MCDC members at the Wikimedia Summit 2024

Recording of the Movement Charter Ask Me Anything (AMA) session, April 26 2024

In April, the full draft of the Movement Charter was published on Meta in different languages. The Movement Charter Drafting Committee (MCDC) invited all stakeholders in the Wikimedia world to share their feedback in any language. The Committee communicated in various ways to reach as many people in the vast landscape of the Wikimedia movement as possible: Meta, community spaces (Village pumps, forums), Central Notice Banner and via the support of the Movement Charter Ambassadors.

On April 4, the Committee held a community engagement meeting where they dived into the content of the draft Charter and heard feedback from attendees.

In the second part of the call, participants were invited to express what they support in the draft Charter, identify any concerns that would prevent them from supporting the Charter and suggest specific ways to improve clarity of the Charter text for the final release in June.

Some questions asked during the April 4th call included inquiries about the legal status of the proposed Global Council, distinctions between the Global Council Board and Global Council Assembly, and highlights of the Charter relevant to emerging communities. Responses shared during the April 4th call to these questions have been documented on Meta.

April was packed for the MCDC. While involved in online community engagement and conversations, they also attended the Wikimedia Summit 2024 in Berlin. Below you will find details of MCDC’s work in this month:

The MCDC met for their regular meeting on April 11 to hear updates on the candidate pool for the Charter Election Commission, discuss and prepare for Wikimedia Summit 2024.
Between April 17 and 21 the MCDC attended the Wikimedia Summit: MCDC members served as a resource for Summit attendees. They provided answers to questions, clarified aspects of the charter, and collected feedback. Summit participants engaged in working groups focused on specific charter related topics. These groups discussed areas for improvement, brainstormed ideas, identified potential dealbreakers, and celebrated the areas they appreciated. The summit resulted in a set of outputs generated by participants.
On April 25 during their regular meeting, the Committee discussed learnings from the WM Summit, community engagement period, and they were updated on the communication plans for post draft Charter engagement by the Communications SubCommittee.
“Ask Me Anything” about the Movement Charter session was held via Zoom on April 26. This session was organized as a response to the feedback heard from different communities on the need to onboard them on the Charter text in detail. The walkthrough of the charter is available to watch on Wikimedia Commons in Spanish and Portuguese (Brazilian).

End of the April 2024 feedback period. What’s next?

The MCDC is grateful for all the comments, suggestions and questions. The MCDC considers all the feedback, and works to update the final version of the Movement Charter accordingly between April 30 and mid-May. After which the text goes through several preparatory phases before it can be published, including copy-editing review, legal review, and translations.

The final Movement Charter text is expected to be shared in the third week of June. The Movement-wide ratification vote on the Movement Charter will take place between June 25 to July 9, 2024. The Charter will be voted on by among others: Individual contributors, affiliates, and the Board of Trustees of the WMF.

March 2024

February 2024

This update has also been published at Wikimedia Foundation's Diff blog.

The Movement Charter Drafting Committee (MCDC) continues drafting the Movement Charter for the Wikimedia Movement in alignment with recommendation #4 of the Movement Strategy, which advocates for ensuring equity in decision-making processes.

In early February, the Committee members assigned themselves to new roles: chapter stewards and chapter internal reviewers. The chapter stewards worked towards refining each chapter to a “good enough” version. These chapters then underwent a preliminary, two-week-long review phase by a diverse group of reviewers and advisors. The reviewers group included former members of the MCDC, members of communities and affiliates, WMF Board of Trustees (BoT) members, and members of the Affiliations Committee. The MCDC received invaluable proposals for improvement from their advisors and reviewers on the full Charter draft both in writing and during their closed call with the advisors on February 22. The Committee extends its gratitude to everyone who invested their volunteer time and provided constructive feedback. This collective effort shows the shared ownership and commitment of all involved parties.

