Galio, por favor, ¿podrías enviar este email a la lista interna de Iberocoop? Abrazo,
PatricioQueridos amigos:
La Fundación se encuentra a la búsqueda de un nuevo miembro del Board en reemplazo de Matt Halprin, cuyo mandato venció el 31 de diciembre pasado. Como ustedes saben, cuatro de los diez miembros no son electos sino que son seleccionados por el propio Board para complementar los perfiles existentes.
Se le ha encargado a una consultora que ya trabajó con la Fundación que hiciera una primer selección. No es un trabajo fácil, ya que se trata de una responsabilidad importante, que demanda tiempo y que es completamente voluntaria. Cada uno de los miembros del Board hemos sido entrevistados para tratar de definir prioridades y orientar la búsqueda, y si bien no conozco los detalles de las demás entrevistas, parece ser que todos hemos coincidido a la hora de considerar la diversidad como un valor en sí para nuestro movimiento y apuntar la búsqueda a un candidato que en lo posible no fuera del mundo angloparlante (aunque el conocimiento del inglés es imprescindible) y aún mejor si fuera del sur del mundo y mujer. Y un compromiso tangible con valores similares (no necesariamente idénticos) a los que nosotros expresamos.
El ejemplo de Bishakha para mí es muy importante: no viene del mundo Wikimedia pero tiene impresionantes antecedentes de trabajo con los sectores más postergados de su sociedad (en particular con mujeres desplazadas y prostitutas), y su aporte y compromiso en estos años ha sido invalorable.
Quiero invitarlos a que nos ayuden en esta búsqueda con ideas y sugerencias. He estado tratando de imaginar personas e instituciones del mundo académico y/o del no gubernamental en América Latina, me parece que por allí puede surgir alguna posibilidad interesante.
Les dejo abajo un email que me envió la responsable de la consultora con mayor información incluída la nota de presentación (en inglés) que están utilizando. No es información confidencial, aunque sería importante que coordináramos antes de contactar una persona o institución así no nos superponemos.
Un abrazo, y gracias!
Patricio** Hi Patricio - it was so nice to meet you. Thanks for your time and insight into some of the characteristics of a new board member. As I said, we are focusing our outreach globally and are paying specific attention to the Global South.
If you have ideas of individuals or organizations that we should specifically reach out to, please let me know. I will follow up on any suggestions. Additionally, I would encourage you to get the word out to your own networks in the hope that either someone will personally be interested, they will suggest someone else, or forward the email on to a wide community.
The following is the email that we are sending to people announcing the Board position. It would be great if you could write or translate an opening statement/paragraph, or paraphrase the content to highlight some of the more important elements, asking people for suggestions, nominations, or to forward on to their networks. I defer to your judgment.
*m/Oppenheim Associates is assisting the Wikimedia Foundation in San Francisco, California in the search for a new Board Member, and we are reaching out to the community for suggestions and nominations.*
*The Wikimedia Foundation, Inc. is a nonprofit charitable organization dedicated to encouraging the growth, development and distribution of free, multilingual content; and to providing the full content of these wiki-based projects to the public free of charge. The Foundation operates some of the largest collaboratively edited reference projects in the world, including Wikipedia, a top-ten internet property. Wikipedia contains more than 22 million volunteer-authored articles in over 280 languages and is visited by more than 450 million people monthly.*
*The Wikimedia Foundation provides the technical, operating and managerial infrastructure to sustain and grow Wikimedia’s free knowledge projects. The Foundation supports a global volunteer community of contributors, chapters and readers that contribute ideas, benefit from the support provided by the Foundation, and continually upgrade and evolve Wikimedia's free knowledge projects. The Foundation's goals include reaching one billion readers globally and 200,000 contributors by 2015.*
- The Board functions as a governance body that adjudicates the complex
policy-setting process of the Wikimedia Community, supervises the disposition and solicitation of donations, and hires the organization’s Executive Director who leads all Foundation staff. As arguably the most influential and respected organization in the free knowledge movement, the Wikimedia Foundation and its Board have a great responsibility for setting policy deliberately and with due consideration for the diverse interests of a truly global community.*
- This search effort will be one of mutual exploration on the part of
prospective candidates and current Trustees. The Board’s objective is to use this search to strengthen its knowledge of: board governance, grantmaking, strategy, and issues of importance to prospective new Wikimedia growth markets. However, there are no predefined criteria for selection.*
- Two-year, renewable terms are served, and the time commitment is
significant. The Board of Trustees meets four times a year, twice in San Francisco and twice in changing locations around the globe. Meetings take two days and travel can add another two days to each meeting. In addition, the Board communicates frequently by email and Internet Relay Chat (IRC) as it navigates policy issues. This can absorb 4-10 hours weekly. Board members also regularly engage with the Community through wiki pages.*
- Other Trustees feel that they would benefit from a member who has
experience with organizations that have grown and evolved explosively, and who understands how boards can evolve to provide appropriate governance support. Experience with international, community-driven, consensus organizations is also important as the Foundation would not exist without the community.*
