    • Tell the bar/pub that you will have a meeting there, so that people can find you
    • Try to have recurrent meetings (always same date)

Minutes

We asked ourself: What's a democratic decision ?

  • A democratic decision should be in consensus. If you can't find a consensus on the question, you should find a consensus on the decision-process.
    • For example, if you can't find a consensus on the question, you can agree to postpone, discuss, organise meetings, not need a decision at all, vote... Make those kind of questions explicit!
  • Consensus means co-creativity and dialogue, avoid voting. This can take time, sometimes we cannot reach decision right away. A decision should be revisable and is therefore temporary.
  • How should meetings be organised?
    • We decided to talk about this in another meeting. 12/02/2017 in De 'Blauwe Schuit', Vismarkt in Leuven at 14h. The goal would be to have guidelines for meetings.