MCDC’s February convenings

1 February – MCDC’s regular meeting: Committee members recapped the outcomes of their January in-person meeting and spent most of their time drafting in breakout rooms. During this meeting, it was decided that the roles of chapter stewards would include deciding which points need to be voted on by the full MCDC, drafting their respective chapters, preparing readers’ notes, integrating feedback from reviewers, and resolving comments from the MCDC, among others. The internal chapter reviewers provided actionable feedback on the chapters for which they volunteered. In addition, the Committee reached an agreement to produce three layers of text, namely: 1) the full Movement Charter draft, 2) Reader’s notes – to assist readers in understanding the context and intention, and 3) Supplementary documents – this level provides background information on the charter content. It focuses on how to advance the Charter after ratification and serves as a form of handover to the future Global Council.
2 February – Meeting with WMDE to discuss details of the Wikimedia Summit 2024.
5 February – A group within the MCDC met to discuss the Global Council text, other members worked a-sync to improve the chapter texts.
8 February – MCDC’s regular meeting: Chapter stewards provided updates on their work progress and discussed the next steps, the Committee then discussed the Global Council draft.
10 February – A group within the MCDC met to finalize the Global Council text for the preliminary review by advisors and reviewers.
15 February – MCDC’s regular meeting: The Committee discussed the chunks they will present for deliberations at the Wikimedia Summit 2024. In addition, the Committee spent some time preparing for their closed call with advisors and reviewers of the Charter draft.
22 February – MCDC’s closed call with Advisors to provide space to listen to the feedback from the advisors and reviewers on the draft Charter.
24-25 February – MCDC’s online working weekend: This weekend was dedicated to the incorporation and reconciliation of the feedback received from the advisors and reviewers.
February 29 – MCDC’s regular meeting: The chapter stewards shared updates on each chapter. The Committee members brainstormed about the questions or topics they want to bring to the table at the Strategic Retreat with the WMF staff, WMF BoT, and WMF Endowment in New York on March 7 & 8.

In other news

The Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation shared their perspectives on the Global Council. In this letter, the BoT presented some areas of responsibility to reassign from the Foundation to the Global Council as well as the changes that are not under consideration for the time being. Please read the full message on Meta.

Upcoming community engagement period on the full draft Charter

The MCDC will share the full Charter with everyone on April 2 on Meta-wiki to kick off the community engagement period between April 2 - April 22. We encourage all members of the Wikimedia community, including movement volunteers, individual online contributors, Affiliates, project communities, stakeholders, regional groups, and WMF staff, to actively engage with the Charter draft during the community engagement period. This means carefully reviewing the draft and providing suggestions for improvement to the MCDC. Acknowledging that this period overlaps with the Wikimedia Summit between April 19-21, where many affiliates will convene, this engagement is inclusive of all stakeholders, including those who won’t be at the Summit or are part of an affiliate. Community engagement details will be shared on Meta closer to the start of the engagement.

The movement-wide voting period on the full Movement Charter will take place between June 12-25.

January 2024

This update has also been published at Wikimedia Foundation's Diff blog.

During the last weekend of January, the Movement Charter Drafting Committee came together with the aim of finalizing the updates on the previously written drafts. The Committee’s sessions in Atlanta were designed collaboratively, covering discussions, drafting, and planning sessions.

In January the MCDC met five times, including meetings with key movement stakeholders before their in-person convening.

January 4 – MCDC’s regular meeting: The Committee discussed proposals on the Affiliate structure as well as the Global Council with a focus on grantmaking. The support staff conducted a “Committee health check” to hear how the Committee members felt about appointing new members and overall the workload. Note: You can read more about membership below. It was also suggested to invite copy-editors for the full charter draft.
January 8: Some MCDC members joined the meeting with WM DE on the Wikimedia Summit plans.
January 11: MCDC’s regular meeting: The Committee walked through the plans for their in-person meeting, and continued their discussions regarding the Affiliate proposal as well as the Global Council (grantmaking).
January 12: Several MCDC members joined an informative call on the Affiliate Strategy updates with the Board of Trustees liaisons to discuss the points of convergence and divergence between the MCDC proposals for Affiliates and the Board’s Affiliate Strategy.
January 18: MCDC’s regular meeting: The Committee discussed key questions that needed to be addressed in their upcoming in-person meeting. Content-wise, the members discussed the functions of the Global Council, and reviewed the Roles & Responsibilities draft, among others.
January 26-28: The Committee convened for an in-person meeting, engaging in collective work that included both discussions and drafting sessions. MCDC members were joined by the BoT liaisons Nataliia Tymkiv and Lorenzo Losa, and for the first time, the General Council of the WMF Stephen LaPorte to support the Committee on legal questions.

