Greetings Program Leaders and Evaluators!
Important updates from Learning and Evaluation:
== New video available «Storytelling strategies for improved reporting» [1] ==
Session 1 of the new learning series «Telling your program story» [2] is now available online via our Youtube channel [1]. In the virtual event, we shared story and reporting elements, as well as a variety of resources to bring stories forward in reporting. Kaarel Vaidla, ED of Wikimedia Estonia, shared his experience building good practice in reporting. The session is now available on the Evaluation Portal on Meta. Watch and share!
== Share your data to help us improve Wikimedia Programs! ==
If you coordinated editing contests, photo events or a Wikipedia Education Program - from September 1, 2013, to September 30, 2014 - you can share your data on the II Round of Data Collection [3]. Deadline to fill out the survey is November 3rd. You can review the reporting items before you start the survey [4] and reach out to us if you have questions. Once you are ready, find the collector here:
