Description :

WikiFranca is a collaboration initiative between Wikimedia movement affiliates and groups that can communicate in French. Our goal is to share resources and skills among us to make communities stronger and promote Wikimedia projects across the globe. This project has led us to structure our initially informal collaboration around foundational texts such as our cooperation and governance charters. We believe WikiFranca could serve as a first experience for a language based community hub in the wikimedia movement. I will go over the challenges we're addressing such as distance between collaborators, the need for transparence, shared governance and representation whilst preserving our flexibility.
