Content and community edit

CONTEXT: Although an affiliate organization (AO) is not the representative of the Wikimedia movement, it must be a true part of this movement, with long time and active members and channels to dialogue with this community at all times. A good and healthy relationship with the other members of the Wikimedia movement (remembering, of course, that all members of this user group are part of this community) is a condition not only desirable but crucial to the smooth running of the activities. Thus, in this APG we think of several lines of activities that seek not only to bring more editors and quality content to the projects, increasing in number and heterogeneity our community, but also allowing the creation and maintenance of channels of communication between the activities of the user group and the existing editor community. In this sense, we aim to structure a series of routine events, as well as special events to be held throughout the year of activities of this APG. In addition, if we talk about of the importance of dialogue with the community, "communication" appears as a determining factor. Thus, we plan core of monthly activities to create, maintain and strengthen these channels of communication. Within the Education Program, we recognize that the use of the extension of education, which will be replaced by the Outreach Dashboard, is crucial to analyze the results of our actions, and therefore we believe that the support to the teachers on how to use these tools is an important point. Last but not least, offer the possibility of microgrants to the general community throughout the year, through an evaluation process on the legitimacy and viability of each request.
