A few opportunities are coming up for members who may
be willing to
speak on behalf of the chapter in lunchtime meetings, conferences
etc or as interviewees. We will sometimes, but not always, be able
to pay for travel and subsistence expenses.
This is a great way of helping the chapter spread the word about the
things we do and it also gives you good exposure in public speaking
and raises your profile among media circles.
If you are interested in volunteering for this, please could you
email me the following details:
- what experience you have in public speaking, if any
- what experience you have with Wikimedia projects, including any
roles such as administrator
- what is your availability (location/times)
- what kind of events you would like to help with
- how you would like to be contacted
I will be putting these details (minus the contact details) on the
wiki at
uk.wikimedia.org/Speakers - if you want it to be kept
confidential please let me know and I will put it on
board.wikimedia.org/Speakers instead.
Alternatively please feel free to add yourself to the wiki directly.
Regards,
Andrew
