Dear Collab members,

We are happy to announce a new member joining the Wikipedia Education Collaborative this week. Please join me in welcoming Melina Masnatta from Argentina.

I will leave Melina to introduce herself to you in her own words:

Education coordinator of Wikimedia Argentina since 2014.  Specialist in technology and education, makes researches, designs and develops programs for foundations and educational ministries. Professor and researcher at the University of Buenos Aires and the Latin American Social Sciences Institute. And member of the board of Girls in Tech Argentina (actually we are developing a program to teach programming to teenagers for reduce the gender and digital gap). I always want to share and help to spread education issues. I wrote in the Newsletter about Massive distance learning courses, Gender gap in education, Educational Edithaton and Digital Education policies. I have had an active participation in the Education Pre Conference Wikimania 2015. I believe in the collaborative work to grow up in our actions.

Melina, we are so happy to have you as part of the Collaborative. Thank you for being part of this group and for putting your great experience to work to help others around the world in their education efforts.

Please join me in welcoming our Melina.
