Something about our associations structure

Our Associations structure is defined by its documents and idealy any member has a right to a clear juridic relation to the association.

The idea with having this as a quite central theme is that power inside the organisation should be available to creativity and engagement, not social skills or status or depending on "standing" inside the association.

To achive this we strive to keep good, easy to understand, habbits and forms around meetings and use a very good system for decision creation and management, Sociocracy 3.0.

Sociocracy was a game changer for our acossiation. Meeting times went from 2 days of unorganiced squabbeling to two houres or facilitated rounds with good and effective decision production. As Sociocracy in it's structure is an open and fully acesseble desision creation and management system in which anyone are free to both engage in decision creation and to make objection against earlier decisions, it leaves the organisation tension free. More about our use of the sociocracy model here.

Bylaws, Directives, protocol and Policy

We have two tiers of members in the association described in the member directive number 1.§3 active members and inactiv members. In active members are in effect suport members and get callings to membermeetings but have no voterights. To get voteright (which anyway are not used) one have to be an active member, This is a protection agains hostile takeover not an exclusion from participation in the creative process of creating the association. Even non members are welcome to participate in the creation process. Our plan is now to try out git as a base for our sociocratic system. sugestions to changes of directive can be made as pullrequest and the actual leegan state of the association can be downloaded by a git clone command.
