Event page by the organizers

The Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees has appointed Maryana Iskander as the new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Wikimedia Foundation. In Maryana’s introductory letter to the movement, she said “my first job is to listen and seek to understand.”

As part of this commitment, Maryana is undertaking a listening tour of the Wikimedia movement. She will meet with volunteer contributors, affiliates, donors, partners and staff. She wants to hear from anyone interested in sharing directly with her even before she officially joins the Wikimedia Foundation in January 2022.

In January 2022, after Maryana officially joins, key themes from the feedback will be summarized and shared back with the movement.

• What is an interesting project you have been working on? 
• What are the unique qualities of Wikimedia communities in South Asia? 
• What are some challenges faced by communities in South Asia? 
• What are your questions for Maryana?
