Hi Pavan,

I am interested to co-host it in Delhi on the first weekend of March from 1-3 March (Friday-Sunday), if other members from Delhi are also interested in co-hosting.

Delhi members, what do you say?

Best, Japleen

Hi Tito,

I said 1-3 March because the event page said that the training should happen in end February or early March. I really want to attend this training and this is the only weekend in March that's free for me. Else, April is also good for me.

I'm also asking other Delhi members and then we may submit a proposal after consultation.

Hello, Thanks for your comments Abhinav. 1) We have got 2 expressions of interest to host TTT this year so far. Having jury for city selection is a good idea. 2) TTT is not a conference, but it is more a training workshop with specific topics to be discussed, and often multiple sessions are linked to each other.

Thanks Tito Dutta Note: If I don't reply to your email in 2 days, please feel free to remind me over email or phone call.

Dear Tito, Pavan and A2K Team,

Happy to find that the community has started initiating their bids and maybe by the day's end there could be some more. Irrespective of whichever community gets to host the event, the entire process of promoting community-led initiatives needs to applauded. There is no shadow of the doubt that this would promote off-wiki leadership within different communities.

A2K Team could also perhaps initiate

1.) Taking help of some senior and experienced community members in the jury process to make it more transparent and neutral.

2.) Inviting external resource persons via Call for Papers where the community members can submit an abstract for their presentations and the participants along with the larger community can reflect. Similarly, the A2K team members could also put up a brief for their sessions and the community can reflect, advise and suggest for the needful.

Again, I would like to re-iterate, this is a wonderful initiate undertaken.

My two cents.

Abhinav

I really like the idea of a regional event in Assam soon as the community has started gaining momentum.

To VVIT Wikiconnect, I know you folks will organize a good event. Best wishes from my side.

To CIS, this is a really nice initiative to involve communities in organizing national events and building capacity but I would also like to reiterate what Ravi said on the event's talk page. To engage more communities in the future in such processes, it would be important to have an incentive, such as 2 extra participants, similar to local participation during Project Tiger consultation 2019.

That aside, collaborating with different communities each time is a good practice.

Hello,

First of all, on behalf of CIS-A2K, we would like to thank you for your interest in hosting the 2019 iteration of Train the Trainer (TTT). We feel that TTT is one of the major events A2K conducts. TTT has been conducted in 2013, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018. This year we wanted to further improve the program structure. One change we thought to make this year: was inviting community members/communities to host TTT. We believe this might help to organise TTT more collaboratively. This year we have started this process, in the next year or in the next iteration we strongly believe the process and event will be further improved.

We are delighted to see the two applications. Thanks to the Assamese community, and VVIT Wikiconnect. We thoroughly studied the two applications. We also talked to 2 external reviewersn(not CIS-A2K members) and requested their observation/opinion. It was a tough decision to select a city here. Based on the reviewers' suggestion, our own analysis this year we are doing in: Visakhapatnam.

On behalf of the CIS-A2K, I thank the Assamese community for your interest. What we feel at this moment it would be better if we conduct/support zonal/state-level workshop/wiki-event in Assam where (in comparison to an event like TTT) more and more Assamese Wikimeedian can participate. We'll work on such a skill-building workshop/event.

Thanks and Regards,
