Overview
A membership presence of minimum 20 members in a city or region will entitle the formation of ADI local chapter. ADI brand will continue as a prefix followed by City or Region name, as a nomenclature system for chapters. The local city or region name is highlighted to create a sense of local pride, participation, induce local design institutions, industry and people.Any city where the strength of ADI or members is less than 20, design professional & other members shall associate themselves with the nearest convenient Chapter.
Memberships for ADI will be always collected at Chapter level. Chapter governance will be through a locally elected Chapter Managing Committee which will function autonomously, but at predetermined schedules submit detailed report on activities done, planned, quarterly financial statements and audited statement of accounts to the NEC.
Chapters will also work towards infusing local concerns, issues, economy, geography & culture specific activities and may hold independent events like e.g., Delhi Design Week or Pune Design Festival or any other as may be thought and created by various Chapters.
Structure
ADI has been envisioned as a pan-India body with a federal governing structure.
Key components governing the society would be;
- a. The general body of members
- b. National executive council or committee
- c. Regional Chapters and zones
ADI will be governed at central level by an elected National Executive Council and Chapter level by an elected Chapter Managing Committee for governance under direct control and supervision of the National Executive Council (NEC).
ADI will generate the strength for its activities through member participation at Chapter level (city) and also at central level. Each Chapter will be referred as ADI, City [for e.g., ADI, Bangalore or ADI, Pune ] in order to excite participation at city level in economic and geography centered clusters supported by the industry, design institutions and trade in those city regions.
The National Executive Council will monitor the budget distribution and other financial matters along with office bearers of the local chapters. In order to enhance participation, each chapter will be represented at the NEC through a maximum of two members appointed from the City Design Association Chapter Managing Committee following the applicable election rules.
All National and local chapter managing committees will be elected bodies through a detailed electoral process as per the rules and regulations of ADI. The present National Executive Council is ad-hoc and shall oversee the initial formation till elections.
