Dear WLE community!
This year in order to help our contest be more shared and inclusive for
everyone, we're inviting experienced WLE volunteers to become *regional
ambassadors* to help out the international organizing team.
The main responsibilities of the ambassadors are the help with
translations and communications in order to reach out to more regions,
where English is not so widespread.
So, meet some of our ambassadors!

Wikimedia Foundation's product team for francophone communities, also a
member of the MCDC (Movement Charter Drafting Committee), and secretary of
WikiFranca. He has worked on various Wikimedia projects across borders and
is a co-founder of the Wikimedians of Cameroon user group. He was
Wikimedian-in-Residence for the Wiki Loves Women project and has
coordinated international projects such as Wiki Loves Earth, and Wiki Loves
Africa and has facilitated French language training for numerous campaigns
including #1Lib1Ref, AWiM.

Wikipedia, organizes many activities for the Arab Wikimedia community, such
