=== ANNOUNCEMENT: PPI General Assembly 2018 ===
Greetings Pirates and Concerned Citizens of the World,
We hereby announce that the second 2018 GA will be held on November 3rd and 4th. Further details about the GA are outlined below. We encourage member parties to send us a list of delegates. This will be a hybrid General Assembly, meaning that a majority of participants can participate online. We look forward to seeing you all soon.
== Hybrid General Assembly PPI 2018, Munich, Germany ==
At the last two GAs our members have, naturally, been critical because remote delegates were unable to participate properly and were essentially treated as second-class participants. PPI is a global organisation and there is simply no way we can have all delegates fly in to whatever venue we choose. It is simply not practical or economical. We need a way for delegates to participate from afar, at the same level as those who are in the same room.
So this the second year we have chosen to test a hybrid solution. You are invited to congregate with the current board in Munich and enjoy the hospitality of the Pirate Party of Bavaria or else you are invited to participate through the than given video conference solution, webinar style.
The venue:
Piratenpartei Landesverband Bayern
Schopenhauerstraße 71
80807 München

:The conference will be accesible through Zoom.us video a webinar aka web conference solution. You, our members, will be able to participate through text chat,voice, video and screen sharing. This does not cost anything. Our aim is to bring us all closer to each other without the cost of travel.

Revision as of 18:13, 30 September 2018

ANNOUNCEMENT: PPI General Assembly 2018

Greetings Pirates and Concerned Citizens of the World,

We hereby announce that the second 2018 GA will be held on November 3rd and 4th. Further details about the GA are outlined below. We encourage member parties to send us a list of delegates. This will be a hybrid General Assembly, meaning that a majority of participants can participate online. We look forward to seeing you all soon.

Hybrid General Assembly PPI 2018, Munich, Germany

At the last two GAs our members have, naturally, been critical because remote delegates were unable to participate properly and were essentially treated as second-class participants. PPI is a global organisation and there is simply no way we can have all delegates fly in to whatever venue we choose. It is simply not practical or economical. We need a way for delegates to participate from afar, at the same level as those who are in the same room.

So this the second year we have chosen to test a hybrid solution. You are invited to congregate with the current board in Munich and enjoy the hospitality of the Pirate Party of Bavaria or else you are invited to participate through the than given video conference solution, webinar style.

The venue: Piratenpartei Landesverband Bayern Schopenhauerstraße 71 80807 München +49 89 38 164 693-0

Map: https://goo.gl/maps/x1fZVXSJ5sv

Streaming/Video

The conference will be accesible through Zoom.us video a webinar aka web conference solution. You, our members, will be able to participate through text chat,voice, video and screen sharing. This does not cost anything. Our aim is to bring us all closer to each other without the cost of travel.

We need you to register your delegates for this meeting. Please have your them register at this URL no later than October 10th at 23:59 CET.
