---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Ramzy Muliawan &lt;ramzym-ctr(a)wikimedia.org&gt; Date: Wed, Apr 27, 2022 at 5:49 PM Subject: Invitation to form an Analysis Committee for 2022 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election To: &lt;affiliates(a)lists.wikimedia.org&gt; Dear Affiliates, My name is Ramzy from the Movement Strategy and Governance team (MSG) at Wikimedia Foundation. I am writing to inform you about the Affiliates involvement in the 2022 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2022> and invite your participation. This year, Wikimedia communities and affiliates will take part in selecting 2 candidates to fill the two community- and affiliate-elected seats available. To launch the process, Affiliates will vote in July 2022 to shortlist 6 candidates from the candidate pool, in which then will be voted by the community at-large. You can find more details about the process <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2022#Affiliate_organization_involvement>*here <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2022#Affiliate_organization_involvement>* . Before the shortlisting vote, we are inviting you to participate in forming an *Analysis Committee* <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2022#Analysis_Committee>, which will rate the candidates based on specific criteria. This Committee will be composed of 9 representatives from Wikimedia chapters, user groups, and thematic organisations. Members of the Committee will each represent the 8 geographic regions of the Wikimedia movement and an additional group for thematic Affiliates. In this Meta page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2022/Affiliates_regional_distribution_for_the_Analysis_Committee> you can see which region/group your Affiliate will be collaborating with to select a member for the Analysis Committee. The MSG facilitators, which have been assigned to every region and group, are prepared to offer facilitation and support to help your region/group in collaboration and decision making. You can reach out directly to us by leaving a comment at the Meta talk page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2022>.
