Subject: [Wikimedia-l] Launch of Community Consultation on strategic approaches
To: Wikimedia Mailing List <wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org>


Dear Wikimedians,



We are excited to have you participate in an important Community Engagement
regarding our strategic approaches. This is a major step to help us
prioritize the work of the Foundation beginning in July 2016 and running
for the next 12 to 24 months thereafter into a strategic plan.

Throughout 2015 the Foundation has been exploring how to prioritize its
work to best support the movement's goals, set forth, but not yet reached,
in the 2010-15 strategic plan.

The strategic approaches presented here are based on our vision, strategy
consultations in 2010 <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Strategy/2010-2015>
and 2015
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/2015_Strategy/Community_consultation>,
research on external impacts, and input from staff and a few small
community think groups on key challenges and potential solutions.

Timeline: These are our target dates for this process.

   -

   January 11: Put up pages for translation (done)
   -

   January 18: Launch of community consultation on key questions
   -

   February 15: Close of consultation
   -

   By February 26: Release synthesis of consultation
   -

   By March 4: Publish first draft strategy for comment


We appreciate your time and efforts to help guide the Foundation in its
work to support the movement.

Warm regards,

Lila
