Greetings Program Leaders and Evaluators! == Our newly integrated team: Program Capacity and Learning [1] ==
Three Community Engagement teams at Wikimedia Foundation have merged together to combine forces in supporting program and community leaders across the movement: The Wikipedia Library, Education Program, and Learning & Evaluation are now united as the Program Capacity & Learning team. In this coming year, we look forward to our shared learning and support to leaders like you. Importantly, we could use some help in defining what that year looks like! Between now and February 19th, we are asking for your input in prioritizing support to program leaders and affiliates through our newly integrated Program Capacity and Learning Team. Our new team, in addition to supporting education programs, libraries, and learning and evaluation, will also support GLAM and Affiliate Partnerships. We have been consulting with different program and community leaders and have developed a few ideas for which we would like your input. Please share your views on our criteria for resources as well as concepts for support. Your input will help guide our 2016-2017 Annual Plan submission. We will host office hours on IRC on Tuesday, February 16, at 8 am PST. Sign up to the event via Google or Facebook [1]. == New blog: What I Learned: Improving the Armenian Dictionary with the help of students [2] == The blog series What I Learned has a brand new posting! In this new post, Wikimedia Armenia program leaders, David Saroyan and Lilit Tarkhanyan, share their experience in running the popular program WikiCamp in Armenia. Read the shared lessons, comment and help us spread the word by sharing the blog on social media! If you have also learned a valuable lesson running a Wikimedia program and would like to feature what you learned in this space, reach out to mc...@wikimedia.org to publish your story. == Learning Quarterly: Issue 7 == The latest issue of our newsletter is now live on Meta. This edition you can read about our newly integrated team and how you can contribute to our roadmap, the Wikipedia Library #1Lib1Ref campaign, UNESCO Wikimedia project partnership, learning patterns, and more!
