Draft Term Plan, Structure and Tasks

Based on the submitted draft

Introduction

While working on the 5year work-plan in view of the 2029 European elections, the board needs a short term plan in the wake of the 2024 European elections to stabilize the organization and lay the groundwork for its development. The current board term will end with the February 2025 Council Meeting, with a November 2024 Council Meeting to authorize any of the groundwork if necessary.

The two main lines of development include the PPEU’s Community and its Network. In this term, the objective will be to establish a structure allowing for pirate involvement, and seeing through essential work for the organization to develop as a base on which to build the initiative and the European Pirate Community at large.

As part of the kick starting process, an initial structure will be setup, with several departments, coordinated by the board, managed by team leaders, and working towards the short term and long term goals of the organization.

Here is a base layout of the Structure and actions to be carried out in the short term.

Base Structure

The working structure of the European Pirate Party is divided in several units, each of them coordinated by a member of the Board, tasked with overseeing the ongoing work to report on it.

Additionally, in each of them, there is at least a Unit Leader, managing the efforts and realization of tasks, divided between each Teams composing the Unit and their members, or members of the unit. If the Unit gets big, it would be possible to have Team Leaders.

Being a Leader or member of the Board and affected to a specific component doesn’t prevent from being involved in the work in other areas as a simple pirate.
