How to Do Democracy Week continues Friday, 05/22 with Day 5 — when we learn how to write a resolution that actually does something.

Resolutions are how our chapter turns deliberation into action. They create accountability, establish a democratic mandate, and make sure our decisions stick. If you've ever wondered how to move something from an idea to an official chapter commitment, this is the session for you.

Day 5 covers:

→ Why write a resolution? Codifying decisions, accountability, democratic mandate

→ Structure: rationale (whereas), action (be it resolved) — traditional & modern styles

→ Writing tips: small chunks for debatability, accountability clauses, built-in reassessment, future-proofing

→ Review example resolutions: what works and what doesn't
