Sip and Chat with the Wikimedia Foundation Trustees edit

Abstract/description of your session edit

WikiConference India is expected to be a much-awaited, diverse, and language-inclusive event for our movement. It will be an opportunity for the Board to connect with movement members as well as members who may have never heard of the Foundation or its Board of Trustees in the region. We are proposing a panel discussion followed by a casual conversation with the audience.

How does it connect with the WCI 2023 theme/focus edit

The proposed session is directly linked with the theme of strengthning the bonds and aims to achieve the same through a direct and open conversation between representatives from the Board of Trustees and the movement members in attendance.
