<div dir="ltr">Dear Wisdom, <div><br></div><div>As explained in the email, the announcement was not "changed by someone" - what happened is that the list was sent without the votes of the full EC and our bylaws mandate that in such deliberations all representatives have to weigh in. Secondly, it would not be fair to just allocate a CROP without a proper call and announcement on the list - this would be the real lack of transparency. <br></div><div><br></div><div>The initial list had three names: Shahul and Benjamin as NCUC funded travelers and Dina as the CROP receiver, but having in mind the justification of our statement and also according to item 6 in <a href="https://www.ncuc.org/get-involved/travel-policy/">NCUC's Travel Policy</a> Benjamin would not be able to receive the funds given that he was one of NCUC's funded travelers for the Panamá meeting (even despite the fact that he was not able to attend the meeting for personal reasons). Hence the funded travelers list now has two names - Shahul and Dina. <br><br>As per your corruption and lack of transparency accusations, all EC deliberation was made in our list, feel free to take a look. Despite all that, NCUC EC welcomes your input and if in your opinion there is any point left without explanation, we would love sort that out. <br><br>Best, <br>Bruna <br><br><br> </div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">Em sex, 31 de ago de 2018 às 18:54, Wisdom Donkor <<a href="mailto:wisdom.dk@gmail.com" target="_blank">wisdom.dk@gmail.com</a>> escreveu:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Dear All,<div><br></div><div>I cant believe this, this cant be happening, How many days now the first announcement was made, for some one to turn around and announce a new list as potential travelers. </div><div>i disagree with the announcement of the new names.
