The Global Advocacy team is looking for your input. We last contacted you about the launch of the Human Rights Policy. Now, we're asking you to help us understand how it can best support Wikimedians in practice.

We are hosting a series of community conversations in May. There are 4 regional sessions. Each will be 60 minutes, hosted on zoom, and include translation support. On this Meta page you can see the schedule for each call and access the link to register.

What is the outcome of these sessions? Our goal is to learn how community members' human rights have been challenged and how the Foundation can better support individuals and prevent such situations. We will do two things with the information that is shared via these conversations. (1) We will share a summary of our findings by publishing them on Meta, in a Diff blog, and (hopefully!) presenting them at Wikimania. (2) Feedback and recommendations will shape the implementation process of the Human Rights Policy. 

Where can you learn more about these calls and the Human Rights Policy? You can learn more about the conversion format, types of questions that will guide the conversation, as well as the Human Rights Policy on this meta page. 

What if you can’t join any of these conversations? If you are interested but cannot attend the calls you can still share your experiences via a survey that will soon be available. 

We hope to see you there,

Ziski from the GA Team
