What are the first steps in your countries?
Conclusions of the brainstorming:
The main immediate steps outlined during the discussions suggest two-phases approach, committing of establishing a core-alliance responsible for the campaign, followed by a networking activity on a larger scale.
Basically, first steps should be low cost actions as:
* contacting the organisations sugared to become a interested in the campaign
* Estimating the costs an setting the necessary budget
* Establishing the Internet as the mail accessible mean of communication
Particular actions were outlined as it follows:
* (Romania) organising a meeting with an international guest from Democracy International
* (Yugoslavia) contacting some people which have influence in decision making
* (Belgium) contacting the members of the Convention
A secondary general item would be the identification of the multiplies as:
* Stakeholders, opinion leaders, especially young people
* people with influence on decision making
* Convention members
This groups will be the targets of the campaign, useful in the activity of distributing and publishing the information to the public opinion and for the lobby action.
A general task of Democracy International would be create a common identity of the activists involved in this particular campaign in order to enlarge the movement to a larger, maybe world wide size.
