Hi Collab members!
Just a quick note to let you know that I got my proposal accepted and will be in London for the entire OER17 conference in April to promote the Education program with our OER-friends.
Also, the program committee announced their second keynote speaker today; Lucy Compton-Ried CE of Wikimedia UK https://oer17.oerconf.org/news/announcing-our-second-confirmed-keynote-lucy-...
Placing the WEP in the broader OER-landscape I think will spark some interesting conversations about how to advance free knowledge in Education. Let me know if you're going or if you know people attending the conference who'd like to meet up to talk about it.
Thanks sharing Collab activities in 2016 - looking forward to our next steps in 2017.
All the best, Sara
Great news, Sara!

Congratulations, Sara! Completely agree that WP/WEP = OER.
If you are unfamiliar with this page, it may help with your presentation. Thank you for any updates you can add to it.

Also, do reach out to Elly Koepf and Valentin Münscher of WMDE and Tomasz Ganicz of WMPL. The three of us had been collaborating on a presentation for OE Global 2016 http://conference.oeconsortium.org/2016/.
All the best,
