Dialogue about collaboration in a political movement

< Collaboration at Volt
 * Dutch: Dialoog over samenwerking bij Volt
 * Team: Team collaboration

Introduction

 * In Q4 2019 some Volters are having a dialogue about collaboration at Volt.
 * On this page you can find some of the questions that came up in this dialogue.
 * We also want to give some advise to countries. The advice is that it is probably smart to experiment with Workplace, although we are looking to altnernatives for Workplace. Another piece of advice is that it is probably smart to start a pilot. A suggestion is to start a collaboration-pilot for sustainability and healthcare.

On our mind

 * Questions about collaboration at Volt

Process the following
Expertise: We (Volt Barcelona) are making approaches to other cities of Volt Spain and Europe to program joint events and / or work together from the work teams! Our idea is to create a "badge" (digital) that celebrates and makes visible this type of collaborations (something like "twin cities" in Europe), because we firmly believe that sharing knowledge and experiences is the spirit of Volt Europe, as a pan-european party!

On our mind

 * At Volt, but also in the R2 community you have a lot of volunteers that want to share their thinking and doing power.
 * We use tools like WhatsApp, Workplace, Trello to facilitate collaboration.
 * When we talk about collaboration we probably make a difference between the aim of the collaboration.
 * For instance the more you go to the left, the more control the strategy team of Volt has. Volt has less control about activities that are going on in society. Volt will probably focus on creating policies and train the candidates. But Volt also wants to be a movement. Volt wants to facilitate initiatives from people, like Ping Ping, an initiative of the city of Amsterdam to train the financial skills of young children.



Teams
Initiatives are setup and executed by teams. See Volt teams.

R2 wiki

 * The R2 wiki is a platform where teams can share information about their initiatives.
 * The R2 wiki is not only for Volters. All people are invited to share their thinking and doing power.
