The Wikimedia Foundation’s Community Resources team and the Northern and
Western Europe (NWE) Committee invite you to apply to become a committee
member in the Northern and Western Europe (NWE) region. The NWE Committee
supports the Wikimedia Foundation Funds [1] programs' participatory
grantmaking practice. *The deadline for applying is September 4, 2022*.
The NWE Committee reviews grant proposals from affiliates and other
community members within the NWE region who are seeking grant funding from
the Wikimedia Foundation. Committee responsibilities include: providing
thought partnership to help support applicants and strengthen their
strategy and proposals; evaluating and recommending promising proposals for
funding; and helping recruit and spread the word about grants. Orientation
and training is provided for new members.
Serving committee members will have the opportunity to advise on funding
decisions and proactively share recommendations and mentorship to support
grantees in the Northern and Western Europe region in their development,
growth, and sustainability strategies; that contribute to a world in which
every single human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge. You
will also strengthen your capacity in participatory decision-making
processes while learning about our community's incredible work and the
different contexts that influence their work.
