Hello all, FYI. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Kaarel Vaidla &lt;kvaidla(a)wikimedia.org&gt; Date: Wed, Nov 25, 2020 at 7:52 PM Subject: [All-affiliates] Global Conversations Dec. 5+6 - registration information To: &lt;affiliates(a)lists.wikimedia.org&gt;rg>, &lt;all-affiliates(a)lists.wikimedia.org&gt; Hi everyone, Close to 250 people participated in virtual Global Conversations that took place on November 21 and 22. The discussion continues on December 5 and 6 and we warmly invite you to take part. Registration is open until December 4. [1] What happened already Nearly 50 communities and affiliates shared their priorities in advance and can continue to do so. [2] Based on those priorities, the first set of events on Nov. 21+22 took discussions further by asking Wikimedians from around the world which of the 45 Movement Strategy initiatives are most important to globally coordinate and start implementing in 2021. For some of the initiatives, implementation means further discussions and scoping. Take a look at the results. [3] What do you think about the priorities? What is missing? What would make you want to play an active role in implementation? Coordination will vary from one initiative to another. Some can be implemented on their own, some will involve diverse communities and affiliates of different sizes working together, and others may require support from the Wikimedia Foundation. What happens next During the next set of discussions on December 5 and 6, we will focus on the top global priorities and start discussing what implementation can actually look like. What are the steps needed to put Strategy into action? Everyone’s invited to help enrich these conversations. Since implementation will be different from one context to another, we need as many voices as possible included to create a movement-wide implementation plan. Based on the feedback, we would like to continue the great momentum of the first set of events and will provide social opportunities for Wikimedians to connect. We will also provide space to hold short lightning talks [4] on how to implement certain initiatives. If you have ideas, please share them with others. If you are unable to attend, we will share the results and raw data on Meta so we can still benefit from your input. What is provided As for the first set of events, we will provide live interpretation in Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Indonesian, Russian, and Spanish. In the registration form, please let us know if you require language support as well as internet data package upgrade or childcare for the duration of the event. Familiarize yourself with the initiatives already prioritized, register early, and continue the conversation on December 5 and 6. See you there.
