Following the derogation from 2024 and discussions during the mandate, we propose to amend statutes to not create another derogation.
Current limitation of 1/4 means that only 1 person over 30 can be elected.
Quoting last year's reasoning: "There may be years when there are more quality candidates who are above 30 years of age, and rejecting them could be a loss for CDN as a whole. Similarly, there may be years when the number of candidates is insufficient, and the viable candidacy of individuals above the age limit could help constitute a functioning EC body without the need for by-elections. Age should not be a limiting factor; members should be eligible as long as they are under 35 years old. CDN should cherish the engagement of all young people and leverage their expertise to the fullest extent."
Proposal of 1/2 is based on last year's compromise. Quoting last year's reasoning: "This would ensure that young members will have the majority, while allowing for greater participation of more experienced activists, which will enable the transfer of knowledge and enhance the work of the EC in the future."
