Hi all,

In preparation for the next Wikimedia Summit 2020 – which will take place from April 3 to 5 in Berlin, Germany[1] – we again launch a call for a “Visiting Wikimedian”. This initiative aims to transfer practical knowledge from the German chapter to other Wikimedia movement affiliates and provides us with an outside view.

The scope of a “Visiting Wikimedian” is mainly to support the organization of the Wikimedia Summit in terms of logistics and program. The “Visiting Wikimedian” will be involved in all essential steps of the planning and organizing process and will be able to contribute in multiple ways. We are open to designing the tasks together, according to the Visiting Wikimedian’s skills and experiences and her or his affiliate’s needs. We are especially looking for a person who can apply the knowledge to an upcoming event, for example if the affiliate is hosting a regional or international conference.

You can find more information about the initiative and all application details on Meta.[2] We had four Visiting Wikimedians over the last years, check also their blost posts on the linked on the Meta page.

If you are interested in becoming a Visiting Wikimedian, please check the conditions and details on Meta and apply to wmsummit@wikimedia.de until September 15, 2019 (incl).

Best regards,
Cornelius
