SLDP = Congress

We had our mission-vision sharing with the rest of the leadership community in AVR 1 this morning. After our snack break, I entered the room seeing a semi-circle seating arrangement reminiscing the Assembly General (French Revolution) of men and women bearing great ideas ready to make a difference, big or small. This comparison allowed me to see what the program could be. Aside from the technical and insightful inputs it gives, the SLDP is a clear venue to exchange ideas of the student orgs’ mission and vision, to establish networks of synergy and to participate in a dynamic democratic process (scrutinizing the mission-vision, agreeing a common university-wide agenda etc.). This leads me to recommend the following:

  1. Hold it earlier
  2. Incorporate the Opening of the Directorate as part of the Program
  3. Include a common agenda making session
  4. sign a pledge of commitment to achieve the common agenda

This program of the SacDev could be the magic glue for an umbrella mechanism that provides intimacy with the student organization of the University, the formula that will glue the central, extension, and field offices.

A simple imagination could bear great ideas. It is a challenge for me to see things more than what seem obvious.
