Connections made

I made quite a number of connections at the conference of old and new friends, Amongst them Euphemia, Touchi, Candy are names I have heard about and gotten the opportunity to chat and engage with and also plan on working with during the course of the year.

Learning points

I was able to learn more about the New Grants Strategy and what the changes at WMF Community Resources imply for community organisers. I also learnt about the Use Of QRcode (QRpedia) as a tool to Generate QRcodes. A project I would love to engage in the new year.

Outcome

To become actively involved in my language wiki’s and create more visibility about it and add to its knowledge and growth.
