[Wikimedia-l] Proposal - Training for Wikimedia movement boards

[Sophie Österberg]

Chris,

Thank you for sharing this. I find this to be of great importance and a
crucial step for our movement. I would be very happy to lead a session on
programmes, and specifically Education Programmes, with its aims, current
status and future.

*Be Bold!

> If there is enough interest, we will define the programme more closely and
> work out exactly where and when.
