Internal regulation

This process is the result of a commitment made by the Coordination Committee, following the debate on adherence to the Manifesto in support of Palestine. After the resolution of that debate, the Coordination Committee recognized the need for clearer rules and procedures for decision-making and conflict resolution. This led to the initiation of the Internal Regulation drafting process.

How is the process organized?

The process is structured into eight phases, ensuring a thorough and participatory approach.

• Preparation (December 1–31): The Drafting Committee identifies key areas requiring regulation.

• Agenda Setting (January 9–February 1): The community is invited to comment on proposed topics and suggest new ones. The Committee then prioritizes the topics and forms drafting groups.

• First Deliberative Cycle:

  • Drafting #1 (February 1–March 1): Initial drafts of priority topics are created and reviewed.

  • Community Deliberation #1 (March 2–16): Drafts are opened for discussion through participatory texts, online events, and expert-facilitated discussions.

• Second Deliberative Cycle:

  • Drafting #2 (March 17–April 13): Refinement of existing drafts and integration of additional topics.

  • Community Deliberation #2 (April 14–26): Gathering contributions on the second set of topics.

• Finalization and Approval:

  • Feedback Integration (April 27–May 10): Incorporating input into a comprehensive set of regulations.

  • Coordination Committee Review (May 10–19): Finalizing the text for presentation.

  • General Assembly Vote (May 20–31): Approval of the Internal Regulation.
