Hi all,
During the Berlin Conference, we committed Wikimedia Kenya to an
intent
to join the Chapters Council (Also referred to as the Wikimedia Chapters Association - WCA) by signing the Berlin Agreement [1]
Now a committee of 4 members with equal powers (WCA Interim Secretariat) selected to hold the position of interim secretary general for WCA
have
just published a draft for the WCA standing orders as explained in
the
forward below. We are to select a representative to the association's council.
In my opinion, our representative should be someone familiar with the runnings of other chapters and the Wikimedia Movement in general and available to followup on WCA online and physical meetups and
discussions
so as to give our chapter updates of the same. Being a Board member is a plus *but not necessary*.
Any volunteers/nominees?
cheers, Alex

Hi All,
The WCA Interim-Secretariat has published a draft for the WCA
standing
orders at:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Chapters_Association/Standing_Or ders
With this, we complete what we think is enough information to
formally
join the association. At this point we ask the chapters to ratify
the
charter outlined in Berlin and select their representatives to the association's council. A definition of the representative roles is outlined in the standing orders. Do note that this draft, subject to
suggested
amendments will be voted upon in the first council meeting at Wikimania.
We know that important information such as the financial obligations are still missing. In any case, financial obligations will only be imposed by a council resolution. We also understand that your chapter board may only be in state to join provisionally, with regard to a later
decision
by other organs in your chapter
Regards, Tomer Ashur on behalf of the WCA interim-secretariat
