Hello everyone,

The Movement Charter Drafting Committee https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Movement_Charter/Drafting_Committee (MCDC) will propose a ratification methodology for the future Movement Charter https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Movement_Charter on April 10, 2023. The proposed ratification methodology is a result of learnings from previous ratification processes.

The MCDC will organize a consultation period with the Wikimedia Movement to hear feedback on the proposed ratification methodology from *April 10 to 28, 2023*. People will be invited to share their feedback on the questions mainly via the Meta Talk page discussion, on the Movement Strategy Forum, and during the community conversation hours. The MCDC welcomes your input on some open questions.
