Agenda
Seeds for Change plan to base an agenda for the day on answers to these questions:

Consensus and Facilitation Workshop  What do you want to get out of the workshop? What areas of consensus and facilitation would you like us to cover? For ideas of useful skills and theory have a look at our free resources online. What is your experience of consensus decision making? and meeting facilitation? Anything else you'd like to tell us? 

These questions were on the agenda for the Committee meeting on 26th January 2010 but fell off, are were asked again by email on 1st Feb. If anyone who would like to come to this event can answer these questions it would really help, please send you answers to [mailto:chris@transitionsheffield.org.uk chris@transitionsheffield.org.uk].

Some thoughts on the agenda were posted to the list on 6th January 2010 and 29th January 2010.

History
At the Hazelhurst CSA Committee 2009-12-03 it was agreed that Chris would write to Seeds for Change to ask if they would be able to run a Consensus Decision Making workshop for the project. On Saturday 5th December 2009 Seeds for Change replied to say that they are "keen to do a consensus workshop with your group providing we can make suitable arrangements for us all".
