I want to warmly recommend that people considering joining the
international team :)

The international team is essential for making sure WLM 'happens' and in
the past years the team has mostly decreased in size. It is important to
get some new members that are excited and constructive. As you can see from
Krishna's overview, there are a number of different roles, and any
combination may work well for you. Don't feel shy, and just ask for a chat
about the roles, to figure out what would work well for you. It is a great
opportunity to learn some new skills too.

Right now, the innovation at the international level is mostly at a
standstill, and with a few new members, there may be more opportunity to
develop the concept and address challenges!

Feel free to forward this to a friend or introduce them to Krishna.

Warmly,

Lodewijk
(who has been in the international team for about 10 years, but now moving
to a more advising capacity)
