Waasalumu ,
I hope we are doing great. It has been a week since I asked for your input into the above. Since I got none, I went ahead with the plans for the same.
So Wkimedia Kenya and Mozuilla Kenya had sometime last year discussed and greed on having an Outreach this year to introduce guys to our work.(https://etherpad.mozilla.org/Kenya-Mozilla-Wikimedia-Outreach and https://etherpad.mozilla.org/Kenya-Road-Trip-Institutions)
For Wikimedia, we would hold a few Wiki Academies to show guys how and what it takes to create Wikipedia and hope they will be apart of it and contribute if not make good use of other Wikimedia Resources in their daily life.
So the first outreach is almost here with us and I have been working on it with Alex from the Mozilla Camp and since we do not have sufficient budget and resources as Mozilla does ( I understand they really do have lots of cash for Outreach this year :-) ), we have agreed that Wikimedia Kenya will only need to cater for the boarding and travel expenses for its participants. We are still ironing out the details of hiring or finding a venue. Our audience in Mombasa will include guys from GTUG Mombasa and a few techies and developers in Mombasa and calling for a few students who would make it to the meetup. We have a liaison with the GTUG Guys in Mombasa helping with the coordination.
So this is a call for anyone keen on helping or who has a presentation and teaching to do to step forward (A maximum of 3 people). Tentative dates are March 9th to 10th
Your input is eagerly awaited and volunteers too
Regards,
