- How do we modify the "news, now, next, and nuts" format to make decisions on elements of the plan, integrate those elements, and engage people to implement the next steps?

We need to think through the timeline for preparing the planning projects, preparing the posters and the presentations.

Specifically, we have the Michele Pujol Room booked on September 29 and 30. How do we best use this space to prepare for the conference?

- How do we modify the "news, now, next, and nuts" format to make decisions on elements of the plan, integrate those elements, and engage people to implement the next steps?
Continued work on rights and responsibilities
- What decisions can the research team make and what services does it provide for the network?
Continued work on general research issues for the plan
- What are the other issues that we need to consider for the plan? For example, what global climate initiative should we connect our plan to?

Completing the agenda for the conference

[edit] For July 23rd, 2007

Completing the agenda for the final day of the conference
- How do we build on the work from Saturday to make decisions on elements of the plan, integrate them, and engage people to implement the next steps
Engaging new people in the planning projects will be vital for their success. Having workshops in September, before the conference, is an opportunity for new people, namely students and staff, to engage.
- This will take lots of organization and planning. Is this a priority for Common Energy to invest in?
