Hello everyone! The Wikimedia Foundation Community Events Team <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Events_team> will begin holding monthly office hours for any community members who are interested. To start, this will be a place where people can come ask us questions, get to know us, and have discussions. If only a handful of people show up it will be completely informal but if a larger number of people show up we will add a little bit of structure.
The first office hours will take place this Thursday, December 10 starting at 15:00 UTC <https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1607612429> and lasting for an hour. Find the link to join on meta <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Events_team/OfficeHours#Upcoming_office_hours> . Our Team Members who will be attending and general topics which we will each be able to speak to: - Rachel Farrand, Senior Program Officer: Conference grants (thematic and growth events), accessibility, remote events in the Wikimedia context, planning for future office hours - Chen Almog, Senior Program Officer: conference grants (regional events), risk assessment, capacity building, the new Events portal - Joël Letang, Senior Events Strategist: event strategy, Wikimania, scholarships We will move the time of the meeting around month-to-month in order to be inclusive of more timezones. We will also be adjusting these office hours as we go based on community feedback and are very open to changing the scope of these office hours over time or incorporating community theme requests, presentation requests or requests for outside speakers. In some cases we will be using these office hours to test out different options for remote conference software. You can find more information about upcoming officer hours and add your comments and questions here and on the talk page: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Events_team/OfficeHours We hope to see you there! -- Rachel Farrand Senior Program Officer Community Events Team Wikimedia Foundation
