Working Groups and Task Forces

Working Groupd (WGs) and Task Forces (TFs) are the main operational units of LandAware. WGs and TFs are formed to discuss and
address specific topics and to fulfill specific working objectives, falling within the main scope of LandAware and considering the general objectives stated in this CA.

  • WGs are set up with a clear mandate, typically associated with continuous activities and multiple deliverables.
  • TFs are associated with one-off deliverables and a defined period of activity.

The establishment of a WG or a TF, the definition of its working objectives and the monitoring of its activities is in charge of the EC. The EC decisions are confirmed, or amended, by the GA during every ordinary meeting.
Each WG or TF is composed of:
– one or two coordinators, WG-Chairs or TF_Leaders;
– members interested in the WG activities.
All members can be elected WG-Chairs or TF-Leaders, upon nomination or auto-nominations accompanied by a working proposal for the activities to conduct, to be submitted to the EC at any time. WG-Chairs and TF-Leaders are initially appointed by the EC, and then confirmed or amended
by the GA, at each ordinary meeting. WG-Chairs and TF-Leaders shall ensure that WGs and TFs meet as often as the business requires, act consistently, efficiently and as a collegiate body to fulfill the established working objectives.
All members can ask to join any active WG or TF. The requests are evaluated by WG-Chairs or TFLeaders considering the proven expertise of the requesting member to actively contribute to the mandate of the WG or TF. At any time, WG-Chairs and TF-Leaders may terminate the participation to a WG of members who do not participate in the group activities or whose actions are in contrast with the objectives of the WG or TF. Against such decisions, members may appeal to the EC, who finally decides on whether to reinstall the member in the WG or TF.
