Living Democracy » Textbooks » Student handout 7.3: Task: drafting a statute for the sports club
  1. Draft a set of rules (Article 1, Article 2, Article 3, etc. …) that settle the following questions:
    • How should the funds be distributed between the groups?
    • Who decides how the funds are to be distributed?
    • Should the groups be given rights of autonomy?
    • How should the principle of non-discrimination be applied – to protect the rights and interests of the majority and the minority? 
    • … (if you wish, include further questions that you think are important).
  2. Prepare a presentation of your statute that addresses these questions. Write your rules, in note form if necessary, on an A4 sheet that you can attach to the matrix.
  3. These questions will serve as a checklist to compare your results to those of the other groups (see student handout 7.4).
