Yes, Wikimedia Deutschland is also part of the TAO consortium, along with

 I can link to the newsletter but it only mentions the workshop was all
 women. Thanks.

Hi Gillian,

thanks for the write-up. I enjoyed reading it. I don't have anything particular
to comment about it unfortunately.

Hi Gillian! As always, thanks for your great insight. As someone who 
works at a GLAM and is in a museum studies program (an educational 
program that is 80% women around the country), I've been quite familiar 
with the opposite gender gap - more women than men. I'm really really 
glad you and Liam were able to travel to Queensland (enjoyed his photo 
blog!) and even happier that you shared your experiences with us. But, 
many of the reasons you cited are also the struggles on getting women 
involved in from those arenas - the hierarchy of the cultural makeup, 
privacy, etc. So these tips and thoughts are really valuable.


I know Carol Moore has been gathering documentation about training [1] 
and I think this would be a good addition for that!
