Hello everyone,
The Board of Trustees is preparing a Call for Feedback about the upcoming
Board Elections, from *7 January - 10 February 2022*.
While the details will be finalized the week before the call, we have
confirmed at least two questions that will be asked:
-
What is the best way to ensure fair representation of emerging
communities among the Board?
-
What involvement should candidates have during the election?
While additional questions may be added, the Movement Strategy and
Governance team wants to provide time for community members and affiliates
to consider and prepare ideas on the confirmed questions before the call
opens.
We apologize for not having a complete list of questions at this time. The
list of questions should only grow by one or two questions.
The intention is to not overwhelm the community with requests, but provide
notice and welcome feedback on these important questions.
Do you want to help organize local conversation during this call?
Contact the Movement Strategy and Governance team

Kindly reach out if you have any questions or concerns. The Movement
Strategy and Governance team will be minimally staffed until 3rd January.
Please excuse any delayed response during this time.
We also recognize that some community members and affiliates are offline
during the December holidays. We apologize if our message has reached you
while you are on holiday.
