> * Vasna: Many of us are restricted by our

> these explicit guiding principles within these

> * Ashish: Agreeing with Vasna, as one of the
> reasons behind PEDAGOG was to create an
> aspirational space, to subtly push and learn
> from each other. These ethics can be a guide
> to what could be.
> * Rama: These ethics can be a reference while
> critiquing the institutional constraints faced
> by many of us.
> * Ashish: the group can also play the role of
> advocacy such as with statements of solidarity.
> * Sonali: On Ashish’s point of solidarity, it
> can be hypocritical to advocate for
> anti-capitalist ideas while having comfortable
> jobs. This network can play a role in
> promoting alternative livelihoods and real
> alternatives.
> * Ashish: PEDAGOG is also supposed to challenge
> our ‘comfortable’ notions, such as finding a
> balance between lack of remuneration,
> following our interests, and well-paying jobs.
> * Irene: There is an imbalance of contributions
> within this group, there may be a need to push
> people further and become more strict with the
> members who don't contribute.
> * Ashish: Agreeing with the point made by Irene,
> one view can be to look at the network as a
> long term project instead of a short term
> project. There is progress being made by some
> working groups.
>
> *Moving Forward*
> * *Group 1* will look to hold a meeting in the
> coming month. Call for volunteers to be sent
> out to the larger group for help. Ashish will
> try to loop Franco and Pallav in.
> * *Group 2* is working on a questionnaire for
> members, Melanie will also assist the group.
> * *Group 5* has already put together the ethics
