Yesterday, Maggie Dennis announced that Katy Love (WMF Senior Program Officer, Funds Dissemination Committee) has been promoted to the Director of Community Resources. She is replacing Siko Bouterse whose last day was yesterday.
From my first hand experience working with Katy, I know her to supportive of programs, projects, and people who are working to increase participation of women in the wikimedia movement, including women on BoT of affiliate organization and other leadership positions.
So, I encourage people on this mailing list to participate in the WMF grants programs in order to develop methods to engage more women.
