What is the Indigo Collective? A tight-knit community that produces creative work under a universally-applicable collective theme.
Purpose:
To educate over lesser-known topics from a variety of angles under the theme.
To foster inspiration, care, and awareness to the public.
To reduce barriers for access and production of creative work.
To build dedicated networking opportunities for the broader community.
To carve a space that takes care of each other and equitably provides a safe place for expression.
Goals:
Provide support and some amount of funding to a yield of {X} projects started in the collective.
Work out collaborative partnerships with various organizations, businesses, and firms to build continuous funding and services for our collective members to use.
Accept all potential and interested candidates who exhibit they would be a best-fit for the collective.
Use our non-profit as outreach and build opportunities for Austin-non-UT creatives to participate in the work the collective does.
Provide future employment opportunities to creatives broadly through the non-profit to support and foster an environment where it is possible to follow creative passions in the midst of an environment that devalues creative work
Produce creative work under the organization that deviates away from commoditization and focuses on its meaning and intentionality
Build accountability measures in place through our Resolution and Compliance branches.
Each member will be seen as equal to each other, regardless of the work they do.
The collective will have two branches, Logistics, and Resolution and Compliance. A member in one of these branches cannot be a member of the other branch to avoid conflicts of interest.
Logistics:
Responsible for the functioning of the organization.
Takes care of background procedural work in regards to budgeting, marketing, working with community members/external organizations, and providing production support to projects.
There will be a position called “Collective Organizer”, which is solely responsible for the coordination of the branch and initiating tasks. Other than that, they are an equal member of the branch.
In any event a policy or action done by logistics is investigated by Resolution and Compliance, the final decision by R&C will be binding.
Resolution and Compliance:
Responsible for resolving disputes inside of the organization.
This branch will be responsible for reviewing policies, complying with relevant policies in the event of notification, and any and all reports made to the organization.
For every and all reports, a proper investigation will take place. Assignment of investigators (members of the branch) will attempt to choose non-conflicting members.
There will be a position called “Lead Adjudicator”, which is responsible for coordinating the branch and making final resolutions in the event a dispute was appealed with sufficient reason and evidence.
This branch is not equipped to investigate claims it does not have governance over (see: Title IX investigations), nor making decisions that have involved other outside agencies. In any event, it will defer investigation and decisions to outside governing agencies accordingly, and a determination made will be the recommendation the branch uses for its own decision.
