Arrival : The doors will open at 6 pm. People coming earlier can contact us.

The aim of the meeting is to go further into practical aspects, focusing
on « Working Groups » organisation instead of plenary discussions. We
recommend all participants to formulate in advance the problematics they
would like to discuss in these working groups. The minutes of the
meeting will mostly be constituted by each working group synthesis.

*Friday 4th- plenary session*

Agenda :

-      Quick resume of the mobilization process. Can we use the text
« Deauville, we won’t drink your water » as a base for our collective
political identity ?

-      Listing of the questions that need a collective answer (for
Sunday’s plenary)

    *

      « Working Groups » presentation – Constitution of the prioritary
      « Working Groups » (already mentioned as possibilities : medical
      team, legal team, actions, communication, Long-Life Village…).
      This working group frames could also allow for the development and
      deepening of our political statement if deemed necessary.

*Saturday 5th- 9.30 am : Brief meeting (No plenary)*

Agenda :

-      Presentation of all « Working Groups » to the newcomers. Open
invitation for everyone to subscribe to one or several « Working Group »
of their choice, so that from this weekend on, all functions, necessary
to build up the mobilization, can be put in place. Introduction of each
priority for the various « workshops » decided the day before

-      Technical issues : division into each priority working group, as
decided the day before. People should naturally take turns, to moderate,
translate, and take notes.

It is suggested that people might go from one workshop to another
without disturbing or slowing down the collective work in progress.

We’ll decide if ‘resource persons’ will be attached to each group (world
cafe type) to synthetize the various discussions.

*Sat. 5th – 10.30 am*: time for «Working Groups »

*Sat. 5th – afternoon*: time in «Working Groups». Drafting of a synthesis

*Sat. 5th – 7.30 pm : synthesis of each ateliers*

Agenda :

The point is to present the ideas not to debate them. Suggestion of
limiting the discussion time (around 15 min/each workshop)

*sat.5th – night : party*

Too much meeting time can make those fundamental moments impossible.

People can talk differently, more individualy or personnaly around a
drink, freed from the group discussion form.

It seems essential for us to use informal moments to allow things to
settle by themselves

*Sunday 6th – 9.30 am : plenary session*

Agenda :

-      Collective decisions about general questions (expressed on Friday
evening)..

and others..

-      Naturally, questions emerging from the debriefing of the
« ateliers », that unofficially come up on the Saturday party or during
meals will be discussed collectively on Sunday.

-      On Sunday we will also decide what comes next, the things we need
to go further explore and the future phases.

*Sunday 6th – afternoon : we tidy up and clean !*

Possible workshop on Crabgrass, for those who stil have difficulties to
use it.

See you !!
