Dear Collab members,

We are pleased to announce that the June face-to-face meeting of the Education Collaborative will be taking place from June 2-4 in Yerevan, Armenia. We are thankful to our co-hosts, Wikimedia Armenia, as they help us organize a successful event.

Since last year, the Collab has reached a consensus around completely open membership. Active members of the Collab will be given scholarships to cover travel costs by the Education Team at the Wikimedia Foundation. Active members are those who participated in our spaces (mailing list, on-wiki, monthly calls, meetups at in-person Movement events) and completed tasks aligned with our shared goals (documented on Phabricator or elsewhere) between March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017.

All members of the Collab from the past year who meet activity thresholds have been offered a scholarship to attend the meeting. We have reached out to them individually to confirm attendance and to book travel.

Best Regards,

Vahid.
