\tMaybe some of you know me already, but for the newcomers: my name is Jonmar van Vlijmen, from Amsterdam, where I live together with my boyfriend and yellow canary in a commune of 9 people. My current activities are dealing with issues evolving around European culture through my work as a social designer. After finishing my post master degree ‘Multiplicity & Visual Identity’ in Switzerland, I became more and more interested in the dynamics of communities and the process of building up new structures from scratch in a democratic way.\u00a0 I’m fascinated by the way people think of their european identity and work on the project ‘Hello Herman’ to provide platform for expressing it. I’ve been involved in European Alternatives for over a year now and have co-organized the Transeuropa festival in Amsterdam in May this year.
\t\u00a0
\tAs a representative of the members of the European Alternatives, I see it as my task to create a mechanism to canalize all your ideas, comments, critique and compliments to the organization. I’ll use four perspectives to represent you.
\t\u00a0
\tnew members<\/strong>
\tNew members need to be warmly embraced, their opinion becomes important right after getting involved. As a bottom up organization it’s of importance that new members can have the freedom to give input in such a way that they do not feel excluded in any way. I see it as a great opportunity to provide an clear and open contact between members and the organization.
\t\u00a0
\tidentity of European Alternatives<\/strong>
\tThe organization may, over time, be overly identified with the person or personality of the founders.
\tIn setting up a legal structure for an NGO, the organization can only stay alive, when it’s a mirror of the members. For the organization to develop in a healthy and sustainable way, from my opinion it is important when it would mirror the members. With this position I hope to ensure this democratic aspect.
\t\u00a0
\tdecision making<\/strong>
\tThe founders are at the center of all decision-making.
\tIn order to make a truly bottom up and transnational development, they need your input to make good decisions!
\tAs a member on the board, my goal would be to aim for balanced decision making, taking all different views and perspectives from different regions in Europe into account.
\t\u00a0
\twe like eachother<\/strong>
\tof course… but that is not an argument to agree or disagree to developments within the local groups or in the organization itself. Communication and transparency are key for the development of European Alternatives, that’s why your opinion is of great value.
\t\u00a0
\tOn behalf of the members I would like become a trustworthy representative for the members, on creating a platform to make sure your initiatives, concerns, questions or interests are taken into account.
