Make the Global Degrowth Day public

Hey, we included the new email address into the flyer versions for EN, PT and DE, and did some layouting (only on our locale PC). We created a new folder “Flyer” where the PDF for these documents are stored. Note we tried to use a languages dependent title, as we assume these docs are now sent around…

–> Please have a look at these versions, if you realize errors, please let us know. Maybe also the portuguese version could be renamed @AnaP ?

And by the way: we also created new folders for “Collection of Ideas”, “How to organize”, where the corresponding PDFs are stored.

Question: Do you see a problem, that we don’t have access to the email account yet? Should we wait for this before we send out the flyer?

@AnaP we realized, that there was a section at the end slightly changed. Can you please look at your portuguese version again and check? Thanks!

In english the relevant section is:
Participate !
On our website https://www.degrowth.info/en/globalday/ you can find a collection of ideas with examples and helpful hints – how to organize events, how to do PR etc.

You already know what you are going to do? You can publish all events yourself on the website – if possible by 24th May 2019.

Who we are
This event is organized be the working group “Activists and Practitioners”, see degrowth.info/en/groups/ for description and contact information. New members are welcome!

Hi!
You are right, I didnt translate that part because it was not in the english version I had.
I just fixed it here: https://cloud.degrowth.net/apps/onlyoffice/47165
Could you make a new pdf?

Sorry I’ve been out of touch. Was travelling and sick, but I’m getting better.
I also got a small list of potential Portuguese partners, from degrowth activists in Lisbon! :slight_smile:
Shall I send them the call for partners myself, or should we (you?) do that using the new email address?

Another question, how to change the title of a document in the cloud?:confused: is it so obvious that I am overlooking it?

Greetings!

Ana

Hey everybody, please don’t hesitate to send out emails to the partner according to our spreadsheet https://cloud.degrowth.net/s/e5ZxRzyyo7QFN9X (as we want feedback from them by Feb 10th :slight_smile: ). Please insert your name (and date) in the sheet, so we don’t send anything twice.
You can use the templates (in folder texts) and attach the flyer PDF (in folder Flyer). The poster might be too heavy (3MB) to attach, but we made it available on our website (page: participate). Thanks!

I think that we can use our personal email for the partners that we know. I contacted Italian ones. Ana if you need the password of the email contact me privately and I will tell you.
Thanks!

Jean

As we are also collecting logos from our partners, we created a new folder in our cloud called “Partner Logos”. Please upload the logos you receive in there :slight_smile:

hey everyone,
FYI: I am still waiting for access to the email account to send mails to partners. If I wont have it by tomorrow, I will use the fairbindungs-mail for it as it is already taking too long.

best,
K

Sent by email.

Hello there, I can access the mail and am sending mails to partners, still having troubles with the cloud but trying to resolve them. As I cannot browse through the cloud I can’t look for it myself: is the call already translated in French, Spanish and Greek? best,
K

good news everyone: our subdomain is now working correctly!
https://globalday.degrowth.info and https://www.globalday.degrowth.info both now redirect to
https://www.degrowth.info/en/globalday/ and not to adopt a revolution anymore :wink:

Hey, looking at the partner contacts list, we are very good at the moment in sending out mails to partners.
Unfortunately it looks like we are lacking a bit of French and Spanish partners (besides research and degrowth).
On the link decrecimiento Salir de la adicción jerárquica, poner en el centro la vida there is a list of organizations, e.g. for Spain and France. Could somebody (who is proficient enough in one of those languages) send out mails to some of these and list them in our spreadsheet accordingly? For Spanish, maybe @Sara could help here? Who could volunteer for French?

Furthermore there is a proposal for Brazil on the list, but nobody volunteered so far (because of the language?). @AnaP could you take that one additionally?

And for the contact in Sweden: @tor-persson would it be possible to contact them?

Your help is highly appreciated!
So let’s hope we get the answers in time (by Feb 10th) - including their logos :slight_smile:

Yes, I will write to degrowth Brazil! :wink:

Hi @Kristina ! The call for participation is only in German, English and Portuguese, at the moment. If you know people who could translate it to Spanish, French, Greek… that would be great!

A post was split to a new topic: Translators group

For me it only works with http, not with https!

Yes you are right - it was a typo from my side: https is not working only http or www only…

Hej guys,
sorry, I have some family issues right now. I cannot promise I’ll be able to contribute a lot with the organisations / translations until the 10th. I will let you know in case I manage to add something at some point! Otherwise I’ll be back in about two weeks!

@Sara thanks for letting us know! Hope to see you back soon :slight_smile:

dont worry Sara, family is important and we have many people contributing here. I will ask some french speaking persons if they mind to translate…
