声明 | こんにちは、私の名前はマットです。私は2005年から編集をし続けて、2007年以降は非常に積極的に編集活動をしました。その当時、私は、ウィキメディア財団の監査委員会の委員、ウィキメディアDCの元監査委員会の委員長、そして、およびウィキメディアNYCの理事メンバーとして、ウィキメディア運動の数多くの側面に関わってきました。私はまた、現在管財人であり、英語版ウィキペディアの監査小委員を務めています。ウィキメディア活動の新しい存在として、FDC(Funds Dissemination Committee、ファンドの普及委員会)は、効果的に機能するために、コミュニティの信頼を獲得する必要があります。オンブズパーソン(監督官)は、FDCに関する苦情の公平なレビューを提供する上で重要な役割を果たします。オンブズパーソンのレビューや調査を通じて、どこでFDCが有効に機能しているのかについてと、FDCと取締役会が真剣になり、どのようにして言われた手続きや指示からの逸脱を解決しているのかについてをコミュニティは見ることができます。ウィキメディア活動や会計士としての現実生活でのこれまでの経験は私に、オンブズパーソンとして効果的に機能するためのスキルを与えてきましたと信じています。お時間をいただき、ありがとうございます。 |
必須質問 | 1. 財団資金分配委員の活動と推薦過程に適したどんな経歴をお持ちですか。
I am admitted as a CPA (NY) and have an MBA/graduate certificate in strategy and leadership studies. These professional qualifications will act in combination with my prior experience in grant administration in graduate school and work in various audit roles in the Wikimedia movement to help me effectively review and investigate annual plans and the processes surrounding their creation.
I spent two years in college working in grants administration and on a research grant. I understand the need for compliance with grantmaking rules, as well as the practical complexities faced by grantees in complying with the rules. I also have worked in the tax-exempt organizations group of a large accounting firm and understand the basic principles of charitable organization operations.
2. あなたは何が監察委員の役割だと理解していますか。 The ombudsperson serves as an impartial investigator and reviewer of the FDC process in general and of complaints other than FDC allocation recommendations in particular to help the community, Board and the FDC understand the effectiveness of the grantmaking process and to attempt to resolve disputes involving the operation of the process.
3. 資金配分委員会のプロセスについて、監察委員に対して実際に起こりそうな申し立てを書いてください。そしてそれに対してどのように対処しますか? The primary types of complaints I envision involve failures to communicate between requestors and the FDC that relate to the developing nature of the grantmaking process and failures to communicate among the network of parties involved in the process (staff administering legacy grants, board members, etc.). I also see the ombudsperson providing an impartial view of the grantmaking process to (hopefully) validate community faith in the effective operation of the FDC process and provide a dedicated means of synthesizing feedback to improve the grantmaking process in the future.

必須質問 | 1. 財団資金分配委員の活動と推薦過程に適したどんな経歴をお持ちですか。
Being a board member of Wikimedia Portugal since it's foundation has helped me understand how chapters function, and the work involved in developing programs and annual plans.
I am specially experienced in the dynamics of small chapters and their need for funding, and the difficulties concerning requesting/reporting.
2. あなたは何が監察委員の役割だと理解していますか。 The Ombudsperson has to document complaints, so that difficulties and problems felt by all interested parties are adressed and the process can be improved. The Ombudsperson also has to summarize annually all feedback received concerning the process (from Portal navigability to clarity in the forms, etc.). To do this a good understanding of the FDC process is required. I think it is important that all complaints are taken into account, so that the process can be transparent and trustworthy. I also believe that the Ombudsperson's role can still be improved in the future, since we all made a great deal of learning this first year.
3. 資金配分委員会のプロセスについて、監察委員に対して実際に起こりそうな申し立てを書いてください。そしてそれに対してどのように対処しますか? Using as an example the complaints that were directed to me this last year (as Ombudsperson), be it a complaint about the eligibility process or about donations and fund allocations, I believe that, in case of the need for an investigation, it is important to look at the context of each complaint impartially and not deal with all complaints in a standardized fashion. It is important to gather all points of view and facts, so that the process is clear, and that we can all understand what went wrong, and how to make it better the next time.
