Hello,
As I see the focus of the "direction" on "structured data" and not on
education, this is a reason for me not to endorse.
Kind regards,
Ziko

Dear education community,
I wanted to relay the call for endorsements of the Strategic Direction that
you may have seen in other channels. There is more information in the
message below on the general process and context.
If you want to highlight education as part of your endorsement, please
*consider
using the #education hashtag in your edit summary as part of your
endorsement*, whether as an individual or as an affiliate:

movement/2017/Direction/Endorsement
I look forward to seeing how the next steps develop, especially in the
education space.
Sincerely,
Tighe

Subject: [Wikimedia Announcements] Movement Strategy: Endorse the strategic
direction today! #wikimedia2030
To: wikimediaannounce-l <WikimediaAnnounce-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>
Dear Wikimedians,
Today marks the final milestone of phase 1 of our movement strategy
process. Over the past eight months, many of you, of your peers,
colleagues, partners and friends have contributed to an endeavor that
resulted in the new Strategic Direction of the Wikimedia movement.
This direction provides us with an answer to the question: What do we
want to build and achieve as a movement over the next 10–15 years: By
2030, Wikimedia will become the essential infrastructure of the
ecosystem of free knowledge, and anyone who shares our vision will be
able to join us.[1]
On behalf of the strategy team, it’s with great pleasure that I invite
you today to declare your intent to work together towards this future.
Organized groups as well as individual contributors of our movement
are invited to endorse the Strategic Direction by adding their
signature to the endorsement page on Meta-Wiki. You will find all
necessary instructions there.[2]
By endorsing the Strategic Direction, you are not necessarily agreeing
with every single outcome of the first phase. Endorsing means that you
commit to participating in the next phase of this discussion in good
faith and to help define, by Wikimania 2018, how to come to an
agreement on roles, responsibilities, and organizational strategies
that enable us to implement that future.
In addition to signing the meta page, you are all welcome to use the
#wikimedia2030 hashtag on social media to celebrate and share your
excitement with the world and encourage other Wikimedians to show
their support, too.
Ideally, please leave questions or remarks on the talk page, to make
it easier to follow-up in a structured way.
Thank you!
Nicole
