Talk:WikiConference India 2016/Report/Afifa Afrin

Hi Afifa Afrin, we are happy to hear that you made good connections at the conference, got a chance to share your work on education programs and attended the Wiki Women meet up. Have you made any progress on your idea to create a platform for wiki women in SAARC countries to share their experiences? In July there will be a Wiki Women's Camp in Mexico City where Chinmayisk and Netha Hussain. I hope you will contact them before the camp so that they can share your work and ideas with the other camp attendees. Please let us know if you need any support to begin or continue your project to start a platform for women in SAARC countries. The best way to contact me is by email at kharoldwikimedia.org.--KHarold (WMF) (talk) 17:22, 25 May 2017 (UTC)

Hi Afifa Afrin, Nice to meet you! Yes, I am participating in WikiwomenCamp in July 2017, and I hope to hear about your work and perspective on gendergap in SAARC countries. Your experiences from WikiWomen meetup will also be valuable for me. You can always write to me on my talk page or mail to nethahussaingmail.com. Looking forward to hear from you! --Netha Hussain (talk) 20:09, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

* Hi KHarold, first of all I am sorry I could not reply earlier. My mom was sick and I got little time for myself. Thank you for your message. I am happy to inform you that, what I planned in WikiConference India is in progress. I talked with other SAARC country wikipedians and got connected through facebook. Sometimes we do talk each other to share our experiences (such as: how to get more outreach, what projects are successful to bring more women in wiki). Though there is no remarkable progress yet, however I hope this connectivity among us will lead us towards a formal platform soon. Again I would like to thank you for your kind offer. I will definitely let you know through your email once we get more organized.

** Hi Netha, I am sorry that I could not reply you earlier. I just hope that I am not too late. I am happy to get message from you. I heard a lot about you and your works gives me inspirations. Hope we will be in touch. Regarding Gender Gap in SAARC countries, I would love to share my experiences. Do you have any particular quarry? I will mail you soon. -Afifa Afrin (talk) 14:40, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
