Dear all,

the year is coming to an end and the alumni working group has gone
a part of the way towards establishment of a registered alumni
network. We have members from all parts of the world which now
need to come togeether to decide on the next steps.

Therefore, we invite all members of the network to take part in
our pre general assembly to be held on Thursday, December 17th at
3:30 gmt.

Please find below a rough agenda of the meeting. We will send out
more detailed information and exact timings for all participants
some days in advance.
Your participation in this pre general assembly is very important
to decide on the future of our network and the way we can set up a
registered organization. Please try to find some time and a good
internet connection to join us on skype. If the date is not
convenient for you or you have big challenges to use skype, please
let us know. We will do our best to involve as many members of the
network as possible.

Agenda of the pre general assembly

1. Report about what the working group has achieved so far
- WEB PORTAL: Team of 5 volunteer developers from Germany, Serbia,
US and Indiastarted their work on the web portal (so far 3
meetings done and layout prepared by designer in InVisio Boostrap)
- REGISTRATION: Comparison of legal framework for registration in
Germany and Poland - now we need to decide where to register!?
- DRAFT CONSTITUTION prepared along with 5 PEER SUPPORT sessions
- Research on alternative means of communication to skype
(teleconferencing systems)
- difficulties: last 2 months it is very difficult to maintain
commitment of WG members/alumni which results in slowing down the
process
- round of comments

2. Final Name of network
- For the purpose of the created web portal and legal registration
- we need to finalize the name. 3 names have received the biggest
support so far:
kanthari global network - plus: this name underlines our global
character, minus: can be confused with kanthari itself
kanthari alumni network - plus: this name explains exactly who we
are in a clear way, minus: can be viewed as an organization aimed
to support kanthari /also it will make it very difficult to have
non-kanthari members, if we decide to expand in the future
kanthari changemakers network- plus: this name explains clearly
who we are, minus: it is quite long
- Which name do we choose finally?
- round of comments

3. Advantages/Disadvantages of Registration in Poland and Germany
- Pros and cons for registering our network as a foundation in
Poland or as an association in Germany presented by Jessica and Tomek
- More information will be send out with the final agenda.
- round of comments

4. Means of communication - email, whatsapp, facebook, skype, other?
- What do we like/don't like about how the working group
communicates with me so far?
- How do we organize a general assembly when we decide to register
a legal organization? (what works/what not)
- Request from the working group with regards to Whatsapp group:
please post only short and relevant messages
- round of comments

5. Way forward - Plan for coming 3 months
A plan will be sent out in the detailed agenda some days before
the pre-general assembly
-round of comments


Please let us know if you want to participate in the pre general
assembly.

Best regards from the alumni working group
