Brief presentation on Fashion Revolution Denmark
News of Fashion Rev DK: Skat report is done in June/July. There was a discussion about Skat report related to receiving some grants, specially from the projects of Fyn. We are registered as a non profit organisation, the report every year will show we are not making profit. During the year Nazarena and Rikke have been coordinating some events involving grants. The finances has been reviewed by Marek, that generated the reports. 2 years ago we received a fine for not reporting to skat correctly. It is planned for future work to make the organisation more stable by creating different roles and split the different tasks in the board.
The active projects are: The website, Membership scheme, and Newsletter. We are having some problems for not having a credit/debit card to make some payments.
Rikke presented that the activity from Fyn was approved. 27th August. Klima Folkemødet. There will be workshops, talks, and fashion runway.
Josephine K raise the concern that the country coordinators / regional coordinators are doing a lot of activities for the organisation, that is not shared public to the rest of organisation. We agreed that it should be shared more often in the slack, with small updates of the projects. That would improve the transparency, and can give help to the different activities.
Global Fashion Revolution update
News of the global organisation: Up to now there was headquarters of Fashion revolution, and it got dissolved in the last month. It gives more power to the local comities. It removes unnecessary bureaucracy. The legal entity will transition to a Federation that will take place in the Netherlands. Some questions about emails, or drives, or websites are still pending, the “transition committee” will take care of it. For now it should not affect Fash Rev DK. It should be not be public announcement because the situation is still on process, we dont want to create confusion.
Presentation and approval of the board’s annual report
The bank account situation. We have 4 bank accounts: Mobilepay, Copenhagen Project account, Fyn Project account, and GoFundMe fundraising account. Money from the fundraising was used on mend in public, is going to be used on the website, and Naza salary.

- Interns & Volunteers: Cecilia, Julia, Olivia, Cabe
Nazarena made a summary of the different possitions:
Josephine K made a clarification that the Board takes decisions and has a strategic vision of the organisation. But the execution of the plan is moved to the members of the organisation. The position of the board is to coordinate and facilitate the activities happens. Josephine K raise the concern of having conflict of interests when part of the board is getting paid for their activities in the organisation. There is a concern for having a position for treasurer that also executes the financial tasks, it was proposed to dived it into different people.
Nazarena raise her concern of doing her position as country coordinator and also participating as member lead and other positions of the board. Her work load is higher than what is expected from a country coordinator.
Review of received proposals / Board election
Josephine L, Agusta, and Marek leaves the board.
Proposals to be part of the new board: Fran, Azurra, Nazarena (if is necessary).
Josephine K will reflect about being part of the board and move the decision to the future.
Josephine K has some concerns that will interfere her position on the board with her activities at the organisation. Josephine would be up to be part of the board, but she would like to discuss the strategy of the board.
Josephines K thinks that some tasks should be moved from the board to people that are not in the board. Board responsibility is to coordinate the efforts and not to execute. Josephine K is worried that being part of the board will imply to have a lot of work.
