Volunteers will work closely with COT leads and help ensure smooth delivery of key conference processes, particularly around programme review, scholarships, communications, logistics, trust & safety and documentation.
Timeline: January – October 2026
Time commitment: Varies by role (approx. 2–6 hrs/week during peak periods)
Location: Remote, with onsite opportunities during the conference (October 2026)
Who Should Apply
We encourage applications from:
- Wikimedians active in language, program, community, or affiliate work
- People with experience in event support, reviews, logistics, or documentation
- Individuals comfortable working in collaborative, deadline-driven environments
Previous conference organising experience is helpful but not required.
