==== Affiliate survey analysis ====
''What sticks out to you from the survey on the future of affiliate gatherings? 
''
* '''Inclusivity and Accessibility:''' There was a consensus on the importance of making events inclusive for all affiliates who wish to contribute or benefit, including addressing visa restrictions to facilitate participation.
* '''Annual Meeting and Rotation''': Participants expressed surprise at the widespread agreement to organize the meeting annually and rotate its location. This approach was seen as reducing visa stress, promoting diversity, and enabling broader participation.
*''' Hybrid Events''': While there were challenges in implementing hybrid events, such as logistical complexities, it was recognized as crucial for ensuring accessibility, especially for those unable to travel.
* '''Difference between User Groups vs. Chapters''': User groups showed more interest in organizing events despite Chapters having more resources, indicating potential strategy fatigue among larger affiliates.
* '''Movement Strategy''': There was a majority agreement among affiliates to discuss Movement strategy, with UGs showing particular enthusiasm for leading such discussions.
