Dear all, We hope that you are doing well. We are happy to inform you that this year CIS-A2K is planning to reactivate its Train the Trainer <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CIS-A2K/Events/Train_the_Trainer_Program> (TTT) initiative. This effort aims to empower Wikimedians with the necessary skills to support their Wikimedia communities effectively. Through this program, we aim to enhance the capacity of Wikimedians and enable them to make a positive impact across the communities they serve. Our ultimate goal is to empower Wikimedians to create a network of knowledge sharing, identifying opportunities for growth and facilitating Wikimedia communities to flourish.
The Train-the-Trainer (TTT) event has been held seven times between 2013 to 2020. This event is part of our effort to build community leaders and contribute to a healthy and safe Wikimedia community. We are working on a new model that aligns with the ongoing global discussions on leadership development and aims to meet the specific needs of our Wikimedia communities. The Kerala Wikimedians User Group will be the co-host/co-organizer group for Train The Trainer 2023 <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CIS-A2K/Events/Train_the_Trainer_Program/2023> (the page is under construction) which will be involved in the planning and implementation of the initiative. We invite Wikimedians to apply for scholarships to participate in Train the Trainer 2023. The scholarship form is available here <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScRqLnCvFLehPI7QQMITtzd5WLqY1k3e9t1cQbCGNR99Ivl-w/viewform>. The dates for submitting the scholarship form are 1 August to 14 August 2023. We encourage Wikimedians who are interested to contribute towards their language communities to fill this form. Please note that individuals who have already participated in an earlier iteration of TTT cannot apply for the scholarship and their application will not be considered. The event would be held by the end of September or the beginning of October 2023 (the days of the event will be Friday, Saturday and Sunday). The final dates and venue will be announced soon. We will be unable to consider applications from Wikimedians based outside of India for TTT 2023 due to logistical and compliance-related issues. If you have any questions or queries you can contact us at a...@cis-india.org or nit...@cis-india.org. Regards, Nitesh (CIS-A2K)
