Hello everyone
I wanted to promote the episode #9 of the Wiki Loves Women Inspiring
Open podcast.
It features Helen Turvey, who is the Executive Director of the
Shuttleworth Foundation.
For those who do not know anything about this Foundation, it is an
organisation set up in January 2001 (am I the only one to be amazed by
the amount of cool projects and cool orgs set up in January 2001 ?) to
provide funding for people engaged in social change.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shuttleworth_Foundation. They use a
fellowship model (rather than a more traditional grant system). Notable
past and present fellows includeMarcin Jakubowski
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcin_Jakubowski>(who develops theOpen
Source Ecology
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Source_Ecology>project),Rufus
Pollock <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rufus_Pollock>(co-founder of
theOpen Knowledge Foundation
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Knowledge_Foundation>) andMark
Surman <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Surman>(now Executive
Director ofMozilla Foundation
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozilla_Foundation>).
In the podcast, Helen provides deep thoughts and super cool insights
about philanthropy, which I think any person currently beneficiary of
funding (or interesting into being) from the wikimedia ecosystem or
seeking funding from non wikimedian grant makers, could be interested
about.
Listen to her here :

inequity, administrative justice
Cheers
