Hi everyone, This is a friendly reminder that the Affiliations Committee (AffCom) – the committee responsible for guiding volunteers in establishing and sustaining Wikimedia chapters, thematic organizations, and user groups – is seeking new members! The deadline to post your application on the nomination page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Affiliations_Committee/Candidates/June_2020> is 30 June 2020. - Application process: Considering the anticipated changes following the Strategy recommendations, we had a limited scope to introduce changes in the process. We have made a small but impactful addition to the application process by introducing the Self Assessment survey form which will help the committee know more about your engagement as endorsements are not consistently shared, may not be representative, and often do not speak to the specific skills needed. - Selection process: No change; see: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Affiliations_Committee/Rules_of_Procedure If you have any questions, please contact me and/or the committee as a whole. We are happy to answer questions about our work if this helps people decide to apply. Please distribute this announcement among your networks. Good luck to all the candidates! On behalf of the committee, Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight (she/her) Chair, Affiliations Committee
