Hello!

Tardy Happy new year wishes to all of you! Let’s make it a great one!

What’s new?

Here is the list of hubs, who have gone through the peer-acceptance telco by now, and (are being) approved by the board.

There are also 8 hubs in the waiting line - we’re coordinating with everybody to find a suitable time as we speak.

Keep you applications coming in, and/or get in touch to discuss your ideas or concerns how to move forward with your planned local hub or thematic group !

To do so,

1. submit your application here https://mydata.org/initiatives/
2. I will then send you a doodle poll to find a time for peer-acceptance call together with a fellow Initiative!
3. Once your application is seconded, we will put up a motion to the MyData Global Board to approve your status!

Funding opportunity

All the approved Initiatives will be listed in mydata.org/initiatives http://mydata.org/initiatives & the MyData Global membership payment form https://holvi.com/shop/MyDataGlobal/section/membership-fees/. Both individual and organisational members will then have a chance to allocate 50% of their membership fees to sole use of a one Initiative.

It’s a great opportunity to gather some funding for your future projects and engage with your participants!

Don’t forget to recommend the new people to join as members at mydata.org/mydata-global-membership-application/ http://mydata.org/mydata-global-membership-application/!

Join a Global call on Friday, Jan 18th at 11am (CET)

Let’s tune in at #global channel https://mydataglobal.slack.com/messages/C8T25FW8P to discuss how to make the network of MyData initiatives even stronger.

• What are the key actions that can empower motivated people in various places in the world to kickstart a Local hub and/or Thematic Group?
• What needs to happen, so that we can start an inspiring and useful cross-collaboration within the community?

I have some suggestions, what are yours?

Looking forward to hear from you all!

Sincerely, Sille Sepp Community lead of MyData Global https://mydata.org/ Become a member!  https://mydata.org/mydata-global-membership-application/ sign the MyData Declaration https://mydata.org/declaration
