Annual Report 2012[1]

Introduction[edit]

2012 has been a transitional year for the Committee on several levels. Due to on-going challenges with membership activity an internal reorganization has taken place with the introduction of term limits and minimal standards of activity[2], while at the same time the Committee was instrumental in concluding the movement roles process and paving the way for the recognition of new movement affiliates.[3] The year marked the introduction of the thematic organization and Wikimedia user group affiliation models and the parallel change in the name and scope of the committee from Chapters to Affiliations Committee.
