Establishing weekly+ policy maker email workshops

Starting by meeting up for co-working to message policymakers in different countries/organizations like the EU. The value of emails to policy makers is insane .

Future:

Collecting templates in different languages
Streamlining process especially finding the correct people and their emails
Collecting data over the success rate of different emails

I will start running this with @Sev this week but would be super excited if someone else possibly in different timezones or sub-discords was doing it as well or took over at some point. If you have any questions also feel free to tag us and anyone else in help-wanted-question or dm (though then other people can't direcly learn from it/provide input).

Would it be correct to tag the volunteer team here?

Thanks you so much for organizing this, I’ll create discord events later

The volunteer role is given to all volunteers, it’s not some kind of meta team

Could you add this information to the event?

Messaging policymakers in different countries/organizations like the EU together. The value of emails to policy makers is insane.

If you write an email in a different language than English can you drop it here (Establishing weekly+ policy maker email workshops) ?
Also, any data on which politicians answered how to what would be interesting, you can dm it to me and we will figure out a way for how to efficiently collect it.

You could also use it for the announcement.
