Composition
Size: The size of the committees varies in different funding regions with 5-10 members as of 2024.
Stakeholder Representation: Regional stakeholders can also be involved in some committees. For example, the CEECA Regional Fund Committee has a non voting representative from the CEE Hub. The committees with Community Resources can involve other stakeholders to ensure inclusion and representation.
Deliberations and decision-making
- Frequency of deliberations or meetings
Committees communicate through online meetings, mailing lists, and Telegram groups. Some regional committee mailing lists also accept external communication. The work of the committee will vary from month to month. At the beginning, time for training will be required as well as during application review in the two rounds per year. Other moments would require less time focused on communication and mentorship.
- Working language
Working language varies across regions. For example, the working language for the North American Committee is English, the Latin American and Caribbean committee works in Spanish, Portuguese, and French with interpretation and translation services, and the ESEAP Committee works in English, Mandarin, Japanese, and Indonesian. If the submitted application is in another language, committees can receive translation support.
- Format of review and deliberations
For more details about the review process and review framework used, see: ವಿಕಿಮೀಡಿಯಾ ಸಮುದಾಯ ನಿಧಿಗಾಗಿ ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯ ಬೆಂಬಲ ನಿಧಿಯ ಪ್ರಸ್ತಾಪಗಳನ್ನು ಹೇಗೆ ಪರಿಶೀಲಿಸಲಾಗುತ್ತದೆ?
- Quorum and consensus
Committees use the gradients of the agreement scale for consensus building towards making inclusive funding decisions. Some committees use the 1-2-4-All approach for proposals reviews and deliberations. This means that there are 3-4 stages that an application undergoes that includes proposal review and deliberations. During the deliberations, Program Officers act as facilitators and provide Committees with requested additional information.
- Program Officer's role
The Regional Program Officer from the Community Resources team support in administration, documentation, facilitation, coordination, communication, and serves in an advisory role.

Committee members are committed to the following policies and principles to support constructive dialogue with applicants and grantees:

- Friendly space expectations

Inactivity in the committee or not following the eligibility criteria and behavioral expectations can result in removal from the committee.
- Committee surveys and feedback
