Hi,
I hope you are doing well! It is a very stressful time and many of us are affected by this, sending some hugs and good vibes. I want to remind you about the affiliates meeting on *25th March at 14:30 PM UTC*. Also, a
good
time to check-in with our colleagues and to know how they are doing.
We will focus mainly on education response to Covid-19, and how Wikimedia projects can help students and teachers during this pandemic. Last week, when we did a tweet https://twitter.com/WikimediaEdu/status/1240229686082301954?s=20
asking
the education community to share their ideas, around 500 Million students were affected by the pandemic worldwide. And now, the number has
increased
to more than 1.3 Billion. We look forward to seeing you during the
meeting,
share the action plan by the education team and brainstorm more on this topic.
*Request before the meeting:*If you could spend 10-15 minutes of your
time
in the next couple of days to fill this form https://airtable.com/shr3EN72TTEUt8yMb to provide us with resources

or your affiliates have developed to support Wikimedia in education, that will help a lot.