Among the important questions for the Committee to agree on were the functions and purpose of the Global Council, its structure, and membership, including a comparison of the Small Body model and the Assembly with a Board model. Hubs discussions included revenue generation and funds distribution; while Roles & Responsibilities discussions included a new idea about the function to mediate and arbitrate disputes between members and other bodies in the movement. The changes will be reflected in the draft of the full charter, which will be shared for community consultation in early April.

In other news

Update on membership: Érica Azzellini stepped down from membership for personal reasons (see full announcement). The MCDC resolved that starting from January 2023 there will be no further replacements of its members. In their post-Wikimania 2023 meeting in Singapore, the Committee revisited this conversation and concluded that onboarding new members at this point in the drafting process will take a lot of time and energy away from the drafting. At the same time, the Advisors have been following the MCDC’s process and sometimes have had the opportunity for the first review and feedback on the content. The list of 30+ Advisors from all over the world is expected to give the drafting committee the diverse perspectives and experiences required.

Community Feedback Summary: The summary of feedback received on the Movement Charter drafts collected throughout its events and conversations period on wiki and in community calls spanning September 3 – December 31, 2023, is available Meta.

Participate in the survey regarding the Global Council: Based on the suggestions from the MCDC’s monthly open community calls, the support staff has put together a straw poll to gauge the perspectives on some of the expectations related to the purpose, role, and function of the Global Council. This poll will propose some of the areas of accountability and decision-making derived from the historic resolutions of global nature from the Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation to define where movement participants think these decisions should be made in the future.

The deadline has been extended, you can fill out the survey until February 24. You can respond to the survey publicly on Meta or use the anonymous Google Forms survey. All the responses will be accounted for in the MCDC’s discussions related to the Global Council.

What’s next

Draft of the full Movement Charter will be published in April for community engagement

February – March: The MCDC is working on finalizing the draft of the full charter, including sharing a preliminary version with Advisors, former MCDC members, and the WMF Board of Trustees for review before the MCDC updates the draft again. Then, the updated draft will go through copy-editing, legal review, and translations before it is published for community engagement.
February 22: A closed call with Advisors and the other reviewers is scheduled to give feedback to the MCDC about the preliminary draft.
In March, the MCDC members will prepare for the Wikimedia Summit, attend the WMF Strategy Meeting in NYC on March 7-8, and prepare for the upcoming community consultations.
March Open Community Call: TBD
April 2-22: Draft of full charter is shared on Meta, and community engagement period commences! (Details forthcoming).

November 2023

This update has also been published at Wikimedia Foundation's Diff blog.

In November, the Movement Charter Drafting Committee (MCDC) members engaged in a series of meetings and discussions, continuing on their commitment to shaping the future of the Wikimedia movement. It has been quite an interesting time for the MCDC to experiment with the open monthly drop-in sessions to engage with community members more regularly. You can read more about their work in the text below. Looking ahead, the MCDC is gearing up for the December 7th open session and is set to share high-level responses to community feedback in January 2024. With the effort and engagement of the past few months, the MCDC is in full work mode to pave the way for their in-person meeting in late January dedicated to consolidating the Charter content and preparing for the next phase of community consultations.

In November 2023, the MCDC met eight times:

November 2 – Monthly drop-in session: This monthly session with the community continued discussions from last month on the structure of the Global Council. The supporting team has provided a recap of the conversation on the Movement Charter’s talk page. For those who missed this session, recording is available on Youtube. Among the participants of the two drop-in sessions, there was a lack of representation from Latin America and the Caribbean, the Middle East and North Africa, and ESEAP regions. Next drop-in session is scheduled for December 7 at 15.00 UTC (check your local time). We invite you to sign-up on Meta.
November 3 – Stakeholder meeting: The MCDC met with Selena Deckelmann, Chief Product and Technology Officer at the Wikimedia Foundation, for the second time. The discussion centered around the work that needs to be done to truly pursue Movement Strategy pillars, with a specific focus on Knowledge Equity from a Product and Technology perspective. Some of the topics discussed included volunteer sustainability, particularly providing support to online editors; the importance of clearly defining the scope and expectations from the Tech Council; and exploring the implications for the Movement Charter by adding the lens of content generation.
November 9 – MCDC weekly meeting: The Committee members were briefed on preparations for Wikimedia Summit 2024. The Committee has shifted its weekly meeting time to 15:00 UTC due to wintertime changes. Based on the diverse feedback received from July to September 2, 2023, along with insights from the monthly drop-in sessions, various aspects of the Global Council were discussed within the Committee, including financial implications. The Committee is exploring new proposals on the Global Council topic.
November 16 – MCDC weekly meeting: Continuing the discussions on the new proposals for the Global Council draft.
November 23 – MCDC weekly meeting: The review of the revised Hubs draft was skipped due to not having a quorum of committee members at the live meeting. MCDC members started preparing for their in-person meeting in January 2023, which aims to produce a preliminary draft of the full Charter, to be consulted on ahead of the Wikimedia Summit.
November 28 – Stakeholder meeting: The MCDC met with the Senior Leadership of the WMF.
November 29 – Stakeholder meeting: The MCDC met with an Affiliations Committee (AffCom) liaison to discuss feedback from the AffCom.
November 30 – MCDC weekly meeting: The MCDC discussed proposals on the Global Council draft.

