Systematic approach to improve satisfaction and productivity
Increasing the Sustainability of the Wikimedia Movement has two sides: 1. Money, and 2. People. In order to help keep the people in the Wikimedia movement and bring new Wikimedians aboard, there should be a Systematic approach to improve their satisfaction and productivity. For example, Wikimedians should be recognized for their work, not only in editing articles but also in less-visible activities, like advocating for changes in public policy, conducting research, providing training and more. Additionally, their needs should be assessed in different contexts to provide them with the kind of support they require, and to accommodate the diversity of contributors in the movement.
Develop a systematic approach to improve the satisfaction and productivity of people engaged in the Movement by:
- Assessing the needs of groups and volunteers, taking into account their local contexts for effective support and recognition of efforts.
- Continuously engaging and supporting publicly diverse types of online and offline contributors.
