3. Individual members - Who are they? (their role in the network & how to engage them more)

• Tanja: We need to (re)define the role of WCN's so called individual members = paying members = active individuals. It appears that we have "active individuals" who are taking part in WCN's activities and decision making, but not necessarily paying for their membership which is according to the statutes obligatory for "individual members". Vice versa we have "paying members" who are according to the statutes "free to initiate or participate fully in any network project or activity" but we have been neglecting them badly by not engaging them nor even communicating with them regularly. In fact we don't even know whether they want to be just supporters money wise or do they want to get involved in our activities. The questions are: Who are the individual members (statutes vs. practice)? What do they want to be? What do we want them to be? Should we treat them like member orgs or as donators? How are we treating the them now?

DECISION: This is a big, unclear issue (and really important one since we have many times more individual members than we have member orgs.) According to the statutes individual members are "actively involved in the network but not associated with a member organisation", "support the network financially" and "free to initiate or participate fully in any network project or activity." Tanja will do research on the current situation and write a summary about the theory (statutes) and the practice and ask the WCN intern - list & SC to comment.

Chris: Work in the next issue, work on the blog, help with data entry for WCD in the wiki, work on the local carfree day&parking day.

Chris: The computer froze and therefore these are irrevocably lost :( Tanja will rewrite.

DECISION: Contact Steve and Randy to see what needs to be done, then Jacub.

9. CB distribution (issue #35) - who and how?

b. The mailing will be conducted by Chris.

1. One more EVS (Cigdem, Markus or Mathieu)

• We can take one more EVS volunteer for next season.

DECISION: Cigdem will be the next EVS.

Tanja: We need to decide today who will be the next volunteer.

2. Membership coordination (general issues/tasks + priorities)

• Justin's tasks for the next two months.

Justin: My tasks are - a. Approval of pending members. b. Working on the new fees policy for joining the WCN. c. Being in touch with the new members.

Tanja: Justin needs to develop a detailed work plan for his future tasks, concentrating on the membership fees.

Justin: I will send a draft proposal by the end of this week to the Management Committee.

Tanja: We need to know when money to the organisation will start flowing in.

Justin: We must first decide on the fee, then renew the joining section of the website to include the 'annual renewal' and then ask people to pay. These could be done by September.

Tanja: We need also to develop a membership survey, organised by Justin, to ask member orgs what they need from the WCN.

Justin: There is an old version that could act as a base for a new one.

Tanja: This is old. A new version should be sent to everyone.

Justin: Sounds good.

Tanja: We need also to work with members regarding the World Carfree Day.

Justin: It would be good to have someone who could work with updating the website. I am going to make a call-out to member orgs to send their information and highlight on the September bulletin the WCD plans around the world.

Tanja: Noone here has the technical knowledge to update the website and deal with a flow of lots of information. That is why it is better to have a wiki.

DECISIONS: [I'm not sure what was exactly decided]

3. Individual members (their role in the network - how to engage them more)

• We need to communicate actively with individual members and involve them more.

DECISION: We will send a list of all members to Justin, along with regular updates, to add to the bulletin. Tanja, as fundraiser, will develop correspondence with individual members who can help the organisation in financial ways.

4. Sam's, Chris' and Theo's workplans after mag

Sam: Put the magazine online, work in distribution, help with the new issue. Chris: Work in the next issue, work on the blog, help with data entry for WCD in the wiki, work on the local carfree day. Theo: Work in the next issue, help with media outreach, work on online outreach.

5. Creating a to-do-list at the office (including office and project tasks)

DECISION: Brainstorm on what are the essential tasks in the office and in relation to the WCN projects and prioritise them.

6. Welcome packages to new EVS volunteers - who will do?

DECISIONS: Theo will send packages with various gifts for the new volunteers.

7. Last week's minutes - where are they?

Chris: The computer froze and therefore these are irrevocably lost :(

8. Kagi changes (+ redesign) - who will coordinate?

• Kagi must be changed in order to have the new prices.

DECISION: Contact Steve and Randy to see what needs to be done, then Jacob.

9. CB distribution - who and how?
