Occupy Strategic Planning Working Group Mission Statement

DRAFT ONLY!!! A few people have been asked to draft this, please check w/info@occupyboston.org before changing it. If you want to help, cool...these folks just want a chance to work on it themselves for a few days...

OK folks...this is from the notes. Have at it.

1. The current mission of the InterOccupy Strategic Planning Working Group (IOSPWG) is to collect concrete objectives that could be used to implement the *Vision for A Democratic Future developed during the first Occupy National Gathering, 2012. http://interoccupy.net/blog/natgat-vision-results/ 2. The IOSPWG will develop criteria that define what a concrete objective is (as opposed to ideas or ideals that are 'not concrete') and a create a process for gathering and prioritizing those objectives that is as inclusive as possible. 3. Ideas/ideals will be listed, but not become part of the next phase of the process. 4. The next phase of the strategic planning process will be determined by the results of this gathering concrete objectives phase.

5. *The Vision for a Democratic Future document and process generated a wide range of responses. However, it is not the w/in the mission of this Working Group to re-open that discussion.

Notes:

I think numbering the sentences, see above, will make discussing the mission statement easier.

I"m not super familiar with the editing process of the wiki but I did assume that all my changes have been tracked. Aria.
