 +a) Update on the ratification of the Common European Election Program (CEEP) and the Common Pirate Strategy (CPS) for the 2024 European Elections. See overview here 8 . 
 +PPSI: I agree with the PPCZ that some points that needs to be discussed further in the CEEP. 
  
-**1. Decisions without discussions**+b) 2024 European Parliament Elections. 
 +b1) Election of Pirate lead candidates For the Upcoming elections. 
 +- Candidates: Anja Hirchel and Marcel Kolaja 
 +Presentation: Anja https://discourse.european-pirateparty.eu/t/candidacy-anja-hirschel/591/2 
 +Marcel cannot be with us but he has the internet and joins us from a restaurant. His main points are rejecting fascists, worrying about the environment and fundamental freedoms. Leading Europe...  The Commission is the next logical step. It is our turn to become architects for the future of Europe. (applause) 
 +MarkAnthony asks about the cordon sanitaire. Marcel doesn't believe fascists and populist parties negotiate in good faith and it's not very useful talking to them. He prefers to seek dialogue with parties that share our democratic values.  
 +Rudolf: Speech/comment about a general feelung of unsafety in Europe.(wrt current gov. in Slovakia) 
 +Jan: UBI was mentioned in Anja's speech and it seeems to be an important/main topic for PPEU and PPI, but individual parties do not support it (like PPCZ, where it has been referred as a taboo). 
 +Alessandro: it is a part of CEEP. 
 +Mikulaš: we are electing a potential commissioner, the commission controls about 1% of EU gdp. There is no money for UBI at the commission level. It is unfair to ask a commissioner about this. 
 +Marcel:  Complex concepts which will ever have to be much more thoroughly researched before making any actual steps in the economy. I also think that it may turn out at some point in the evolution of the society that this would be a concept that we would have to adopt sometime in the future, maybe, maybe a distant future. But still I believe that that concept is worth exploring, keeping an eye on the job market and automation.  
 +Phillip: Someday we will again have peace in Europe, when that happens, the process has already begun towards EU enlargement. Notably, EU membership for Ukraine and Moldova have been pushed near the top of the agenda. What are the main challenges you would with such an enlargement?  
 +Marcel: poor connection :) 
 +Anja: We have to define what is Europe and what is not, and this is a process that is currently happening. We have to make sure what the core of the European Union is and not let the right wing parties in the radicalist parties upbring and nationalism that will split us into several interests and and single ideas.

-Given the public interest in the topics of Migration and Asylum it might be useful to display the parts covering those topics in a separate Chapter, instead of having it included in the end of the Foreign Affairs chapter\\+b) Vice Chairs
  
-Proposal: the 2024 CEEP should replace the 2019 CEEP on the PPEU webpage. Mab will be asked to help with this.\\ +Maija (question to all the VC candidates): what would your focus as VC be in terms developing the ogranisation? 
-Mab: makes sense to put it online, since the time to ratify/comment expired. Suggests to make the sections in the Foreign Affairs chapter named Migration and one named Asylum presented as a separate chapter labeled Migration and Asylum on the on the PPE website.\\+Veronika: Continue my work on CEEP and take PPEU trought EU elecitons. Have previous experience with campaings and managing the PP bank accounts. Work for NGO, which gives me time and freedom to help the organsation grow. 
 +Anja: Collaboration with Mikulaš, to gain more momentum for media recognition. Would like to support his work. 
 +Florian: It just for having movement in the PPEU work. Basically the application and systems to post good collaboration and then try to get as much activity as possible.

 +Jan Mareš: io, se, mep2, sk, cz5, cat, fi, de2//14

 +Tim Ledig: fr, sk, yep2, fi//5- not elected
  
-It was discussed by the previous board to set up a donations scheme to improve income for the organisation. As people are more likely to want to donate during election times, it would make sense to do so rapidly.\\+Petra- 20 
 +Florian- 19 
 +Sara-18 
 +Giuseppe- 17 
 +Jan- 14 
 +Sebastian- 6 
 +Tim- 5
  
-Proposal: with the help of Florian, Alessandro should look into how we can set up a donation scheme in line with Luxembourgish laws, and based on this prepare a report and a decision for the next board meeting.\\ +Gregory (comment on Tim candidacy): letting the council know Tim L. was not supported by Internation coord of the German party nor the board. 
-     + 
-Yes:   Florian, cal, Alessandro, Anja, Veronika, Sara, Petra, Jan, Mikuláš \\  +6. Elections of the Code of Conduct Council

 +Umber: sk, se, cz5, mep2, io, de2, fr, lu2, ype2, cat //18
  
-Based on our experience for the last two years it seems clear that the Board don't have the capacity to prepare in person Council meetings by ourselves. As we still value the chance of physical meetings it might be worth discussing how we can involve the Member parties in hosting Council meetings. \\ +PPFI abstain on the vote
-Sara: Is there a policy document on organizing the Council meetings?\\ +
-Veronika:  I am volunteering to make one so that we can use it in the future and we are also it will be based on a checklist that we use for Czechs GAs. Can present it a the next board meeeting/Mattermost.\\ +
-Mab: We do have Rules of procedure, but are a bit outdated. Need to be updated, suggest two for online and hybrid meetinigs. The old one was fit for physical meetings, whuch are no longer orgnaized.\\ +
-Mikulaš: Started collecting process documentation a while ago, sent the link to Wiki. It would make sense to add the info in the same document.\\ +
-https://wiki.ppeu.net/doku.php?id=ppeu:rfcs\\+
  
-**4. AOB**\\ +7. Closing of the meeting 
-4.1 Setup a handover meeting with former board members (Cedric, Elisabet, Mia)\\+a) AOB
  
-If no one objects, Florian can get working on it (with help pls).\\ +PPFR proposal: European Pirate Parties agree to the principle of a common press release in view of the European Elections which would be signed by their top candidates and sent to national press. The subjects and its content are still to be decided. A working group on the matter could be set up with PPEU's collaboration.  
-mab : Individual or group handover ? Might be easier to do individual handover with personal schedules, and maybe full board attendance wouldn't be necessary.\\ +Mikulaš: Proposes to discuss this within the board. For international cooperation conntact Mab or the MEPs PR, to support your national campaigns.
-Alessandro : concur, bilaterals (smart word I learned from the EU Commission) might be the way.\\ +
-Veronika: set meetings according to who wants to work on the topic the board members were responsible for.\\+
  
-4.2 who is responsible for our media accounts?\\ +Bastian: Asks about election of lay orditors. 
-Jan: I can volunteer for this as it has been a slump in activity there\\ +Veronika: Elected for 3 years.
-Mikulaš: We should create a social media strategy.\\+
  
-Meeting closed at: 11:39 CET\\  +Andrei NL in chat: For those present in real life, when and where is the presentation tomorrow?  
-Next meeting:  March 21st, 18:30 CET\\+Mab: The presentation tomorrow was cancelled a month ago due to a few different issues. It was mentioned on discourse, but perhaps not as explicit as it could have been. sorry about that.
