@christoph.jackel@wikimedia.de  Please feel free to encourage young wikimedians 12-18 to participate in WikiVibrance activities where they can. We have seen how the youth age definition varies across regions outside the movement. It's also important to get their thoughts in some of the youth issues they consider relevant to them. One of the things we hope to take away from this conference is to gather the thoughts of young people on the age definition of youth in the movement and how we can better engage them among other things. We are also going to get Wikimedians involved in the planning of the conference to support in the process including decision making on the conference participation and more. 

Kind regards,
Euphemia,

Hi friends,

just to get clarity: it makes no sense at this time for young wikimedians (age 12 to 18) to follow WikiVibrance's activities and / or meetup updates ?

Best regards
Christoph

Thank you for the clarification. This makes sense to me.

This is one of the key things we want to use this conference to explore to better understand what is or will be the ideal youth age definition in the movement. We feel that it is only appropriate to put on the meta page, an age definition that is representative of the voices of young people in the movement. But for the purpose of the conference participation, we will be using 18-35 years. However, we are also open to ideas around this if you think any different.

Kindly,

At what point are you considered too old for this? The page that was linked didn't make that clear on my initial read-through. I'm 20, but "youth" can often be a more vague term. I've also been a Wikipedian since I was 16, if that matters.

Hello everyone! 

WikiVibrance is planning to organize a Wikimedia Youth Conference in 2023 in Alicante, Spain.[1]

We are conducting an engagement survey to understand how we can design relevant programs for in-person participation. The survey output will help in knowing more about the needs of the youth in the movement and those interested in youth development. 

Please fill in the survey on or before January 20, 2023 and help us share in communities you belong to. The link to the survey is here.[2]

We can’t wait to receive your response.

Best wishes, 

James Popoola
