Date Poll for Extaordinary General Assembly
In addition to the annual regular general assembly, there is also the option to convene an extraordinary general assembly.
As the executive board, we have discussed this and would like to organize an extraordinary general assembly as an online event.
To ensure that the date works for as many of you as possible, you can find a scheduling poll here.
Please fill it out by April 26.
At this extraordinary general assembly, votes can in particular be held on proposals to amend the jDPG’s rules of procedure and election regulations, and additional proposals can be submitted. 🙋📄
(The elections and reports of the executive board, however, are reserved for the regular general assembly in October.)
Start of an RG Challenge for the jDPG Anniversary
The RG Challenge kicks off in May! 🥳 Each month, you’ll receive a new and exciting task that you can complete with your regional group. :jdpg: We hope you have lots of fun crafting, experimenting, and celebrating after successfully completing each challenge. 😄 Starting in August, an even bigger challenge awaits you 👀
