Dear Rainbow Members and Boards,
in 7 days we will be in Patra for the Agora voting for candidates, proposals to modify the CIA and discuss many other issues.
The people and the proposals that you are going to vote are those which, by tradition, you will start to complain about the next day.
I do not pretend to have a recipe to solve all your problems, but for sure, if there was more participation from Locals and delegates you are sending to Agora you would influence more AEGEE activity and you would have less things to complain about.
So, I want to give you some advice on how to shake up the situation:
1) As Board and Antenna, Did you discuss candidates and proposals?
If the answer is no, I suggest you do a meeting or hear in chat and discuss them. If the answer is yes, make sure that it will give some results once in Patra.
2) Are you sending your Delegates to put only the presence but reading this email you think that maybe it is the wrong strategy?
Let them understand what they need to do during Agora, what is the position of the Local they are going to represent.
3) Do you want your delegates to compare their position with delegates from other Locals and can bring you back a more global perspective?
4) Do you have doubts about candidates or proposals?
Delegates have speaking right at the Agora for this reason! Tell them to ask questions and figure out which option is best for your Antenna; You can also suggest questions if you want.
Wish you a good Agora and to participate more :D
