HI Nicole and Kaarel:
Thanks for your efforts. Can you add a new column per WG if the member is "speaking" for a meta group of Affiliates (such as Iberocoop or MENA)?. This could help us to understand some elections and the *possible* under-representation of groups in some themes.
Thanks in advance!

Dear Wikimedians,
Thanks to everyone who applied to participate in a Working Group and for your interest and engagement in the process! We received a lot of exceptional applications and we are excited to announce the first round of selected members for our nine Working Groups. You can find all names on the respective Working Group pages on Meta.[1]
Even though we received many exceptional applications, the Working Groups don't yet have the level of diversity that represents the movement and brings in new voices. This means we will increase our outreach efforts and accept additional applications.
We will use Wikimania to reach out existing contacts from previous processes, and will identify more connectors and multipliers to get their expertise and support. This also means that the first task for the selected members is to map the gaps and increase the diversity of their Working Groups in consultation with the Core Team. After that, we will also start bringing in external expertise to the groups.
== Wikimania Strategy Space == At Wikimania, on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, the Core Team will be hosting Strategy Sessions, and a Strategy Bar, to provide an update, seek your feedback, harvest your expertise, and respond to all questions as the Movement Strategy advances. Please check the detailed schedule on-wiki.[2] All are welcome at these sessions, and we look forward to seeing many of you.
Following Wikimania, we will provide an update on progress to date, as well as information on the process and timelines for collectively advancing the Movement Strategy. We are thankful for your ongoing contribution to the Movement Strategy process and look forward to hearing from you during future consultations.
In the name of the Core Team Kaarel & Nicole
