Presentation
This is meant to be an interactive discussion with the African communities and affiliates on the opportunities of the movement governance reform. Emerging communities have often been left out by structures of power and privilege. This has to change. During the drafting of the Movement Charter African communities will have a say in decisions that will impact them for decades to come: Who will make decisions about money, technology, policy? Will the Global Council be an advisory body or a governing body? We will briefly introduce the current governance structures and then discuss scenarios for the future.
