ICOM needs your input, comments and questions
ICOM is you, ICOM is its members

Since December 2006 a working group has been drafting a Strategic Plan for
ICOM for 2008-2010 which is designed to identify the key directions of our
organization over the next triennium. We have been guided in our work by
several words that grew out of the review of the 2005-2007 Strategic Plan:
effective, flexible, focussed, realistic and simple.

The working group includes representatives from National and International
Committees: Henry Bredekamp and David Fleming, representatives from ICOM’s
Secretariat: John Zvereff (former Secretary General), Piet Pouw, and
Jennifer Thévenot, members from the Executive Council: Nancy Hushion,
Elisabet Olofsson (chair), Martin Schaerer, Michel van Praet and Rick West,
and Isabel Vinson from UNESCO.  Alissandra Cummins and Jack Lohman (chair
SP2005-07 Review Committee) are ex officio. 

ICOM’s Strategic Plan must have meaning for every member and every component
of ICOM - each national committee, international committee, regional
alliance and affiliated organisation - each member of the network, 
a word you will see used often in the Plan. At the same time, such a Plan is
an over-view and does not mention each and every aspect of what ICOM is.
Each of us should be inspired to identify how best we can contribute to the
success of the Plan. 

We are already planning for the Plans beyond 2008-2010 when everyone will be
more involved in the early planning stages; the Advisory Committee will work
on future plans as a regular topic.

Due to timing pressures, the 2008-2010 Strategic Plan has been developed by
a smaller number of representatives. But we have carefully built in
opportunities to allow for your comments and questions on the attached
draft.  

Please forward these to [log in to unmask], by 15th July at latest, to allow
us to incorporate them in time for Vienna!