MCDC in-person meeting: The Committee will gather for three days of working sessions in January 2024. The main aim is to consolidate the content and prepare for the next community consultation of the full Charter ahead of the Wikimedia Summit.

October 2023

This update has also been published at Wikimedia Foundation's Diff blog.

In October 2023, the MCDC convened for a total of five meetings. Three of these meetings were dedicated to their drafting sessions, during which MCDC members discussed the Global Council draft and addressed open questions about the Hubs draft.

As part of their stakeholder engagement efforts, the MCDC members met with Selena Deckelmann, Chief Product and Technology Officer of the Wikimedia Foundation. The meeting served as a platform for mutual learning and the exchange of ideas between the MCDC and the Foundation's Product and Technology perspective. The MCDC also held a meeting with the Affiliations Committee members to learn more about their work and discuss the role of AffCom in the Global Council draft.

Following Wikimania, the MCDC decided to shift from working within separate Drafting Groups to collaborating as a unified committee and drafting collectively each week instead of bi-weekly. They also decided to open one of their regular weekly meetings to community members each month, so that there is better engagement with the movement. MCDC’s first drop-in session took place on October 5. You can watch the recording on YouTube.

MCDC October open session

The October 5 Movement Charter Community drop-in session’s topic was the Structure of the Global Council. The guiding question was “why is this model the best for the Global Council?” In small self-assigned groups, participants explored three possible models: one in which there is no permanent body (“No Global Council”), a large consultative council modeled after the General Assembly model (“General Assembly”), and a small-sized council (“Small Committee”). Three models are based on the feedback received on the Wikimedia projects and at events.

Below find the summary of the discussions:

No Global Council model: In this discussion group, it surfaced that there does not seem to be full consensus regarding whether or not and how to set up the Global Council, and the Wikimedia movement seems to be far from an alignment. In addition, there is an expectation that the Global Council would not change much regarding the representation of the smaller communities and affiliates, and larger ones already have a voice, making structural change redundant. The latter was a point surfaced from the MCDC July-September 2023 community consultations. You can find the notes from the discussion in the Jamboard and also rewatch the report back on YouTube.
General Assembly model: It was a large group discussion, where several areas of reasoning were highlighted. These included 1) greater diversity and representation, giving opportunity for equity and inclusiveness and representing diverse voices, 2) increasing legitimacy and transparency, as for important decisions representation seems to be the key for legitimacy, 3) enhanced human and community capital, essentially having more people power to fulfill its mission. In addition, it was noted that a General Assembly model would codify existing annual convening practices. Finally, the scope of the decision-making authority of the Global Council was also discussed. You can find the notes from the discussion in the Jamboard and also rewatch the report back on YouTube.
Small Committee model: The core reasoning behind the model seems to be its feasibility and effectiveness. It was suggested that a small committee can make decisions faster and would be the only model that creates a platform for meaningful actual discussion. It was suggested that it would make sense to start with an incremental change and setting up a small committee feels the most feasible option. Points were made about the small committee model being less taxing on volunteer time and also having lower administrative overhead. You can find the notes from the discussion in the Jamboard.

When the participants reconvened after the breakout groups, they discussed a question regarding the foundations of the Charter itself. Recap of this conversation is provided on Meta-wiki.

