Grants:Project/MSIG/Juan Bautista H. Alegre / Movement Charter Ambassadors Program (3)

What specific Movement Strategy Initiative does your project focus on and why? Please select one of the initiatives described here: We shall focus on EQUITY, (i.e. 4. 4. Ensure Equity in Decision-Making, which contains items 24-28).

Project Background[edit]

When do you intend to begin this project and when will it be completed?: As been conveyed, the Movement Charter Drafting Committee will share the full Movement Charter draft on April 1st 2024. Thereafter, for this round, we MC Ambassadors are expected to conduct our consultation activities between March 25 until April 21.

Where will your project activities be happening?: The project itself will be brought to two (2) LANGUAGE communities as in the previous phase, namely Bicolano and Tagalog. The Movement Charter draft will be presented as the Foundation's initiative to bring EQUITY in decision-making to the community at large.

Are you collaborating with other communities or affiliates on this project? Please provide details of how partners intend to work together to achieve the project goal.: For the scope of this third round, the most effective channels shall be with discussion groups particular to the respective communities so identified.

What specific challenge will your project be aiming to solve? And what opportunities do you plan to take advantage of to solve the problem?: A realistic view towards the time constraints and the number of tasks involved, it will be most effective to reach out to the movers and shakers of the pertinent communities. Some doors will be open (receptive) and some doors will remain closed (hesitative). But, just as beforehand, it should not discourage us.

Does this project aim to apply one of the examples shared in the call for grants and if so which one?: This grant is set to align with the MC Ambassadors Grant Program.

Project Activities[edit]

What specific activities will be carried out during this project? Please describe the specific activities that will be carried out during this project.: As our Philippine archipelago thrives with Wiki communities across islands and provinces: communication is key, not simply across virtual channels, but in face-to-face meetings of warm bodies. In this round, I shall reach out to the closest accessible communities within the time allowed, namely Tagalog and Bicolano.

Additional information[edit]

If your activities include community discussions, what is your plan for ensuring that the conversations are productive? Provide a link to a Friendly Space Policy or UCoC that will be implemented to support these discussions.
If your activities include the use of paid online tools, please describe what tools these are and how you intend to use them.
Do your activities include the translation of materials, and if so, in what languages will the translation be done? Please include details of those responsible for making the translations.
Are there any other details you would like to share? Consider providing rationale, research or community discussion outputs, and any other similar information, that will give more context on your proposed project.

Outcomes[edit]

After your activities are complete, we would like to understand the draft implementation plan for your community. You will be required to prepare a document detailing this plan around a movement strategy initiative. This report can be prepared through Meta-wiki using the Share your results button on this page. The report can be prepared in your language, and is not required to be written in English.

In this report, you will be asked to:

Provide a link to the draft implementation plan document or Wikimedia page
Describe what activities supported the development of the plan
Describe how and where you have communicated your plan to relevant communities.
Report on how your funding was spent

Your draft implementation plan document should address the following questions clearly:

What movement strategy initiative or goal are you addressing?
What activities will you be doing to address that initiative?
What do you expect will happen as a result of your activities? How do those outcomes address the movement strategy initiative?
How will you measure or evaluate your activities? What tools or methods will you use to evaluate your activities?

To create a draft implementation plan, we recommend the use of a logic model, which will help you and your team think about goals, activities, outcomes, and other factors in an organized way. Please refer the following resources to develop a logic model:

Overview of logic models on Meta-wiki
Example logic models for reference for other movement activities (such as partnerships and edit-a-thons)
Blank logic model template on Google Drive

Please confirm below that you will be able to prepare a draft implementation plan document by the end of your grant:

Yes.

Optionally, you are welcome to include other information you'd like to share around participation and representation in your activities. Please include any additional outcomes you would like to report on below:

I agree.
