OPPORTUNITIES TO PARTICIPATE IN UPCOMING UNA-ORLANDO ACTIVITIES

This page is intended for anyone who is interested in the connection between what is happening around the world and what is happening here at home.  and would like to engage with others to explore a variety of important issues.

Our goal is to inform ourselves with the best information available and use what we have learned to encourage others to inform themselves. With that goal in mind, there are several ways to participate in upcoming UNA-Orlando projects.

Online Meetings: On Sunday, January 28th, we will begin our schedule of online Planning and Organizing meetings. The purpose of the Planning and Organizing meetings is to discuss what needs to be done to ensure the success of all of our upcoming activities.

An official schedule will be released soon.

-

February 20-26 Topic Discussion: During the week of Monday, February 20 - Sunday February 26, we will hold our next Topic Discussion. The exact schedule will be ready soon.

For our Planning and Organizing meetings, only a small number of people are invited to attend. Our "Topic Discussion" events are our way to invite everyone and anyone to meet with us to explore topics related to one or several of our Featured Issues. This next Topic Discussion is:

"IDENTITY, INCLUSION, AND CONSENSUS: recognizing the differences and similarities among us, including all perspectives in the decision-making process, and finding agreement among us all."

We will create pages on the UNA-Orlando website that will provide information. Everyone is encouraged to familiarize themselves with the topic between now and the week that we hold the meetings.

MEETING PRESENTERS lead all discussion during the meetings

MEETING TECH SETUP MANAGERS ensure that all the technical details are managed before, during and at the close our online meetings. This includes opening and closing the Google Meet windows at the beginning and end of a meeting. It also includes providing our members access to the UNA-Orlando Google Drive folders

MEETING NOTETAKERS listen to the discussion to create a brief report that can be presented to anyone interested who was not able to attend the meeting

MEETING REPORTERS create the end-of-meeting report if the Meeting Notetakers don't create the report themselves

ROLES AVAILABLE: Chapter Administration

In addition to the roles mentioned above, a variety of roles exist that pertain to chapter administration. For now, there are two that are needed  more than others. They are:

DATA CAPTURE AND EXTRACTION MANAGERS use Google Sheets (almost the same as Excel) to process data that is received through our various onboarding forms (the Get Involved form, the Handshake Internship Request form, College Participation Interest form...)

ONBOARDING MANAGERS provide information information at different phases of the onboarding process for anyone who has expressed an interest in participating in UNA-Orlando activities
