Hello everyone,

The Movement Charter Drafting Committee has concluded its first community review of the methodology draft, which will be used to ratify the Movement Charter in 2024.

This community review included feedback collection on Meta https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Talk:Movement_Charter and on the Movement Strategy forum https://forum.movement-strategy.org/t/movement-charter-ratification-methodology-community-review-from-10-28-april-2023/2930/6as well as two conversation hours https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Movement_Charter/Community_Consultation with communities and one conversation with the committees of the Wikimedia projects. MCDC greatly appreciates everyone's input. The recording of the ratification methodology presentation and documentation can be accessed here https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Movement_Charter/Community_Consultation/Notes_and_documentation. The timeline of the next steps of the methodology is provided here https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File%3AMC_Ratification_Methodology_-_April_2023.pdf&page=33 .

The WMF support team will produce a report on community input in May. MCDC will incorporate the feedback and share an updated version of the ratification methodology in August 2023. The MCDC will continue to outreach to stakeholders regarding the updated methodology in late 2023.

Thank you for your participation!

On behalf of the Movement Charter Drafting Committee,
