region is very welcome to tomorrow's meetup 13.00-14.00. Please note that

Dear representatives of regional collaborative,
I am writing to you to invite representatives of regional and thematic
collaboratives to participate in the 1,5 hour discussion we are planning to
have *tomorrow* (Sunday, July 22) morning in the *Strategy Space @Wikimania
in room 3203* (on the 32nd floor) starting from *10:30*.
We will be discussing how to best involve regional and thematic
collaboratives in the process and channel possible collective input to the
process. Look forward to seeing many of you!
Have a great weekend!

Hi all,
For those of you attending Wikimania, we have now booked a meetup for
Saturday lunch time, 13.00-14.00 in the room called Esino Lario
https://wikimania2018.wikimedia.org/wiki/Meetups#Saturday. This will give
us a chance to discuss and prepare for our upcoming Northern Europe Meeting
(WikiNEM) in October
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Northern_Europe_Meeting_2018.
I guess depending on how lunch is organized, it may work out that we have a
joint lunch, or we bring lunch to the meeting room.
If this is a terrible time for you, let me know and I can reschedule. We
will work on some agenda items and share with you.
Please help share this message to members of your community who are not on
the list.
See you soon!
Sara

Hi everybody,
Due to logistics, we've rescheduled the Wikimedia Northern Europe Meeting
2018 <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Northern_Europe_Meeting_2018> for
October. We have the venue, conference facilitator and teams from WMNO and
WMSE all locked in for these dates.
The event will be on *6-7 October* as the main dates. For early arrivals
there will be some type of social activity on Friday evening 5 October.
We hope that these dates will work for most of you.
Based on the experience we gained from the Wikimedia Diversity Conference
2017 we hope to create a program that is highly interactive. later in June
we will start planning with the conference facilitator and based on the
feedback and thoughts presented in the *Community engagement survey*
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Conference/Northern_Europe_Meeting_2…>
we will create an initial draft of the program.
Furthermore, we hope to have a pre-meetup at Wikimania in South Africa. We
will register a slot in Wikimania’s program for that and we really hope
that you can take part if you're attending Wikimania.
Best Regards,
Sara

Hi everybody!
I just wanted to give you a few updates:
- We have preliminary booked a venue (in the same building as our new
office).
- We found a motel next to it which charge 975 per night (including
breakfast and wifi). That would leave each participant receiving a
scholarship of around 1,000 SEK (95 euro) for travel.
- We are contacting a facilitator about availability as well.
In our application we wrote that the event would take place 17-19 August.
However, I was told at the Wikimedia Conference that this might create
problems for some to participate. For WMSE's staff September would actually
work much better. Would the general consensus be to move the event to a
weekend in September instead? Wikimedia Foundation is okay with such a
change. Please discuss in your teams and fill out this Doodle to share your
preference: https://doodle.com/poll/2tt67n59pyut9gm7 I will let you know
the final date on Tuesday 15 May.
Kind regards,
John

Hi!
Kacy at WMF told me yesterday afternoon that they will fund the
scholarships, the facilitator and catering for the Northern Europe Meeting
2018, but not the work time for follow-up which we hoped for.
This mean we can do a 2 day event as envisioned!
WMSE will make sure we can secure the venue, accommodation and facilitator
asap and we will get back with final confirmation of the dates.
I hope to see active involvement from all chapters in the preparations and
executions of this event. After all, this entire event is about joint
activities 😊
I'll get back to you about planing meetings in the coming weeks.
I am thrilled we will be able to welcome many of you to Stockholm shortly!
Best,
John
Hi!
What time did your have in mind for the meeting? I have dinner plans at
19.00 tonight (Friday) but would be happy to met before. Or perhaps during
lunch tomorrow?
Best,
John
