[Anna Torres]

Dear movement fellows,

Thank you so much for your warm welcoming!

As Galileo said and thanks to the support of the team and specially at this
very first stage, from March 1st onwards I will asume the ED of Wikimedia
Argentina Foundation.
To be part of Wikimedia Argentina Foundation means to me an excellent
professional challenge that I am prepare to assume and also  the perfect
place where to project - generating more and better results- all the years
of trainning and work experience acquired during my career.

During the last ten years I have worked in the field of human development
and international cooperation from all its aspects- attempting different
development sectors like social, economic, educational, sustainable and
cultural development among others- and so I considere the development as
the comprehensive management of all of these concepts which are nowadays
the key in order to ensure fairer societies.

With your support, our work together and a tool like Wikipedia, I'm sure
that Wikimedia Argentina Foudations aswell as the rest of the chapters
around the world, can set up a new framework to encorage the social,
economic and cultural change we would like to see in the nearly future. In
this connection, I hope not only, all of us, to create more inclusive
projects, but these projects to be the result and the impact each one of us
would like to build up!

Thanks you so much for the opportunity!

Anna Torres Adell

[Joan Goma]

Hi Anna

I think you worked for the municipality of Tarragona. I wonder if you had
any relationship with tarracowiki: www.tarracowiki.cat

Sorry if I have confused you with another Anna Torres Adell.

Anyway welcome to Anna and congratulations to Wikimedia Argentina.

[Wikimedia-l] Announcing Anna Torres Adell as new Wikimedia Argentina ED

[Galileo Vidoni]

Dear movement fellows,

I'm pleased to announce that Wikimedia Argentina has a new Executive
Director. Please welcome Anna Torres Adell to our movement!

Anna was born in Barcelona but settled in Buenos Aires a couple of years
ago. She is a licentiate in Political Science for the Universitat Pompeu
Fabra and has post-graduate studies in International Cooperation;
Management and Control of Public Policies; and Local Development and the
Social Economy.

She developed an interest on international cooperation and social matters
since her teens, helping establish an educational NGO in Guatemala when she
was just over 20. She has since lived and worked in Spain, México,
Guatemala and Argentina. Before joining us at Wikimedia Argentina, Anna was
the ED of PROEM Foundation, an organization aimed at coaching small
businesses. Anna's track record also includes working with AECID, the
Spanish agency for international cooperation, and the United Nations
Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM).

She has extensive knowledge and experience in the five dimensions that we
cared the most when recruiting: commitment with the social goal of free
knowledge, working with volunteers, administration, program management and
funding.

Selecting Anna was not easy, but not because we couldn't find the right
person: We had just too much good EDs we wanted to hire! Thankfully we
could choose from an important pool of candidates and proceed to evaluate
thoroughly each one of them. We received over 100 applications, of which
not less than half were pertinent. We gave all of them a score and made
successive filtering stages before arriving to the eight people we
interviewed in person over the last days.

As you may have read on this list back in January, our decision to hire a
new ED has to do with Osmar leaving us to return to his home country. Let
me highlight that this good news could not have been possible without
Osmar's work and commitment. Not only he helped designing the work
description for his replacement, but he also participated in the recruiting
and hiring process.

We are extremely grateful to all what he has done to advance our mission in
Wikimedia Argentina, and while we are certainly saddened to see him go we
know that both he and us are doing everything possible to leave the
organization on track and in good hands. Programmatic work will not suffer
from this leadership change; if any, we as Board will ensure it gets
reinforced.

Anna will formally start working with us on March 1, and throughout all of
that month Osmar will continue with us in Benedict fashion as "ED emeritus"
to ensure that all the necessary knowledge, proceedings and contacts are
transferred from one administration to another. We are glad to have
achieved this level of stability as an organization, and we'd love to
spread the word about this happy and smooth transition in the
WikimediaConference with whoever wants to hear us :).

We asked Osmar to be one of our representatives in Berlin as his last act
of service, so it will also be a nice opportunity for you to meet him. In
the meantime, please welcome Anna to the Wikimedia movement and to this
mailing list!

Best regards,

*Galileo Vidoni*
