Dear friends of the Region and dearest guests, Six months passed. Six months passed since I have been elected Network Commissioner for this marvellous Region. And then six months passed (or only a few less) since the new Rainbow Team started its activities. You know, our Team is composed by four SubTeams (Nursery, Education, Activities, FR&PR), and each of them works independently in its specifical field, in the way to support locals in each kind of problem they can face. At the beginning of my work, I presented this strategy plan to the Network Commission. Since that moment it represented my aim and my objectives. After six month (and another Agora) it's time for the first balance. I would like to make this balance now with all of you. Below you'll see the plan with comments about the current situation of each point. > Four guidelines: > 1. CREATION OF NEW LOCALS > 2. INTERNAL DEVELOPMENT OF LOCALS (working on human resources) > 3. EXTERNAL DEVELOPMENT OF LOCALS (working on activities and co-operation) > 4. REGIONAL ACTIVITIES FOR LOCALS (PR, FR) > > > 1. Creation of new locals > > Focus on: Central Italy, Croatia, Montenegro > > Universitary towns where it could be possible to set up AEGEE locals: > Central Italy - Camerino, Urbino, Cassino, Pescara, Siena, Chieti, Perugi Work in progress on Camerino, Chieti and Perugia. I forecast good results for the end of the term. Nore difficulties on Urbino, Cassino, Pescara and Siena, but... still good possibilities. > Croatia - Zadar, Dubrovnik Croatian situation is still difficult, expecially after the deletion of Split. Now the creation of a new Contact in Split is the priority and we are working hard for it. > Montenegro - Podgorica Good results: we have a responsible (a very well experienced girl from AEGEE-Niksic) and in a few weeks we will set up the Contact. > > > 2. Internal development of locals > > * Co-operation with Academy and PRWG to promote in the > Region participation at IE events (specially in the weakest locals) and > organization of IE events (specially in the strongest locals) . Great results: ES in Torino and many participants from Rainbow at ES1 in Torino, Tartu and at teh PRES in Sibiu. Some possibilities for the organization of a PRES in Southern Italy. > * Organization of several IE Days in the locals. > Just in program: AEGEE-Roma (January 2003), AEGEE-Bologna (January 2003 ?), > AEGEE-Macerata (February 2003 ?) ... Great results: LTC in Roma just done, LTC in Bologna scheduled for the end of May, IE Day in Macerata just done with good results. Now we are planning a new LTC in Croatia. > * Training Course in Firenze by Network Commission, SUCT, AEGEE-Firenze > (March 2003) Work in progress with good results: productive FR action together with the CD (Emrah) and logistic planification. Probable dates: October. > * IE Regional Meeting in Croatia (Rijeka?, Zagreb?) (April 2003) Marvellous results: just done in Rijeka with a good participation! > > > 3. External development of locals > > * Envolvement of locals in bigger projects and support of collaboration > among locals in organizations. Work in progress: involvement of AEGEE-Valletta and AEGEE-Macerata in a project promoted by the HRWG, and probable involvement of AEGEE-Niksic in the same one. > * Co-operation with SUCT promoting Summer Events in weak and > young locals. Not very considerable results, but a very good and active participation of Rainbow locals in the project. > * Support to "Find Europe" Project Unfortunately FE didn't start. > * Regional Meeting in Southern Italy (September 2003?) In a few days the final agreement with a strong South-Italian local > > > 4. Regional activities for locals > > * PR Campaign among locals about Statutory Meetings and general chances for > locals and about events organized in the Region Good results: already done for PM in Eschede and Agora in Bucuresti. Already planned for PM in Magusa and Agora in Zaragoza. > * FR informative campaign about financial subventions (deadline, > applications, etc.) Good results gotten at the RM in Rijeka, but the increase of this activity is planned for next six months. > * FR campaign searching for discount inside the Region for the locals Not considerable results except of the bus from Venezia to Bucuresti organized for the Agora. Also this activity is planned to be increased. > * Support in locals' PR and FR activities. Good results, expecially in PR with the action on web pages especially in Italy ( www.studenti.it ) television. A stronger FR support is planned. That's all! I think we can be satisfied, but we must feel also more motivated to work. But we need also something more: we need much more communication with you, friends. And I think you need this communication too. Don't forget here you have a team of people ready to help you in your AEGEE activities, in each of your AEGEE activities. I currently live in Italy, in Napoli, but a SubCommie lives close all of you, cause members of the Rainbow Team are everywhere in the Region, with a specifical compentence on a territory and with a specifical field of action. Be sure! There will be always a Rainbow Team members "specialized" in your kind of problem living close to you! You only have to approach him or her! See you, friends! See you at next e-mail!
