Joint Congress

On this page you will find all information about the joint gsection of the Interim Congress at March 28. Go to this page for information on the DWARS congress section.

It's time again for an extra congress! This year, we will hold the Intermediate Congress at March 28 in beautiful Zwolle. Then we will be guests of the Nieuwe Buitensociëteit ZwolleStation Square 1, vlak om de hoek van station Zwolle. Dit congres zal voor het eerste deel (tot ongeveer 12.00) bestaan uit tegelijkertijd een normal DWARS-congres en een normal JS-congres, daarna is er een gezamenlijk congres van DWARS en de Jonge Socialisten. Dit congres is de ideale gelegenheid om je vrienden van DWARS en de JS bij elkaar te zien, en nieuwe mensen te ontmoeten. Ook kun je invloed uitoefenen op het reilen en zeilen van, en op de fusie tussen, de twee verenigingen. Voor het gezamenlijk congresdeel gebruiken we het gezamenlijk Congreshandboek (deze wordt binnenkort gepubliceerd), lees deze vooral even van tevoren door.

With a motion, you can call on the boards to do or not do something or speak out for or against something. Motions can be submitted to 10 March. After the deadline closes, you can submit topical motions. A topical motion is a motion on an issue that has become topical only after the close of the motion deadline. The joint congress body decides together with the presidium of the day whether the motion is topical. Motions can also be subject to amendments.
