Project Team

Oct-Dec 2018

The project team is active during the entire preparation up to and including the (financial) settlement of the conference. Team assmebly starts in the months following the prior Autminds. The team is composed of a mix of new volunteers who make themselves known  and volunteers who were active at a previous Autminds.

Theme Selection

Deadline January 7th

With a “Call for theme proposals”, we collect ideas for the Autminds theme. Anyone can submit proposals and provide an explanation of their proposal. We discuss all proposals in the project team and make a choice.

Important criteria for a successful theme are: the width of the theme (are there sufficient topics)  and can you apply different perspectives (eg scientific, practical, theoretical, experiential)

Call-for-Proposals

March 7th – June 7th

The chosen theme is described and explained in a “Call-for-proposals”. Anyone can submit a proposal for an activity that they think falls within the theme. The activity does not have to be a lecture, but can also be a workshop, discussion, exercise lesson, etc. to be.

The project team makes a selection from the proposals
