Hello everyone

I wanted to promote the episode #9 of the Wiki Loves Women Inspiring Open podcast.
It features Helen Turvey, who is the Executive Director of the Shuttleworth Foundation.

For those who do not know anything about this Foundation, it is an organisation set up in January 2001 (am I the only one to be amazed by the amount of cool projects and cool orgs set up in January 2001 ?) to provide funding for people engaged in social change. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shuttleworth_Foundation. They use a fellowship model (rather than a more traditional grant system). Notable past and present fellows include Marcin Jakubowski (who develops the Open Source Ecology project), Rufus Pollock (co-founder of the Open Knowledge Foundation) and Mark Surman (now Executive Director of Mozilla Foundation).

In the podcast, Helen provides deep thoughts and super cool insights about philanthropy, which I think any person currently beneficiary of funding (or interesting into being) from the wikimedia ecosystem or seeking funding from non wikimedian grant makers, could be interested about.

Listen to her here :

Summary keywords : women, philanthropy, open, funding, organisation, inequity, administrative justice

Cheers
