Dear African Wikimedians,
I hope this email finds you well.
As you will remember that during our Wiki-Indaba
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Indaba> conference in Tunisia it was
agreed that we need to put together a steering committee that will be
responsible for capacity building which includes amongst other things
providing support to countries who wish to host Wiki-Indaba conference in
the future, support Wikimedians within the African continent who wants to
run Wikimedia projects but don't know where to start or how to go about
doing that, as well as finding out about the progress of projects run by
Wikimedians within the African continent and diaspora and letting everyone
know through social media etc.
Currently the Wiki-Indaba Steering Committee (WISCom)
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Indaba#Wiki_Indaba_Steering_Committee_(WISCom)>
is composed of representatives from countries who were previously host to
the conference, this includes Myself, Bobby Shabangu and Felix Nartey. We
would like to increase the steering committee, and we are calling for
applications from volunteers who are interested to be part of the WISCom.
The applications can be done by answering a few questions on this page here
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Indaba/Steering_Committee_(WISCom)> .
The due date for applications is Friday 22 June 2018.
You are free to share this message on other social groups for more
participation.
Kind regards,
