Hi everyone,
Happy to follow up on our communication from two weeks ago [1] with updates about Movement Strategy.
Conversations are under way on what initiatives from the recommendations should be prioritized for implementation in 2021, and how to prepare for upcoming global discussions. We are happy to update you with guidance for hosting prioritization events, different ways to let us know your priorities, and what will come next.
The recommendations and their changes and actions or “initiatives” are available in different formats and in multiple languages [2]. There are 10 recommendations and close to 50 recommended initiatives. The aim of prioritization is to understand what people and organizations in the movement feel are significant actions we need to take in 2021, and to map out opportunities for collaboration to bring movement strategy to life.
Prioritization should be at the level groups, affiliates, and communities - local and relevant. To learn more about how to organize your event, please consult:
-
The guidance for prioritization [3], and -
Share your results - directly on Meta [4], by email, or by filling out a survey [5] before the end of October.
We will come together in November to discuss the priorities that emerge from the discussions and co-create an 18-month implementation plan for 2021. More information about November’s global events will be shared soon. For now and until the end of October, organize locally and share the results of your prioritization discussions.
Please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us if you have any questions or comments, strategy2030@wikimedia.org. We will also be hosting office hours to answer any questions, Thursday October 1 at 14.00 UTC [6].
On behalf of the Support Team,
Kaarel
