The W-BAD Concept

As with the concept for participation, the functional concept for W-BAD is simple. Characteristic of many organisations, the platform is based on a pyramid-type structure, which operates as follows.

Direction and focus are overseen by the general organiser. The delegating of tasks is filtered down and coordinated through admin. Local events are carried out by both National Representatives in respective participating countries and US State Representatives in respective participating US States. Participants contribute through activism efforts, supporting their local representatives. Individuals participate in their own way and share information accordingly.

This aligns with the W-BAD ethos: ‘By the People for the People’ where the purpose is to empower the people and enable their voices to carry over into the public domain with a view towards creating positive change – that is the concept of W-BAD.
