====Wikimedia Summit in Berlin==== | |||
Amanda Lawrence (president) and Belinda Spry (Exec Officer) attended the 3 day Summit in Berlin which focussed mainly on the Draft Movement Charter with affiliates and key stakeholders providing significant feedback and suggestions. Since then the Board of Trustees have posted a response on Meta. The current timeline indicates that from 25 June―9 July 2024 there will be a Ratification vote for the Movement Charter. | |||
Belinda also spent a day with 25 EO’s focussing on specific topics and issues for affiliates which was incredibly worthwhile. Overall it was an outstanding experience and many vital connections and potential future partners and projects identified. We received many positive comments about the impact and the strides we are making in Australia. | |||

Partner projects are all still on track and progressing well. One has already concluded, so the remaining three will wrap up at the end of this month with a full report in next month’s Board meeting. | |||

Responses to the draft First Nations report have been summarised and provided to Professor Bronwyn Carlson. Waiting on her response, and planning for release by end of May (see Matters for Noting). | |||
