One part of the activities in the TCA are the Transnational Meetings. It is the basement, who managed all communication and cooperation between the TCA-Partners. All tasks in the TCA, for instance: good-practice-guide, websites and internal evaluation and monitoring of the TCA-activities will be discussed and decided in this circle of transnational coordinators. The TCA-partner of: “Woman from chance to reality” creates a time table to meet and visit one another regularly. In the response of the single TCA-Partners are following tasks:

3. Arrangements for decision-making (Edit)

The modalities of decision respect the principles of transparency and have to adapt to the structure of the partnership, based on flexibility and shared responsibilities.

Consequently, a democratic style will be used to make decisions that will look for the most satisfactory modalities of mediation. A research of needs of each DP will be started up, remarking the common subjects and consequently decisions could be worked out.

If the democratic style was not enough, each DP could contact his national structure of technical assistance to have a specific and competent support to solve problems.

The host DP will be the moderator of the meeting.

 

4. Working language(s) (Edit)

 

English. All DP’s will send at least one English speaking person to the meetings, and will name an English writing contact person for the project development.