Ongoing work

The Movement Charter Ambassadors are currently holding local community conversations about the Charter to collect feedback and opinions from communities that are traditionally not participating in Wikimedia governance discussions.
MCDC has shared their Advisors list on Meta. Those interested in becoming an Advisor to the MCDC should reach out to movementcharter@wikimedia.org.

Upcoming open community session

The next open session with the communities is scheduled at November 2, 2023, 17:00 UTC. The topic will be shared on the Meta page on November 1. You can join the session via Zoom link (sign your name here) or watch the livestream on Youtube.

MCDC’s upcoming participation at the regional events

WikiIndaba will take place in Morocco from 3 to 5 November. MCDC members Ciell, Georges, Anass will be there to chat with the African Wikimedia communities.
WikiConference North America in Toronto takes place from 9 to 12 November. MCDC members Anne and Pharos will hold a Movement Charter conversation on November 10.

If you are attending any of these events, make sure to connect with MCDC members to discuss the charter and share your thoughts.

August―September 2023

This update has also been published at Wikimedia Foundation's Diff blog.

It has been a busy few months for the Movement Charter Drafting Committee. First, we shared key drafts of the Movement Charter, including sections covering the Global Council and Hubs. Sharing new sections also meant engaging with community members and hearing from you far and wide – on wiki and calls. Second, Wikimania happened and we had to prepare for official and ad hoc in-person (and hybrid) conversations. We have received a great amount of feedback – thanks to so many of you who participated in conversations in person and online – that we are excited to directly weave into our next phase of drafting, more on that later. In this period, we also lost our great friend and colleague Richard, also known under his username Nosebagbear. Richard passed away unexpectedly in August, shortly after arriving home from his first Wikimania event in Singapore.

Community Conversations July―September: We have received extensive feedback from communities and individuals who care about an equitable and participatory movement and want to make their voices reflected in the Charter. A diverse range of sentiments and opinions regarding the four chapters of the Movement Charter received throughout the July-September 2023 community consultation period will be shared here on October 2.
Wikimania 2023: Wikimania 2023 in Singapore was a historic moment, marking the first in-person Wikimania in four years and setting a record as the largest ever, combined with in-person and virtual participation. Eleven members of the Drafting Committee who were present at Wikimania Singapore welcomed feedback at different in-person and live sessions, including an open drop-in session. If you missed the sessions and would like to revisit the discussions, you can access the recorded sessions on The Future Roles and Responsibilities in the Movement, along with the main content discussion session. We appreciate everyone who joined our discussion sessions, listened to the ongoing conversations, shared opinions, and expressed their congratulations, worries, and concerns.
Nosebagbear’s legacy: We extend our deep condolences to Richard’s (Nosebagbear) family, friends, and colleagues. His passing is a significant loss not only for the work of the Movement Charter Drafting Committee but for the entire Wikimedia Movement. Richard has been a Wikimedian since 2018. He was elected by the community to be on the Movement Charter Drafting Committee. He strongly believed that the Movement Charter drafting process should prioritize the collective voice of the community and ensure that decisions were made at the most localized level possible. For him, one of the most binding details of the Charter was about transparency and accountability to the movement. Richard was an active member of the Committee, serving on various subcommittees such as the Global Council, Preamble, and Ratification where he made substantial contributions. Richard’s legacy will continue to inspire us as we work to uphold these values and advance the Wikimedia Movement Charter in the spirit of unwavering dedication.
How we work moving forward: We are making some changes to the way we work. There are key conversations that we should have as a unified group and for this, we will draft as one committee rather than separate drafting groups. We also want to engage with our advisors and interested community members on a regular basis, not just after big updates.

面對面會議:運動憲章起草委員會6月17至19日在柏林第一次面對面會議。有關更多細節，將在近期即將發佈的一篇Diff部落格文章中。會議的目標和結果為：
- 憲章大綱: 憲章大綱的工作有進展。委員會仍在討論大綱（如同一「目次」）該如何組織的幾個選項。

