4 c) Evaluation EFPA structure discussion at PCM
STRUCTURE OPERATIVE PRACTICE
1. Is this structure delivering in accordance with the intentions when the GA decided it?
2. Is this structure delivering what EFPA needs, to achieve its political, professional and organizational goals?
3. Is it possible to keep the connection between EFPAs mission and the activity in such a large structure?
4. Is it possible to keep the connection between EFPAs mission and the activity in such a large structure?
1. What alternative structures are feasible?
2. How would the MAs commitment to EFPA look like if they did not have people in such a structure?
3. Would a professionalization (hiring experts in the HO, and project organize our work) be counter to the idea of volunteer work based on interests as a primary motivation to engage in EFPA?
NEEDS RESOURCES
1. Is it possible to keep the connection between EFPAs mission and the activity in such a large structure?
2. What would we not be able to do if we would not have this structure?
1. Is this structure (and its continued growth) sustainable economically and structurally?
2. Can the money which each MA spends on this structure be used in a different way that would achieve EFPAs goals better? (And would MAs be willing to spend this money (or is it available) for EFPA if we e.g. simplify the structure, and organize the work differently)
