Dear all! The UG Wikipedia & Education elected a week ago its first board [1], and it is my honor to communicate members and roles of this board to the movement. The electoral process was both smooth and engaging, and thanks for everyone who got involved with it. Please join me extending the traditional honorific "Hooray" to the newly elected board members :)
The aim of the UG Wikipedia & Education is officially "to enhance and scale local and global educational efforts, advocate for education within the Wikimedia movement, and elevate the narrative of education outside our movement" [2]. The group was recognized on 27 June 2018. The first board meeting, that decided on internal board affairs and roles, was held yesterday; information on meetings and action calls will be shared on the education list [3]. Stay tuned! == Board == Shani Evenstein, chair Susanna Mkrtchyan, vice-chair Ananth Subray, secretary Filip Maljković, membership admin Krishna Chaitanya Velaga, treasurer == References == [1] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_%26_Education_User_Group/User_Group_election_2018-2020/Results [2] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_%26_Education_User_Group [3] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/education __ Thanks all.
