The 3/9/07 revision of the proposed 1-Year GIWG Work Plan and Budget was sent to the Finance Committee and many other GPCA coordinators on or around 3/9/07. It contains 3 proposals: The first tells how the GPCA may build coalition with 100 Green nonprofit organizations. The second tells how the GPCA may reimburse activators for building coalitions. The third tells how the GPCA may reimburse coordinators for implementing the GPCA Bylaws. These proposals may be presented to the General Assembly by a different committee. If any of these proposals is missing from the budget, it shall be presented separately by the GIWG at the convenience of the General Assembly.
