Hmmmm
Dear friends
Sj and I have received this information from Mervat, related to the
voting of selectors for the Movement Charter Drafting Committee
affiliate selectors group. This is an important step in the selection of
Drafting Charter Committee Members. As a result of the elections, 15
committee members will be elected and tasked with writing the Mouvement
Charter, which will in particular establish the roles and
responsibilites of the future Global Council for mouvement governance.
At this stage, I must say that despite the title of this email, it looks
generally as a rather complicated process to me
We were also offered that visual to better understand what's going on
here...

Step 1 is "ok". We were listed in the "Thematic Group" of voters.
Which
seems perfectly suitable. There are 8 geographical regions and 1
thematic group. The next step is currently being discussed amongst
Affiliates representants. The formely approved process is that all
Affiliates should meet according to their "region/thematic" and agree to
vote on a Selector. The Selector will in turn cast the vote. The current
proposition is to "shunt" the Selector here, and have Affiliates vote
within their group, and let the vote decide of the people selected by
the group. I will follow up on that ... ermmm... very administrative
issue... and will have a talk with Sj to make sure we cast the Affiliate
vote (be it directly, or through a Selector).
This being said, I wanted to share with you the complete list of
candidates and invite you to have a look. If you have private comments
about the candidates (big opposition or big support), please write to Sj
and I privately about it

Dear Wikimedians for Offline Wikis representatives,
I am following up on the long email we sent to you last week regarding
the setup process of the Movement Charter Drafting Committee affiliate
selectors group. We are following up with a quick step-by-step summary
to make the request more clear:
*
Step 1 - We are using a regional approach. Verify that your
affiliate appears in the right region in the list
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Movement_Charter/Affiliates_by_Region>.
If yes, no action needed. If not, please correct it.
*
Step 2 - All affiliates in the region will nominate 1 selector for
the whole region. Arrange an online meeting, social media
conversation or wiki page to decide the process for your region.
*
Step 3 - Run the process of selecting the selector.
*
Step 4 - Notify the Movement Strategy and Governance team of the
outcome, so we can set up and convene the group of selectors.
*
These steps should be completed by October 10, 2021.
*
Movement Strategy and Governance team is readily available to
support or facilitate any regional discussions at any of the
described steps.
The Movement Strategy and Governance team will be available to answer
any questions or specifications you may have regarding this.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
