Upcoming GA
Written by fake51 15 years agoIt's that time of year again: when the highly motivated get ready for the pilgrim journey. Yup, the GA is fast approaching and the interested will gather in Grimbergen on the 11th and the 12th of July to vote for board members and discuss the future of BeWelcome and BeVolunteer.
This, the 3rd GA, is my second time - missed it last year, unfortunately. I find it quite enjoyable, a nice excercise of democracy and team work. To me it's about affirming the basic values of BW: the openness, the inclusiveness, the democracy. So I hope to see a lot of people there, working together on a common project :)
Left to say is just that the GA is open for everyone with an interest in BW and/or BV. While some issues can be voted on by only BV members, discussion is typically open for everyone, even on the topics where only BV members can vote.
