and Alex
- - - - Areas of responsability?
- - - - what is 'best'?
        
        A word that I use instead of a detailed explanation of the heuristic through which I've made that decision and the elements that conditioned it. Not repeating the self-reflecting process I've gone through.
    - - Clear?, transparent?
      - Equitable?, fair?
- - - - Do we want an extra platform?
      - Do we host it on the GEN website?
      - Do we go for something wide, or just the timeline?
- - - - How our decision making process is going to be
        
        Offer them to become co-responsible from then on of a part of the decision making process of the project
        
        Decide the next steps
        
        Actionable tasks
        
        Assign them
        
        Clarify responsibilities.
        
        ¿Participation?
        
        ¿The decision of what steps to take next would be made by the people who are going to do the work necessary to make those steps, using everyone’s feedback as support and inspiration?
        
        What work exactly?, if Lucilla and Daniel only give ideas, what's the difference with other elders?

        Whose?
        
        Invite more people than just the desing group?
        
        What's the scope of the project. I see historical events as a continuous fractal branching, and language as a lineal representational system.

        ABSTRACTION. Linearity, nodes, "Acórtalo".
        
        Structure for people themselves to write?
- - - - Something about the info shared on the first email to elders?
      - Info gathered on first meeting of Lou and Alex?
- - - - ¿ [What are you passionate about?] ?
      - ¿ [Why do you want to work on this project?] ?
      - ¿ [Would you like to share one story that comes to your mind in relation with community or ecovillages?] ?
- - - - Outside the scope of the project
        
        Could be further explored later on
      - Within the scope of the project
    - - Integrating a greater diversity of perspectives

        Offering solutions to questions that may arise

- - - - ¿The decision of what steps to take next would be made by the people who are going to do the work necessary to make those steps, using everyone’s feedback as support and inspiration?
      - Means to participate
  - - - Wouldn't it be better to allow for everyone's ideas to be shared, and then with the design team reflect on what to do next?
        
        ¿Discuss this very decision with them?
- - - - And chose through an heuristic, that has been crafted considering many conditioning elements, and that is meant to ensure that certain people find the participatory system of the project to be fair, equitable and clear
