Ayuda

Una asamblea es un grupo formado por miembros de una organización que se reúnen periódicamente para tomar decisiones sobre un ámbito o área específica de la misma.

Las asambleas realizan encuentros, algunos son privados y otros son abiertos. Si son abiertos se puede participar en ellos (por ejemplo: asistiendo si el aforo lo permite, añadiendo puntos al orden del día, o comentando las propuestas y decisiones tomadas por dicho órgano).

Ejemplos: Una asamblea general (que se reúne una vez al año para definir las líneas principales de acción de la organización así como para escojer a sus órganos ejecutivos por votación), una consejo asesor de igualdad (que se reúne cada dos meses para realizar propuestas de cómo mejorar las relaciones de género en la organización), una comisión de evaluación (que se reúne cada mes para realizar el seguimiento de un proceso) o un órgano de garantías (que recoge las incidencias, abusos o propuestas de mejora de los procedimientos de toma de decisiones) son todo ejemplos de asambleas.

🌾 The Bootcampers Circle

Bootcamps Challenge Teams and Contributors

Acerca de esta asamblea

🌾 The SOILTRIBES Bootcampers Circle is the core working structure of our Community of Practice—a space where selected CoP members and invited actors gather around real-world soil-related challenges to learn, co-create, and activate systemic responses.

Each circle is built around a challenge selected through an open call, and forms a temporary, purpose-driven assembly that brings together diverse perspectives from across Europe.

Rather than a traditional workshop or expert group, the Bootcamp Circle is a living ecosystem of roles, designed to reflect ecological thinking, collaborative knowledge, and political imagination.

🌍 Why this Circle? The Power of Translocal Diversity

🌾 The Bootcampers Circle is rooted in five helix pillars, each bringing specific motivations:

  • Academia: to apply research, connect across disciplines, and explore policy impact

  • Business & Cooperatives: to innovate sustainably, adapt to regulations and climate risk

  • Society & Culture: to reimagine narratives, mobilize through arts, and promote soil culture

  • Environment & Activism: to protect ecosystems, reclaim agency, and connect struggles

  • Institutions & Policy: to design inclusive governance and test new forms of participation

Propósito de la acción

By connecting science, policy and lived experience, the Bootcamps aim to grow soil literacy as a collective capacity—enabling diverse actors to make informed decisions, shape better policies, and reclaim agency over how soil is managed and protected in their territories.

Ultimately, the Bootcamps support the emergence of new alliances and prototypes that contribute directly to the Soil Mission’s goals, from boosting soil carbon to restoring degraded land or improving the social governance of soils.
