Background

Proposal 121 (adopted 1/30/05) stipulates that "all face to face meetings of the Coordinating Committee of the Green National Committee will be facilitated by a person or persons who have been approved by the Coordinating Committee of the Green National Committee."

"It is encouraged that Committees, Caucuses and States consider the
qualifications such as experience and familiarity with the Green Consensus process. No candidate who is registered with another party other than Greens, where Green registration is available, will be considered.

"The Steering Committee will schedule a vote by the CC for approval of individual facilitators. No Facilitator who failed to receive at least 50%+1 of the approval vote will be permitted to facilitate the CC meetings.

"Facilitators with the highest approval ratings will be given preference when assigning facilitators. The ANMC will strive to schedule two facilitators for any given time period to ensure backup if needed. Gender balance is strongly encouraged. The ANMC will notify the CC of the facilitation schedule no later than two weeks before the national meeting."

Proposal

Please Vote Yes Or No On Whether To Approve OLIVIA CADAVAL To Serve As One Of The Facilitators Of The 2007 GPUS Annual Meeting.

Resources

Olivia Cadaval was born in Mexico City, Mexico in 1942 but has lived in the USA since
1963. She is a Curator for the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage
which you may know for the annual two-week Folklife Festival on the National Mall for two
weeks in late June and early July. As part of that, she designs Festival programs,
negotiates with potential participants, and presents the participants in both formal and
informal Festival settings to the public. She is active in several grassroots social
justice organizations and is on the boards of several grassroot cultural organizations.
She is an active member of the DC Statehood Green Party.

Neither Olivia Cadaval nor Dave Bosserman have been trained in meetings facilitation but have come by their
practice through doing it. They facilitated a plenary of the GPUS in the Tucson 2007
National Meeting. They are not associated with any particular group or faction in the
GPUS.
