Información para os candidatos

Roles e responsabilidades dos membros do FDC

From the FDC portal

FDC members will be expected to dedicate considerable time, focus, and effort, including:

• In-person attendance at FDC meetings (two to three meetings expected per year);
• Reading and evaluating proposals during the two proposal rounds per year (March and October);
• Ongoing monitoring and participation in FDC discussions and activities within the community; and
• Sporadically intense email and IRC communication with FDC staff and other FDC members.

To be eligible for the FDC, candidates:

• Must be over 21 years old and over the age of majority in their home country;
• Must be able to work effectively in English (although full fluency is not required);
• Must present to WMF appropriate personal identification, a copy of which will be maintained by WMF for record-keeping;
• Have sufficient time and dedication to commit to this process and availability to attend in-person meetings, as needed;
• Have a track record of constructive engagement in community discussions and an orientation toward collaborative problem solving; and
• Be able to set aside any conflicts of interest and work towards the mission goals of the Wikimedia movement without considering individual or organizational interests.

Staff / board members of entities requesting funds from the FDC may serve on the FDC; however, they must recuse themselves from deliberations pertaining to their entity's application.

Through careful selection of candidates through both the Board-appointment and community election processes, the FDC membership (as a whole) should have the following skills and attributes:

• Experience directing or evaluating programs;
• Grant-making expertise (either as a grantee or grantor of funds);
• Exposure to, understanding of, and personal credibility in the Wikimedia movement (that is, experience in programs, chapters, or administrative roles within the Wikimedia movement); and
• Gender, geographic and linguistic diversity.

FDC members will be expected to adhere to articulated conflict of interest provisions that will reduce their risk of being unduly influenced.
