Hi Sandister, Where do we nominate people? What is the process? Warmest Isla

Dear all, Also following up with *reposting the criteria presented in our previous email regarding this call for nominations*. Call for nominations Online engagement with a high number of diverse participants from across our movement will be challenging. Therefore, the Wikimedia Foundation is convening a small design group to collaboratively shape the transition to implementation, including the setup and scope of the virtual events. The idea for the design group is to bring together community members reflecting different parts and regions of the movement (CEE, ESEAP, Indaba, Iberocoop, North America, South Asia, WikiArabia, WikiFranca), representatives from the EDs and chairpersons groups, and WMF staff. The design group will have project management and facilitation support. Open design will be used for this work so anyone interested can participate, share insight, and provide feedback on the discussions. Community members and Movement Strategy enthusiasts who are not part of the design group are invited and highly encouraged to provide feedback online in parallel as reviewers, and to later take part in the decisive virtual discussions. For the design group, we are asking for one individual nomination from the WikiIndaba group: - The task will be to work with a diverse group of people from across the movement to design how the process of online events will be set up. - The nominee should be familiar with the Wikimedia movement, interested in strategy, and ideally an active online contributor from the projects OR from an underrepresented community. - The work is scheduled to begin in the third week of June and planned to conclude at the end of July. - During this time, you will meet 5 times virtually as a whole group for two hours each time, and you will be expected to carry out some asynchronous work in between meetings. - Please also consider diversity criteria during the nomination. Traditionally we have lacked prolific online and technical contributors in the discussions, and there has been an inclination towards male participants and those from high-income “Western” countries. We hope that you can help us bring a more diverse range of perspectives into design discussions. I hope this is helpful!
