Dear African Wikimedians,
The Board has discussed and approved some governance improvements in two recent meetings, on December 9 and January 8.
As the governing body for the Wikimedia Foundation, we want to improve our capacity, performance, and representation of the movement’s diversity. We have amended the Bylaws in support of that goal.
Please check the details in the announcement published on Meta-Wiki https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Board_noticeboard/January_2021_-_Approval_of_Bylaws_amendments_and_upcoming_call_for_feedback_about_the_selection_of_new_trustees and on the Diff blog https://diff.wikimedia.org/2021/01/21/approval-of-bylaws-amendments-and-upcoming-call-for-feedback-about-the-selection-of-new-trustees/ .
If you have any questions relating to this, please feel free to ask, I'll be here to answer.
Warmly,
