Regional department of education (elementary & secondary education) & Kazan Federal University today received instructions signed by the President of Tatarstan on integrating Wikimedia Education Program opportunities into the curricula of educational establishments of the Republic. I was asked for some guidance on the topic before tonight, so prepared what I could in Russian https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikimedia-ru/2019-April/005086.html We are in the country with a centralized education system culture, so project owner will be the ministry, with Wikimedians serving as stakeholders, consultants & guides.
On March 1st we fielded 2 speakers for EDU RUSSIA 2019 conference

On April 11-12 our Bashkir colleagues (WUG BAK) were invited to speak @ their regional teachers' conference (photoes & report in Russian - https://ru.wikinews.org/wiki/?curid=221169 ) & their regional deputy minister recalled our speakers in Kazan
Right now our judges are checking some 200 pre-qualified ttWP articles created by 67 previously untrained school teams in the framework of Tatar 4.0 contest. Prizes provided by local partner, introduction to the contest video, Messenger support, participant & article tagging, prequalification & assessing on volunteering time. 10 best teams to be publicly awarded at Ğabdulla Tuqay memorial event downtown Kazan on April 26.

: Some news:
I managed to get vocal approval of the proposal to transfer
Wiki-competencies to Tatarstan public by Federal Deputy Prime-Minister Maxim Akimov and had Regional President Rustam Minnikhanov express his invitation to the subject-minister (Vice Prime-Minister of Tatarstan - InfoComm minister Roman Shaykhutdinov) to prepare necessary proposals for organizing the process in a successful scalable way. I will have to do more thinking and writing now so as to try have this implemented first in my Republic, then across Russia.
I was given less than a minute during pre-Conference tour of the project
stands prepared by corporations and state enterprises (without slides or any visual support), so I had to skim to the very facts and the value proposition that would get their attention.
On a more tangible side, https://ru.wikimedia.org/wiki/Selet_WikiSchool
that I started back in 2016, will get support from the regional budget & thus expand. Currently this is on the shoulders of a team consisting of high-school senior, a University freshman and a sophomore/junior from one rural school.

Dear colleagues,
You can track my preparation in English @
https://ru.wikimedia.org/wiki/%D0%A3%D0%BC%D0%BD%D1%8B%D0%B9_%D1%80%D0%B5%D0... (date move to accommodate VIP participants' schedules).
I had to skim my original 18 minute text to under 7.
I intend to touch on most of what had to go via the Slides which will
accompany my talk.
Tatar components will be prepared last, as Russian and English are
best tools for getting feedback from across the Wiki-world.

Dear colleagues,
This is a heads-up on the fact that on Jan.29 I will be speaking in
Tatar (with simultaneous interpretation of my words into Russian) at the Republic of Tatarstan Ministry for ICT closing conference for 2018 in front of the President of the Republic, Russia's Federal minister for ICT, members of Tatarstan government, industry & the press, possibly some participants from nearby regional ministries.
I will have some 7-10 min to present on
https://ru.wikimedia.org/wiki/Smart_region , rough English translation for the base page completed today.
It will be a basic intro level talk accompanied by slides about
some things that can be appropriately mentioned without overburdening the public hearing about Wiki-community activities for the first time in their lives. I will email you draft text around the end of the week (once I am comfortable with it), with some ideas on the slides I will play along my speech and a list of recommended follow-on measures.
Expected outcome: Presidential instruction to the Tatarstan
government to for a cross-departmental working group to study what ICT ministry led Wikimedia working group (since August 2018) has came up with & look into possible way of integrating this into Tatarstan social life (I was offered to formulate it myself today).
Other related Wikimedia Russia news:
- On or around Feb.8, we are to have first follow-on introduction of
Wikipedia Education Program to wider professors & students' body of Kazan Federal University Institute for International Relations, with director of which we had a productive meeting on Dec.21, following the events described in https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CEE/Newsletter/December_2018/Contents/Russia...
- On Feb.28-March 1 we are invited to field speakers for

This was a follow up of the Oct.1 meeting with Mintimer Shaimiev https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikimedia-l/2018-October/091151.html, but mainly around my last year's musings I finally finished translating into English today @ https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Frhdkazan/Wiki4RegionalDevt
- On Oct.23 We have started growing the project on WMRU-wiki at
https://ru.wikimedia.org/wiki/%D0%A3%D0%BC%D0%BD%D1%8B%D0%B9_%D1%80%D0%B5%D0... (currently in Russian only), using also eponymous thread at [wikimedia-ru] mailing list (last message https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikimedia-ru/2018-November/004914.html ).

- I didn't yet have time to think in detail about the potential
schedule or invited participants of the first public Wiki-seminar in Tatarstan, meant to expose locals to the Wikimedia movement and its best practices even if only via the video-conference (which I mentioned in the previous update), because I am doing this in between of my rather demanding work and some limited family life. The topic will most likely surface among other things tomorrow.

Hi Farhad, I'm very impressed with your successes so far. My main concern is how much of this you seem to be doing byyourself. I
hope that you have a group of people who are collaborating withyou so that
you don't feel responsible for doing everything personally, andthat you
aren't putting yourself into personal financial difficulty dueto the
amount of time that you're spending on Wikimedia activities. Regarding which people would be good to invite to a conference,I think
that GLAM and educational organizations would be naturalpartners so I
suggest starting with them. WMF might be willing to provide you with some advice and/orfunding for
GLAM or education related work if you request it, although thewait times
for WMF "Rapid Grants" funding seem to have become lengthy, so Isuggest
that if you want funding from that program that you shouldrequest it at
least two full months in advance and not rely on receiving it intime for
any particular deadline. I'm glad to hear that you're participating in Wikimedia CEE andI hope that
the affiliates in that group can provide you with good advice.
