Greetings Community, I'm writing to encourage those considering to apply for an Executive Council seat to *do it!*
This year our Executive Council has: * amended our bylaws <https://docs.carpentries.org/topic_folders/governance/bylaws.html> * advocated for and formalized transparency around decision making <https://carpentries.org/blog/2021/07/carpentries-governance/> * approved a strategy for geographic growth ...and so much more! I am looking forward to working with the next Executive Council on several significant outcomes, including a roadmap to transition The Carpentries out of fiscal sponsorship and into independent non-profit organisation status. We depend on the perspectives and expertise of our diverse community to thrive. Learn more and nominate yourself or a colleague to serve on the Executive Council: https://carpentries.org/blog/2021/09/executive-council-elections/ In service, Kari -- Executive Director, The Carpentries [email protected] ------------------------------------------ This list is for the purpose of general discussion about The Carpentries including community activities, upcoming events, and announcements.
