[Wikimediaindia-l] SAARC meetup at Wikimedia Diversity Conference, Stockholm

Dear all, A SAARC meetup was organized during Wikimedia Diversity Conference on 3 November, 2017. Eight people attended the meetup and discussed about increasing diversity in SAARC context. During the meetup, all participants agreed to the need for creating and enforcing friendly space policies in Indic language Wikimedia projects. One of the suggestions was to create a diversity mailing list and a Safety team for SAARC countries.
