Развој лидерства: Формира се радна група!
У фебруару је тим за Развој заједнице објавио позив за прикупљање повратних информација о Радној групи за развој лидерства, који је подељен на 42 језика. Фасилитатори МСГ тима, који покривају 16 језика, прикупили су повратне информације од својих језичких и регионалних заједница кроз више различитих канала: Мета-вики, Телеграм, 1:1 састанци, позиви у заједници, Вики дискусионе групе и друге.
Позив за повратне информације био је кључни корак за прикупљање ставова заједнице о развоју лидерства и радној групи, пошто су чланови заједнице могли да поделе повратне информације о значењу „лидера“, саставу радне групе и потреби за сталним повратним информацијама заједнице. Резиме повратних информација можете погледати на Мета-викију.
Поред тога, пријава за придруживање Радној групи за развој лидерства затворена је 10. априла 2022. Биће одабрано до 12 чланова заједнице, што укључује волонтере и особље подружница, који ће годину дана учествовати у радној групи, почевши од маја 2022. Детаљан опис структуре радне групе можете пронаћи на Мета-вики страници. Ако имате додатних питања или недоумица, пошаљите е-пошту тиму за развој заједнице: comdevteam

Објављени су резултати ратификације Универзалног кодекса понашања!
On 24 January 2022, the Movement Strategy and Governance (MSG) facilitation team supported the translation and publishing of the updated enforcement guidelines for the Universal Code of Conduct, covering over a dozen languages. The document was produced by a volunteer-staff drafting committee that worked throughout 2021 to produce the recommendations.
The team then engaged and encouraged community members to review and comment on the document through a series of community conversations leading to a global vote. The global decision process via SecurePoll was held from 7 to 21 March. Over 2,300 eligible voters from at least 128 different home projects submitted their opinion and comments. The results of the vote have now been published here. You can read more about the UCoC project.
Movement Discussions on Hubs
The Global Conversation event on Regional and Thematic Hubs was held on Saturday, March 12, 2022. Participation at the event was open with a request for pre-registration. As a result, anyone interested in the hubs conversation could participate, irrespective of their actual intent to start or continue working on a regional or thematic hub. The event was eventually attended by 84 Wikimedians with diverse backgrounds and experiences from across the movement. The goal of the event was to:
- Share the findings from the Hubs Dialogue qualitative research interview series.
- Validate the key findings of the research with the participants.
- Clarify whether the identified shared needs can only be fulfilled by a Hub structure.
- Gather more inputs for drafting a preliminary definition of Hubs.
Until now there is no specific clear definition of hubs; one of the goals of the conversation was to try to propose a definition based on analyzing the generally shared needs that were concluded from the hubs dialog, and try to understand what really is related to the essence of hubs.
This phase of the process is just for piloting and learning for practice, as it will take time to get to a really good formal consensus across the movement about what qualifies as a hub, and the exclusivity of hubs that makes it different from affiliates. There is a need to specify the minimum viable piloting criteria, understand what criteria hubs need to meet to form, and pilot parties to do some actual work around the regional and thematic coordination. Conversations will continue, and will need to be well connected and aligned with the charter conversations, which will tackle the governance questions that exist all around the movement.
The summary report is published on Meta-wiki.
Movement Strategy Grants Remain Open!
Since the start of the year, six proposals with a total value of about $80,000 USD have been approved. There are also seven fully submitted proposals currently being reviewed and awaiting decisions, and twice as many proposals still in the idea stage being supported by MSG facilitators to help transform the ideas into full proposals. A big congratulations to those who are now in the process of implementing their projects. Here’s a full list of projects approved so far:
Movement Strategy Grants reopened in October last year. MSG facilitators have been engaging with various individuals, affiliates and user groups to increase knowledge about Movement Strategy and support the transformation of ideas into full projects and proposals. Through this effort, we are learning a lot about the challenges that many face in developing strong proposals and getting the support needed to not only apply for funds, but also to engage fully in Movement Strategy discussions.
Do you have a movement strategy project idea? Are you unsure how your ideas fit into Movement Strategy and if those ideas are fundable through MS grants? Please feel free to reach out to a facilitator to request support. You can also reach out to us at strategy2030wikimedia.org, if you have any questions related to Movement Strategy Implementation Grants or ideas you want support for.
The Movement Charter Drafting Committee is All Set!
In October 2021, about 1,000 Wikimedians participated in an election and selection process to form the Movement Charter Drafting Committee (MCDC). The Committee consists of fifteen members, and aims to create a document that will define the future governance of the Wikimedia movement. After months of hard work, the Committee has agreed on the essential values and methods for its work, and has started to create the outline of the Movement Charter draft.
During its first five months together, the Drafting Committee invested significant amounts of time in establishing its work systems. For example, the Committee created documents to define its Principles and how it makes internal decisions, put together a communications plan, and updated the timeline of the drafting process. The Committee also replaced one of its members due to health reasons, agreed on a way to work with the Board of Trustees and refurbished its information page on Meta-wiki.
Currently, the Drafting Committee is discussing the first version of the draft Movement Charter's outline. To hear about the outline, once it is published, and more about the Committee's work, we invite you to follow the MCDC Updates (regularly published on the 10th of each month).
