Hi all,

I have posted a first draft of the international team's grant proposal for the upcoming year on https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Wiki_Loves_Monuments_international_team/2020_coordination . 

The deadline to submit is in 2-3 days, but feedback is welcome either way. You can leave it on the talk page of the proposal. 

The international team will also be organizing a team meeting in two weeks. We will be looking back at the previous year, evaluate the surveys that were generously filled out (thanks Krishna!), discuss special events and activities for the upcoming year and discuss the more general future of the international component of the competition. We will hopefully arrive at a helpful set of outcomes, but also work on more practical documentation and tooling. In order to support diverse viewpoints, we have invited some additional participants. If you have specific suggestions as input for the meeting, I welcome you to leave input on the talkpage of this placeholder page: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_International_Team_meeting_2020 (we will publish the agenda & participants when finalized, and put also outcomes there)

Thanks all!

Lodewijk
