These are, tentatively, some of the tasks planned for volunteers. They may be general, or specific to the work for the Mahsa Act.
Good Practices
- Record on the forum. Minimize email and chats; try to do/ask/publish/etc everything on the forum.
- Record everything, record often. Record any questions, obstacles, achievements etc. On the forum‘s thread for the corresponding task.
- Don’t exhaust yourself. Record your work in a way that allows anyone else to pick-up where you left. Work as if you may go away for a few months, and someone else will take over!
- Record sources. Any sources you stumble upon, or means/mechanisms for finding them. On the forum.
