Conseil de Validation

Certaines décisions dépassent le cadre des missions du Collectif de Coordination. Il arrive souvent que ces décisions doivent être validées rapidement, et qu'il ne soit pas possible de mobiliser l'intégralité des membres de DiEM25 pour organiser un vote dans un délai serré. C'est pour cette raison qu'un Conseil de Validation est institué. Il est composé de 100 membres de DiEM25 tirés au sort parmi l'ensemble des membres du mouvement. Pour en savoir plus à propos du Conseil de Validation de DiEM25 (VC), n'hésitez pas à consulter les Principes Organisateurs du mouvement.

According to the new Organising Principles, any DiEM25 member with voting rights (i.e. verified identity, up-to-date membership fee) can be randomly picked for the Validating Council at any time. You do not need to apply anymore.

Voici les personnes qui composent actuellement notre Conseil de validation :

Dimitris Daskalakis France I am a Greek national that lived in the UK for several years and moved to France in 2018. I work in IT. I was never really involved in a political movement before but some years ago I came to realise that there is absolutely nothing to expect from traditional politics and unless we do not self-organise, our future will be distopic.
