I volunteered for the Partnerships Lead (Barcamp Wikipedia)and I am much ready to take on this too.

What's the next action line?

Hello Sandister,

It might be good to create a role for someone to be a partnerships lead who can take these up.
It would be hard for people to own up and handle such responsibility.

If there is no partnerships lead, pick next best suited role for this and let those who volunteer work with the person.

Regards,
Ato

Thats the main purpose of doing so I guess, getting them more involved in the movement.

I believe the FEMALES in the group are a little reluctant to lead so giving them more opportunities like this would go a long way in improving Female participation which we lack already.

That's an interesting way to look at it. I hope more opportunities = more participation.

I believe the FEMALES should step up and take charge.

Why FEMALE? Or it is yet another way of fixing gender inequality?

I don't really care what gender gets the partnership going, however, your emphasis on the 'FEMALE' makes me wonder.

Good evening everyone. 

We have been talking to Vodafone and Surfline on the possibility of Wikipedia Zero. We linked them to WMF team and they were sent some explainers. 

I met one of the bosses of Busy 4G. She is keen on listening to what Zero is about. 

Is there any FEMALE willing to handle that partnership? 

Also I remember someone offered to handle partnerships of this sort. 

I will really like to speak with you on the way forward with Vodafone and Surfline. 

You don't have to be in Accra. Initial meetings involved picking contacts physically which I have done. 

So far the rest it's been electronic communication only.