會議

定期的委員會會議：5月8日和22日
通訊小組會議：5月4、11和25日。
價值和原則小組會議：5月12日和30日。

完成的工作

面對面會議的規劃：委員會成員與促進員 (Irene Laochaisri) 合作，為面對面會議準備了完整的日程規劃。會議將於6月17日至19日在德國柏林舉行。主要目標是創建運動憲章的大綱草案，並就起草該大綱內容的方法達成共識。
委員會的通訊報訂閱已開放。訂閱者將每月收到有關運動憲章的諮詢或公開會議的消息和公告。您可以選擇要發送至您哪個項目的討論頁。
替代一位辭職的成員：自治體選擇者小組因為一名委員會成員辭職的緣故，共同決定了一名新成員來替代。關於新成員的正式公告將儘快發布。

與理事會的關係：直到四月底，作為試點理事會的兩名聯絡員每月參加委員會會議30分鐘。事實顯示雙方對此都不滿意。作為替代方案，委員會為理事會提供了一個委員會席位。委員會認為此席位將增加觀點的多樣性，並給予理事會所想要的發言權。然而理事會希望繼續透過聯絡員的方式一同工作，而不是以具有投票權成員的方式參與。因此關於基金會理事會參與的討論仍持續進行中。
工作人員方面的支援：委員會提出了近期對工作人員方面支援的預計需求。這些需求包括以下方面：會議紀錄、會議促進、後勤和項目管理支援、溝通規劃、外展、翻譯和進行研究。維基媒體基金會正對這些需求進行評估，了解當前的支援人手是否能夠滿足這些需求。

完成的工作

行為準則：委員會的內部行為準則已經完成並發布在元維基上。

正在進行的工作和討論

起草運動憲章：起草工作將部分由各小組準備和執行，每個小組都專注於一個特定主題。每個小組都會起草幾個大綱或「種子選項」，並在未來提供給社群審查。委員會首先識別的主題有：價值與原則（作為介紹）、1. 治理、2. 資源，以及3. 社群。

- 價值與原則：現在有一個小組致力於第一個主題（價值與原則）。小組的工作可能首先需要透過研究來開始。
- 批准：委員會認為有等待通用行為準則執行規範批准投票結果並從中學習的需求；委員會認為此模式可能會與未來對運動憲章的批准投票相似。
六月面對面會議：起草委員會將於6月17日至19日在柏林舉行會議。會議議程將著重整個委員會，並更好地定義運動憲章的大綱。
研究與紀錄：委員會正在討論以研究來為其提供資訊或協助其工作上的準備。委員會討論了涵蓋的範圍，以下為可能的方式：1. 透過調查的數據收集和分析（在維基媒體運動中）、2. 總結以前關於維基媒體治理的文件、3. 尋找和比較其他非營利組織的「憲章」，以及/或4. 諮詢專家並與專家互動。
通訊與利害關係者參與：通訊小組已完成了策略溝通計劃。作為計畫的其中一部分，小組現在正在制定「利害關係者參與計劃」，該計劃根據三個級別定義了對運動憲章期望的參與程度：1. 被告知、2. 被諮詢，以及3. 廣泛地參與。

這是最近的一次外展活動的荷蘭文範例。

電子郵件管理：委員會同意了管理和回覆電子郵件的流程。一個公開的電子郵件地址將被儘快公布。
培訓：一些委員會成員正在參加「非暴力溝通」培訓。培訓由巴西組織 Sinergia Comunicativa與維基媒體基金會透過夥伴關係提供。其他有關通訊的培訓正在討論中。
基金會員工的支援：委員會正在討論各小組是否有額外員工支援的需求，特別是通訊和研究小組。
項目管理：運動策略與治理團隊將為運動憲章起草委員會提供管理和跟進工作的支援。

完成的工作

協助促進員入職：委員會歡迎來自InsightPact的Irene，她將擔任委員會的促進員。部分成員參與了她的入職培訓，並就未來他們如何一同合作達成共識。
通訊策略和計劃：通訊小組與運動策略與治理團隊共同製定了溝通策略和計劃。通訊策略稍後將在元維基上發布。
面對面會議的決定：委員會決定選擇柏林為面對面會議的地點。紐約市則為第二選擇（僅在需要時）。德國維基媒體協會預定在6月17日至19日舉辦此次活動。目前正在討論此次活動的議程。

