OVERVIEW

The presentation of the Arts Collaboratory is a component that is related to both the mediums of communication; Web Site and AC Tam Tam, the fundraising group, the documentation group and to the ways in which the AC network is presented to the world.

The image at the right was produced in the AC Assembly in Kyrgyzstan in June of 2016.

It shows 3 points, which are listed below with comments or clarifications in parenthesis:

    1. AC TamTam

    2. Website

    3. Graphic Design

    4. Publications

    5. Manuals

    6. Videos / YouTube

    7. Fundraising

    8. Introductory Letters

    9. Briefs

    10. Blurbs (press)

  2. Audiences for presentations

    1. To itself (internal)

    2. To interested parties (visitors to web page)

    3. To funders (potential and existing)

    4. To general public

    5. To state parties (institutions)

    6. To inter-governmental organizations (UNESCO, EU, etc.)

  3. Questions (to be resolved either through the guidelines that will be produced in this document or that need to be addressed by other working groups or the AC Assembly.)

    1. Do we think of processing levels of presentation across the AC system?

      1. Local, Regional, Global (Is the presentation the same on all levels?

    2. Content management? Standardising of Content? (Should the content regarding the AC be standardized? What is the key information? Who will develop it? Coordinate with Documentation Group)

    3. Who presents in person? (Who are the spokespersons? Everyone in AC?)

      1. Guidelines should address the ethics of fundraising (what are our ethics about fundraising?) + fundraising (what should be presented to funders? Is the presentation of AC the presentation of the AC Network as an entity comprised of individual initiatives that form a group whose sum is greater than any individual group?) + present.

GUIDELINES

  1. The presentation of the Arts Collaboratory is the presentation of the totality of the ecosystem including the history of the AC, a description of the range of interests, projects and accomplishments that is represented by work of the groups in the network. (This strategy should be coordinated with the Fundraising Group. The word network may be changed depending upon the conclusions of the Legal Entity group and the decisions of the AC regarding the organizational structure.)

  2. The content of the presentation of the Arts Collaboratory should be standardized and consistent and carry the same core message at the local, regional and national levels.

    1. Details may deleted or emphasized depending on the purpose of the presentation.

  3. The presentation of the Arts Collaboratory should be integrated into other media platforms in which the individual initiatives are also included. (Tam, Tam and Web Page)

  4. The shorter or longer presentations of the AC should be developed considering different possible modes of presentation including, but not limited to the following:

    1. AC TamTam

    2. Website

    3. Graphic Design

    4. Publications

    5. Manuals

    6. Videos / YouTube

    7. Fundraising

    8. Introductory Letters

    9. Briefs

    10. Blurbs (press releases)

  5. When writing the content of the presentation of the Arts Collaboratory the different possible audiences should be taken into consideration. Some of the possible audiences are the following:

    1. To itself (internal)

    2. To interested parties (visitors to web page)

    3. To funders (potential and existing)

    4. To general public

    5. To state parties (institutions)

    6. To inter-governmental organizations (UNESCO, EU, etc.)

  6. A system for translation and style checking should be implemented for the development of the content of the presentation.

    1. The native speakers of French, Spanish and English in the AC Ecosystem should be considered for these tasks. If they are not available, outside translators and style checkers may be employed.

    2. It may be a good idea to set up network of ‘Study Buddy Writers’

  7. As presentation opportunities arise for international and transnational organizations the spokesperson(s) should be selected by the AC Group. (to be coordinated with Fundraising Group).

  8. Each organization in the AC ecosystem should have the right to use the AC presentation materials to promote the work of their organization while respecting the AC family principles and ethics.

  9. Costs for participating in presentations, if they require travel and lodging etc., that will benefit the entire AC ecosystem should be assumed by the ecosystem. (The form of payment and this idea in general has not yet been approved by the assembly.)
