PPI Summer General Assembly Recap

Thanks to everyone who came to the GA. This GA had the largest number of Pirates from a wide variety of countries in a long time. We held quorum with 9 parties voting. In addition, a lot of old and familiar friends came by to visit. In total about 15 different countries were represented. As usual we discussed our continued UN engagement, support for Pirate activities, publication of policy blogs, Think Twice 5, PPI’s finances, membership fees, and the need to keep the organisation accessible to both established and emerging Pirate parties. A statute amendment to alter the statutes to weighted voting, one that would reduce the vote of non-paying …

GA Will Start at 13:00 UTC, Proceedings and Motions will begin at 14:00 UTC

The GA schedule for June 20th is now being updated. Based on the feedback received so far, there appears to be support for scheduling the GA in the early afternoon UTC. This schedule gives both western and eastern time zones a reasonable opportunity to participate. It would correspond to 09:00 in Chile, 15:00 for much of Europe, and 23:00 in Sydney. This appears to be the most balanced option currently available. We therefore announce the following preliminary schedule for the General Assembly: 13:00 UTC – Registration and quorum confirmation 14:00 UTC – Formal opening of the General Assembly 18:00 UTC – Planned closing time There are no elections for this …

General Assembly June 20, 2026 Feedback Survey

The next PPI General Assembly is approaching, and there are several organizational points that still need to be finalized. The GA has already been published, but without a confirmed time. We now need to agree on the schedule and make sure all parties and delegates receive the necessary information. As part of the preparation, we need to update Discourse (https://ga.pp-international.net/), publish the proposed statute amendments, and collect delegate information. One proposal is to start sometime between 8:00 and 16:00 UTC. We also ask for your parties to update us on any motions or any other business that you would like to share for the GA. We expect a relatively long …

General Assembly Will Take Place on June 20th

Pirate Parties International will hold a Special General Assembly (GA) on June 20, 2026. The meeting is being called following a special request from the Czech Pirates and other PPI members. The GA will take place online. At the PPI Board meeting on May 5, 2026, the Board agreed that it was necessary to call the GA without delay. The main reason is an urgent technical transition. PPI’s current technical services contract is ending on June 30, 2026, and the organization must decide how to ensure the continued operation of its communication, website, email, and related infrastructure. The Board also discussed the need to bring broader questions to the membership, …

January 2026 PPI GA Location Discussion

We are debating where to hold our General Assembly (GA) in January 2026. The Board considered holding a physical event in Warsaw, Prague, and Potsdam/Berlin. We are open to any reasonable offers. The event will also be taking place online, and the physical event may be a small or large event. Technically more than one physical event is acceptable considering the global needs of our organization. Please let a PPI representative know by October 19th if your party would like to host the GA. We will announce the location(s) of the GA the following week.
