Fantastische Film Fuif

Dear all,

These are weird times, tough times. DWARS stands for a social world, but at a time when the socially good thing to do is precisely to keep social distance, that is not always easy. DWARS also likes sociability, and for that we had come up with all kinds of fun events, which we have now had to cancel. That isolation is difficult, some feel alone, others get caught up in (school) work (at home, that is) without that much-needed distraction and social contact. There are all great projects started, wonderful social and empathetic ways to help people, to connect, but still: loneliness is just pretty stupid. Fortunately, DWARS is also hopeful and optimistic. That's why your department board has come up with something: we'll just do it all nicely online!

Laat je speelgoed staan, schuif gezellig aan, en film kijken!

Welke dat wordt gaan we nog bepalen met z’n allen in de Off-Topic WhatsApp groep, waarschijnlijk wel een film met een vrijzinnig, groen, of sociaal sausje. Maar als jullie liever een Disneyfilm kiezen kan dat ook. Heb jij al een idee voor een film die je graag met ons wil zien? Email dan even Rens op veluwe.gelderland@dwars.org.

We present: the DWARS Gelderland Discord Server

Therefore, we have a Discord server. As long as cabinet rules (and possibly if DWARS chooses to continue a bit longer for safety) moneys, there is something to do on that server every week. In succession, we always organise drinks, something social, and a politically substantive discussion (so that means a game night every three weeks). In addition, you may also just hanging out on the server. That way, we will stay connected as DWARSers in Gelderland. During events, you will be expected to be quiet, but we will create separate channels for this (so you can also just chat in one part of the server, while an event is going on in another part of the server).

How do I get to those server?

Two ways! If you are a member of the announcements WhatsApp group, then you don't have to do anything. We will send a link in the WhatsApp group before each digital activity that allows you to become a member. Should you still need help, we will indicate in that app group how to reach us.
Are you not a member of the announcements WhatsApp group, Then fill in the form at the bottom of this page. Provide your email address or your Discord name, and we'll take care of it.

But I don't know how Discord works/have never done it?

Inclusion is an important value for DWARS, we want everyone to participate, and that also means we want to help everyone get on our server. Therefore, we want to guarantee that everyone succeeds. Are you in the announcements WhatsApp group? Then you will see who from the board you can send a message to help you. Aren't you? Fill in the form below and indicate where you need help, and we will contact you as soon as possible.
You can use Discord on mobile, tablet and on any computer.