正在進行的工作和討論

起草運動憲章：起草小組就運動憲章的四個主題達成共識－「價值與原則」、「治理」、「社群」與「資源」。這考量了之前維基媒體運動的反饋，比如說2021年6月全球對話。理事會聯絡員也就主題提供了反饋，並表示「價值與原則」為其他項目的基礎。
電子郵件地址：委員會計劃公布一個官方電子郵件地址，任何人都可以通過該地址提交問題和反饋。通訊小組就流程、回覆時間和相關人員的責任來制定最終細節，並計劃在將這些細節帶回四月的運動憲章全體委員會會議做最終決定。
與理事會成員合作：12週與理事會的實驗性合作已經到達尾聲。委員會會與理事會討論目前的方式－每四週會面30分鐘－是否有成效。
運動憲章委員會行為準則：委員會目前正在考慮一份內部行為準則的草案。關於對不活躍成員暫令停職和其他制裁也有廣泛的討論。新的或最終的草案將會在四月提供。
進度審查及確認委員會的進展：委員會成員就他們自己及集體的進度做評估。大家一致認同有很多時間都花在準備工作上，所以委員會的工作速度並不如成員們的預期。但總體來說委員會相信現階段詳盡的審查及討論是重要的，也將有助其解決起草階段的挑戰。

2022年2月

完成的工作

聘請專業的促進員：幾位運動憲章起草委員會的成員參與了面試，以選擇專業人士來支援小組會議。最後決定選擇InsightPact，原因如下：
- 1. 他們能靈活和迭代地進行會議促進，
- 2. 表現出意願能接受所有委員會成員的反饋，
- 3. 他們特定的促進員Irene過去有維基媒體全球對話的經驗。
公布內部決策：在委員會決定後，公布了一份詳細的決策文件。

正在進行的工作和討論

起草運動憲章：一群運動憲章起草委員會成員開始集思廣益，討論他們預期在運動憲章中看到的主題。預計之後會先確定三至五個議題。
與理事會成員合作：經過幾個階段的審議，運動憲章起草委員會和理事會的聯絡員達成共識聯絡員將參與一些定期的起草委員會會議。理事會聯絡員將參與每兩次會議之一的在最後 30 分鐘。這種形式將進行為期三個月的測試。Shani和Natalia於2月20日首次參加委員會會議，他們在會上進行了自我介紹並表示願意支援。
通訊：運動策略與治理團隊創建並向通訊小組委員會提交了運動憲章流程的通訊計畫初稿。然而雙方的期望似乎不同，不論是內容上或基金會能提供的支援上。這導致了不理想的情況。通訊小組現在正與基金會一同合作尋求通訊支援上的替代方案並開始制定一個新的計劃。
面對面會議：委員會認為面對面會議能幫助他們在工作上有進展。根據COVID-19的目前限制、旅行距離/時間和員工能支援的情形比較了幾個會議地點。討論結果為會議很可能於2022年6月在柏林舉行。

2022年1月

內部決策：委員會創建了一份文件，定義了其內部決策的制定方式。您可以在元維基上找到此文件。

正在進行的工作和討論

成員更換：Alice Wiegand（用戶名：Lyzzy）辭去了她在運動憲章起草委員會的職務。因為她是透過選舉而上任的成員，所以她的職位被下一順位符合資格的候選人Reda Kerbouche（用戶名：Reda Kerbouche）取代。更多詳情請參閱更換成員公告。
通訊計劃：運動憲章起草委員會的「溝通小組」成員正在與運動策略與治理團隊合作，以準備一個通訊計劃。
通訊渠道：委員會正在設立一個官方電郵地址以用於通訊。
聘請一位會議促進員：運動憲章起草委員會的成員正在與運動策略與治理團隊合作，為其團體會議選擇合適的促進員。當前則由委員會成員自行促進會議的進行。
與理事會成員互動：維基媒體基金會理事會已於2021年12月請求有兩名以聯絡員身份參加運動憲章起草委員會的會議。這一要求令運動憲章起草委員會成員感到意外。這也引起雙方對出席做出不同的提案，但尚未達成結論。
參加會議：有一位運動憲章起草委員會成員收到為RightsCon峰會提案的邀請。委員會以此為契機，將憲章討論帶到與有類似興趣的非維基媒體利害關係者上。
憲章內容：一些成員開始集思廣益他們對運動憲章可能包括的主要「大綱」和各部分的想法。

2021年12月

運動憲章起草委員會(MCDC)正在準備和計劃其即將開展的工作。委員會於12月5日和19日舉行會議（每次會議時間為兩小時。會議的初步結果預計將在不久後分享，請參閱以下的概要。

