AIW Committee Meeting, September 17, 2021
Dear all, I have summed up our AIW Committee Meeting of September 17, 2021: AIW Online Talkshop: James Mackay has suggested to have an additional online format, complementary to the American Indian Workshop (AIW), which will be held in-person annually, as far as hygienic rules allow in-person conferences. On suggestion of Thomas Jacobs, we decided calling it "AIW Online Talkshop." The plan is to have a one-day online event with an open format, where conveners can decide how to design it. The first Talkshop is planned for December 2022 by James Mackay. James Mackay, as the AIW Online Meeting Manager, has volunteered to support further Talkshops with his online meeting expertise. AIW Journal: Sonja Ross presented her plans for an AIW Journal to the Committee. The first step will be to put papers read at AIWs, on a closed platform for a peer-reviewed discussions. The platform should be accessible for AIW members only. It was suggested to call this platform "AIW Repository." Authors are free to publish their papers in scientific journals. The next step would be to develop an AIW Online Journal out of this. Markus Lindner suggested to ask Christian Feest, whether the "European Review of Native American Studies (ERNAS)" could be reactivated in this online form. Finances: It was discussed how to finance the journal and other AIW projects. The best solution would be to create a non-profit organization, which could plan and control financing these projects and financially supporting the AIW. A non-profit organization would have no effect on the personal income tax of the persons involved, while all other options would do so. Moreover, an organization, with a permanent membership and fixed membership fees, would make financial planning better calculable and more secure (e.g payment of rental fees for the AIW server). As there exist no EU regulations for a European (EU) non-profit organization yet, such an association has to be organized on a national level (e.g. as "Verein" in Germany). The AIW Committee will prepare a suggestion for such a non-profit organization for the next AIW Business Meeting. AIW Committee Meetings: Further online AIW Committee Meetings can be organized upon request from committee members by our AIW Online Meeting Manager James Mackay. *** I want to thank James Mackay for the perfect organization of this online AIW Committee Meeting!
