Hi Gnangarra, hi all, thanks for sharing your concern. Before selecting the mentioned languages that will be offering interpretation services for, we have checked in with the respective groups, and considered regional context as well as language reality within the Hubs groups. There are several Hubs to be established with a primary language used other than English (Spanish/Portuguese, French, Arabic). That implies as well that there is more than 1 affiliate using each respective language. From what I know and have been informed, the ESEAP group uses English as its communication language internally. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Dear fellow Wikimedians, I am happy to announce that *the report of June 24-26 Global Hub Conversations is now published on meta <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Hubs/Documentation/June_2022_Global_Conversations> *[1] and ready for your reading and comments. You can either use report talk page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Hubs/Documentation/June_2022_Global_Conversations> [2], criteria talk page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Hubs/Minimum_Criteria_for_Pilots> [3], Movement Strategy Forum <https://forum.movement-strategy.org/t/hubs-june-2022-global-conversations-report-published/1200> [4] or Movement Strategy Telegram groups to ask questions or share your feedback and insights. For easier access I am summarizing key outcomes and next steps from the event also in this email thread: *Key agreements* ➼ There is value of the criteria to guide and inform the work on hubs ➼ The number of currently proposed criteria was perceived as too high ➼ 5 core criteria for piloting: 1) A Stated Goal, 2) Public Documentation, 3) Needs Assessment, 4) Clear Plan, 5) Connection to Movement Strategy Implementation ➼ The criteria should rather function as guidelines than blockers ➼ The principle of the subsidiarity would need to be followed in hub pilot implementation ➼ Expectation of continuous support to the groups setting up their hubs in various forms *Open questions* ➼ It was not discussed in detail what the implementation of subsidiarity principle in the hub work would mean in practice. ∙ What information and guidance is provided to empower them to implement self-management and subsidiarity? ∙ How are potential overlaps and conflicts between hub pilots managed in a “bottom-up” process? ∙ What guardrails are needed to avoid duplications and redundancies among Hubs? ➼ What does the Movement expect from Hub pilots in terms of monitoring, evaluation, and learning? ∙ How could a structure for connecting Hubs pilots and enabling peer sharing and learning look alike? ∙ How is accountability of Hubs pilots in terms of documentation and information sharing ensured? ∙ How is it ensured that Hubs pilots are comparable across the Movement? ➼ How do Hubs pilots access and acquire support?, including ∙ Access to financial resources. ∙ Access to staff support and advice for designing, planning, and executing the pilots. *Next steps* ➼ By end of July 2022: Comprehensive report regarding the feedback on proposed Minimum Piloting Criteria (on Meta + MS Forum), to be published by WMF Movement Strategy + Governance team ➼ By Wikimania 2022: New version of the criteria/guidelines and request for feedback, by WMF Movement Strategy + Governance team ➼ By Wikimedia Summit 2022: Further agreement / responses to above mentioned open questions on support structures for Hubs Pilots, by WMF Movement Strategy + Governance I am looking forward to continuing constructive conversations with you all to advance the work on the hubs and movement strategy! Happy reading and have a great end of the week!
