Incubator groups between «Asia WSF mobilizing initiative» participating organizations
Around themes of wsf 2021, stimulating articulations around self organized activities
Activities gathering in an » Asia Social Forum Event» W19 T20 F21 January date TBC)

DRAFTV2 Methodology for preparation of a first » Asia WSF Contributive Event» , expression of an Asia Social forum process / WSF2022 participation build up process

The methodology described and the dates has been commented and approved on 26th october kick off meeting ( https://join.wsf2021.net/activities/9292) Hence some part of it are Draft V2, and reflecting discussion held then, and some further elaboration in the facilitating group .

Its futher implementation will be commented and improved on 26th november meeting (register for meeting here https://join.wsf2021.net/activities/9324 )

INCUBATOR GROUPS
A series of incubator groups ( OGs implemented in whatsapp), pragmatically aligned with the thematics of WSF2021 ( see below), is populated with a kickoff in 26th october Asia meeting up to november 26th Asia meeting .Organizations that made themselves present in Asia WSF Mob space ( see directory ) can come through in an IG through invite link shared in the asia group or through expression of willingness in the Group Chat.

List of incubator groups IGs is following ( aligned with virtual WSF thematic structure used in Join WSF platform https://wsf2021.net/espacios-tematicos/)

IG1 peace and war – IG2 economic justice – IG3 comunication education culture – IG4 society diversity feminisms – CDWD – Indigenous -LGBTQ – IG5 social justice – IG6 democracy – IG7 climate and ecology – IG8 future of wsf – IG9 others and transversal issues

Invite links to join IGs is shared in Asia wsf mob / ASF buildup meetings – Outside meetings participants are welcome to express their willingness to join an IG in the Asia WSF mobilizing Initiative group chat. or in the «Participation towards Asia (W)SF event» online form ( soon to come)

The apparent «thematic» of each IG is a broad starting point and is not to limit the discussion herein about » thematic issue based topics» : IG can incubate activities on all kind of topic having some relation with their name. For instance IG6 democracy or IG9 may host discussions on a series of activities about the topic «way forwards about general political perspectives».

Each organization can join the incubator groups it wants. They discuss starting from a broad initial common interest reflected in the IG name, and then focus on formulating specific «topics» and then look into co organizing one or more self organized activity relevant to some of them . Some activities maybe designed as more didactic/visible «panels» (with regulation of their number and their buildup process by Facilitating Group)

——-

ACTIVITIES and THEIR ADDED VALUE TO THE WORLD SOCIAL FORUM PROCESS

Expecteed outcome of an incubator group is one or more self organized activities between minimum 2 organizations that be described as activity in the join WSF platform – The persons entrusted to describe an activity is chosen betwen the group of organizations willing to cooperate in that activity

( draftV2) The notion of «added value of/relevancy of/contribution to WSF process/ from each incubated activity is of course subjective , However it might be somehow collectively appreciated, independently from the diversity of opinion about the «political substance» of each activity.

Added value/relevancy /contribution of an activity to /for the WSF process, can commented/assessed through its clarity of its formulation in join.wsf platform, relevancy of its Topic in consideration of challenges faced in civil society working towards «another possible Asia» , quality of format, methodology , width of its convening circle of organizations, ( which is accurately made visible on join.wsf platform) and concreteness of its possible connection to outcome and action, which can be expressed through initiatives ( visible on join.wsf platform)

One or more panel about «why and how participate/contribute in WSF, from Asia » can be organized during the event ( it may stem from IG8 or IG9 group for instance)

Formulated activities will be visible in a basic chronological list and presented in a «program format » for the event @see part A Above and later in a specific website he

In the join platform Activities can be placed in connection with up to three thematics + transversal ones. So their description is self located in more than one thematic dimension, and this information will be pushed in the other corresponding incubator groups so they are aware of other activities linked to their broad topic

ROLE OF FACILITATING GROUP ABOUT IGS AND ACTIVIITIES ( draftV2)

Sustain interconnectedness and transversality : make sure that the various dimensions of activities stemming from an IG are made visible in the corresponding other IG – eg if an activity is incubated in IG1 and is also placed by its organizers as related to transversal theme «pandemic» – FG makes sure that 1/ this is made known in the IG9 group and 2/ there is one person from the organizers that is also present in the IG9 group

Care for added value to the process : through non intrusive and non impositive communication with organizers of activities make questions/suggestion aiming at more added value as perceived in the FG

Goals of Asia WSF Mob/Connection Initiative facilitating group : That those activities gathered in the event program
1/ are perceived as having «added value» to the social forum process ( see paragraph above)
2/ are co organized by several organizations and
3/ the dialogues here in incubator groups be useful for each participating organization to better define its goals of participation in the two social forum processes ( in a starting ASF process, and or in the WSF 2022 process towards mexico ) and to better see how to participate proactively from now on in those two processes

This effort will be seconded by stimulation from Asia WSF Mob iniatiative facilitating group
