- Abstract (up to 300 words to describe your proposal)
In the past few years, there have been several initiatives that aim to train community members in different skills and topic areas. From program evaluation and design, to communications, board training, conflict management and online harassment, many efforts have emerged in the movement to develop capacities for stronger communities through community leadership.
In the first part of this session, we will share what we have learned from the Leadership Development Dialogue sessions held in 2016, as well as overview the Wikimedia Resource Center and planned next steps.
Following this overview, we will discuss how we might work together to develop a shared online space, to support peer-to-peer training and mentoring. In this part of the workshop, there will be small group discussion of ideas as well as a larger discussion to set next steps based on emergent ideas and needs.
