Hello, I'm one of the facilitators with the Movement Strategy and Governance team. Thanks for having me on this mailing list. I'd like to invite you to an upcoming *Global Conversation <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Hubs/Global_Conversation…>* about Hubs <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Hubs> on 12 March at 13:00 UTC. Hubs are being explored as a way to help coordinate support for communities. Please see the full invitation below. ------------------------------ *You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki. <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Hubs/Global_Conversation…>* *More languages <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Hubs/Global_Conversation…> • Please help translate to your language <https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=page-H…>* Hello! The Movement Strategy and Governance team of the Wikimedia Foundation would like to invite you to the next event about "Regional and Thematic Hubs". The Wikimedia Movement is in the process of understanding what Regional and Thematic Hubs should be. Our workshop in November was a good start (read the report <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Hubs/Documentation/27_No…>), but we're not finished yet. Over the last weeks we conducted about 16 interviews with groups working on establishing a Hub in their context (see Hubs Dialogue <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Hubs/Dialogue>). These interviews informed a report that will serve as a foundation for discussion on March 12. The report is planned to be published on March 9. The event will take place on March 12, 13:00 to 16:00 UTC on Zoom. Interpretation will be provided in French, Spanish, Arabic, Russian, and Portuguese. Registration is open, and will close on March 10. Anyone interested in the topic is invited to join us. *More information on the event on Meta-wiki <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Hubs/Global_Conversation…>*. Best regards, Kaarel Vaidla <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:KVaidla_(WMF)> Movement Strategy ------------------------------ Please let me know if you have any questions. Best regards, Xeno (WMF) Facilitator, Movement Strategy and Governance <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Movement_Strategy_and_Governance> Wikimedia Foundation
