What are the challenges you aim to address with this project?
Those can help you to think about your project proposal.
Some members of our community are not aware of the Movement Charter. This lack of awareness means that many are not fully engaged. This project provides an opportunity for our community members to come together to discuss and learn more about decision-making within the movement and how these decisions affect them and the valuable work that is happening.
When do you intend to begin and complete this project?
(you are welcome to adopt this example of a project timetable below)

We aim to begin this project immediately. The timelines for this project are detailed above, but we will specifically carry out these activities;
- Translations and documentation, where translations do not already exist.
- Community outreach and pre-consultation engagements, to let the community know about the upcoming conversations.
- Community engagement (online meeting to discuss feedback):
- Community engagement (in-person meeting to discuss feedback), where necessary.
- Feedback notes shared on meta and with the MCDC:
- Joining Movement Charter consultations, communications and engagements that are happening in the region. We will work closely with the regional specialists on these regional calls.
A final project financial report is due 30 days after the project has come to completion. The due date for the report is May 25, 2024.
Where will your project activities be happening?
(Below are some examples of how and where your project activities are happening. Please select those that apply to your engagement/ your community)
- Online: we will host online meetings to onboard the community. We will invite Movement Strategy facilitators and members of the MCDC to join these online conversions so people have an opportunity to engage directly and get immediate responses to their questions.
- Hybrid: Some of our community members would like to meet in-person for these conversations, while others will be remote. The aim is to make sure that the first conversations happen with everyone in the discussions. We aim to ensure that everyone is truly included
- In-person (offline): Our community members are available to meet in-person. People engage better this way, however we will keep the meetings informal which means we will not be renting space to hold these conversations but will provide attendees with refreshments.
Are you collaborating with others on this project?
