My Fellow Wikimedians!

Greetings from the ESEAP Conference 2024 Organising Committee!

We are delighted to invite you to submit a program proposal for the ESEAP Conference 2024, the third regional conference for Wikimedia communities throughout the East, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific region. The conference will take place in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia in May 2024. The theme for the conference is "Collaboration beyond the Horizon".

The ESEAP Conference 2024 aims to connect people of the Wikimedia movement within the ESEAP region, to share ideas, and to build regional collaborations. We welcome program proposals from all Wikimedia contributors, affiliates, partners, and allies, regardless of their geographical location. You can find more information about the conference and the program submission guidelines at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ESEAP_Conference_2024/Submissions.

We understand that not everyone can travel to Malaysia due to various reasons, such as health, budget constraints or lessening the carbon footprint. Therefore, we offer the option of presenting your program via video conference or pre-recorded message. You can also delegate some tasks to a physical participant in the conference, such as facilitating group discussion or distributing the handouts. We will provide the necessary technical support and guidance to ensure the quality and accessibility of your presentation.

The deadline for submitting your program proposal is Wednesday, January 31, 2024. Please use the online submission form to submit your proposal.  The program committee will review all proposals and notify the acceptance status.

We hope you will consider this opportunity and share your valuable insights and experiences with the ESEAP community. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us at persidangan@wikimedia.org.my.

Thank you for your interest and support. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