進行中的工作

起草委員會正在進行以下工作：

原則：委員會仍在制定指導原則以定義其工作（例如，委員會被授權的範圍、其工作的期間等）。這些原則預計將在一月底完成並在元維基上發布。
內部決策：在相關主題中，委員會也在定義如何做出內部決策（例如：何時需要就決策達成共識？）。
通訊：委員會正在制定通訊計劃，以確保其工作將包括適當的外展和信息傳播。委員會正在與維基媒體基金會的運動策略與治理團隊協作制定該計劃，該團隊將為執行該計劃提供支援。
時間表：正在討論運動憲章流程的初步時間表。它將在一月份作為運動憲章元維基頁面的更新發布。該時間表預期上將不會是最終版本，因為在諮詢期和批准期將需要一些彈性。

會議的概要

委員會在會議中討論的主要議題：

會議：委員會成員同意每兩週在星期日舉行一次會議，節日假期除外。下次會議將於1月9日舉行。
促進：委員會成員將自行促進會議，直到聘請專業促進者（這一過程也由委員會監督，並由運動策略與治理團隊支援）。專業的會議促進預計將於2022年2月開始。
多樣性和專業：根據設置流程，委員會可以選擇「透過一致共識增加最多三名候選人」。雖然在多樣性方面似乎沒有立即的缺口，但委員會可能在未來徵求專家意見或增加「觀察員」成員。
理事會會議：委員會成員於2021年12月22日與理事會的兩名成員首次會面。除了雙方的介紹外，主要談話要點是關於委員會和理事會之間的協作形式，以及將透過什麼類型的溝通/會議來塑造這種協作。
工作管理：委員會正在測試一個線上軟件Asana，用於分配和管理其工作。該服務將由維基媒體基金會提供。

2021年11月

運動憲章起草委員會（MCDC）於2021年11月1日被任命。此後，該委員會會面了兩次（在11月10日和11月18日），並在這兩次會面之間及之後開展了多項工作。目前，委員會正開始建立一個能一同工作的系統，並將繼續每兩週一次的討論，也向社群提供至少每月一次的更新。以下是該委員會迄今為止討論的摘要，以及委員會正在處理的工作項目。

正在進行的工作

委員會目前正在從事以下工作：

起草委員會正在建立其內部運作和系統，包括在促進、溝通、工作流程、職責與授權、原則（請見以下）、時間線以及其他方面。由於十二月和一月之間的假期，這些不同的工作預計將持續至2022年初。
委員會正在創建指導其未來工作的原則，包括如何做出決定、委員會應向誰報告、其被授權的是什麼等等。這些原則預計將在委員會12月19日第四次會議後定稿並分享。
該委員會正在創建一個角色列表以闡明起草委員會成員的預期職責以及其所需要來自維基媒體基金會或外部促進者的支援。總體而言，基金會預計將提供運作上的支援，以便起草委員會成員可以專注於收集並起草內容。

討論

會議中所討論的議題：

透明度是一個來自社群非常熱門的要求。委員會成員同意採用查塔姆守則來處理之：「任何參加會議的人都可以自由使用討論中的資訊，但不得透露誰發表了任何特定評論。」
需要在透明度和起草委員會會議所分享的資訊量之間取得平衡。主要更新將每個月分享一次，直到委員會準備好開始收集社群反饋和意見;希望能在2022年初展開。
起草委員會的「權力」和/或授權應闡明，對委員會和運動都是。有人建議使用 DARCI框架來定義委員會的確切角色。關於起草委員會應「向誰報告」，有部分人支持「向運動」報告。
批准運動憲章草案是一個仍在討論中的問題。其中一些建議是：
- 1. 向社群提交一份完整的草稿，社群可以選擇擇批准或拒絕，
- 2. 透過迭代過程社群以「里程碑」的方式逐步審閱運動憲章草案的各個部分。
在起草之前，預期上委員會需要就運動憲章的主要「議題或大綱」達成共識。由於透過1５個人一同腦力激盪會花費很多時間，因此有人建議成員可以再分小組一同腦力激盪，然後之後再一同達成共識（類似全球對話的方式）。
運動憲章起草委員會工作的時間線最初預計需要12到18個月。為這一段期間制定更詳細的時間表是委員會接下來的步驟和職責之一。
