Event page: Indic Community Monthly Engagement Calls/September 8, 2023 Call <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CIS-A2K/Events/Indic_Community_Monthly_Engagement_Calls/September_8,_2023_Call> What is this Learning Clinic for? This clinic aims to collectively reflect on the work happening in South Asia using data from grantees' reporting in 2022. We will focus on one or two topics for discussion, drawing practical recommendations for future work in the region, especially within the next round of grant proposals starting in September 2023. This will include elements that grantees can incorporate into their organizational and programmatic work, as well as ways CIS and/or the Wikimedia Foundation can offer support. What Do I Need to Prepare? To make our session productive, please prepare the following: - Read this Learning document: Analysis based on grantee reporting in South Asia <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Va1NT6O3OBZhh1XVepXV5einFsv-Biqmx0Zw_yKNrKM/edit?usp=sharing> - Be ready to engage in a collective understanding of key work happening in the region, which can inform future grant proposals and regional discussions. - Help draw practical recommendations that can be considered in the next round of funding proposals and for ongoing work in the region. If you have any questions or need further information, please do not hesitate to contact nitesh(a)cis-india.org. Regards, Nitesh Gill, Program Officer, CIS-A2K
