Every week the paid co-coordinators of The Icarus Project have a virtual meeting by conference call to talk about our progress with current projects and tasks related to the housekeeping duties that keep the Icarus Project thriving as an organization. We talk about our progress and needs in areas like: getting books and materials written, designed, printed, and distributed; supporting local icarus groups and college organizing efforts; paying bills, contractors, and other expenses; getting events organized; networking with allies and organizations; collaborating with volunteers and Icaristas of all stripes; funding sources; managing the website and web technologies, and much much more.
