+There are several Social Forum events scheduled in Global South countries this coming year and we already been invited to do tech work at some of them. We should continue providing this support work to the Social Forum movement as a strategic initiative on our part.
+ 1. Global South Initiative 
+The Hemispheric Initiative, particularly around Climate Change, was among our most successful work. At the same time, given the political changes, we see a need to expand that focus: allowing us to work in the entire Global South as we've done somewhat this year. So we're proposing changing the focus of our world-wide work.
  1. Bring on one part-time staff member to concentrate on server maintenance work
+One of the difficulties we encounter in day to day work is the tension produced by various areas of task pulling active members, especially Jamie, in many directions. Server maintenance work -- an almost constant activity -- is certainly one of these. MF/PL finally has the money to hire a qualified techie part-time to take on some of this responsibility and we are producing doing that.
  1. Strengthen and Expand Support and Technologists Team
+This is already organization and functioning and it has already made a huge difference in our work. 
  1. Launch and conduct Praxis Project's People of Color Techie Training Institute
  1. Increase membership to 800
