During a Mosaic Project

(When you are ready to start the planning phase of your project)

If a Chapter/project coordinator would like support from a Regional Mosaic Expert:

15th of any month

• Contact mosaic-request@cisv.org. Include brief comments and ideas about the project. This will help us match you with a suitable Regional Team Mosaic Expert.

1st of the following month

• The Mosaic Support Team will provide a reference number for your Mosaic project.
• You will have been assigned a Regional Team Mosaic Expert to support you and you can start planning your Mosaic.
• You can spend up to 3 months working with your Expert.

Before the project is due to start

• With the support of your Regional Mosaic, submit your completed Worksheet for approval.
• The Mosaic Support Team will send you a formal notice of Approval.

If a Chapter/project coordinator does not need support from a Regional Mosaic Expert:

Anytime

• Work with your Local Mosaic Expert to plan a Mosaic.

At least 1 month before the project is due to start

• Submit a completed Worksheet to mosaic-request@cisv.org.
• A Regional Team Mosaic Expert will review the Worksheet. They may contact you for clarifications about the project content during this time then make a recommendation to the Mosaic Support Team.
• The Mosaic Support Team will contact you to confirm whether your project can be considered Mosaic.
• The Mosaic Support Team will provide a programme reference number for your planned Mosaic project.

Where a Worksheet is submitted after the start of a project, it cannot be considered to be a Mosaic project.

After a Mosaic Project

(When your Mosaic project has now finished)

Within 2 weeks of the end of the end of the project

• Submit a completed Mosaic Report to the Mosaic Support Team, using the report section of your Worksheet.
• Late reports may be subject to a sanction procedure.

If your project end date is revised after being approved, please advise the Mosaic Support Team of any changes before the original end date.
