A participatory process is a sequence of participatory activities (e.g. first filling out a survey, then making proposals, discussing them in face-to-face or virtual meetings, and finally prioritizing them) with the aim of defining and making a decision on a specific topic.
Examples of participatory processes are: a process of electing committee members (where candidatures are first presented, then debated and finally a candidacy is chosen), participatory budgets (where proposals are made, valued economically and voted on with the money available), a strategic planning process, the collaborative drafting of a regulation or norm, the design of an urban space or the production of a public policy plan.
Partial renewal of Coordination Committee (2024)
Election of new members of the Committee
About this process
This process is for the election of at least three new members of the Coordination Committee.
As stated in Article 18 of the Statutes of the Decidim Association, "the Committee will be partially renewed every two years. In the first shift, the secretarial and treasury offices and half of the vocalies will be renewed, and in the second shift, the rest." As two members have resigned from their Committee duties, and one member will pass to become the Director for the Technical Office for the Association, at least 3 posts need to be elected.
The Coordination Committee manages and represents the Association. You can learn more about the Coordination Committee here.
Article 24 establishes that this procedure must be done as a participatory process articulated in different phases that will culminate with the election of the new positions within the new Coordination Committee.
The aim of this process is therefore to initiate a participatory process so that members can exercise their right to be candidates and/or voters for the future Coordination Committee. This process has been designed by the current Coordination Committee with the aim of guaranteeing the correct functioning and maximum transparency and participation at all times. The final result of this process is the formation of a new Coordination Committee that will take office for the next few years. Only members can elect or be elected to representative bodies such as this one.
