[edit]Liaison relationships with other Working Groups.
More responses from people taking up liaison roles is required, and a concrete communication message needs to be drafted that can be used when approaching other working Groups, some of them might be on holiday, so this will be on the agenda for the next Community Health Working Group regular meeting in January.
Moving Forward documents
Pavan came across people working on Community health in various ways in India who provided recommendations, on participation, resources, structure, group culture and suggestions on processes and guidelines that need to be in place for community health, both online and offline. He also discussed some ideas on Community Health with the Wikimedia Foundation staff liaison. Pavan will be sharing notes from these discussions.
Facilitation of meetings
In order to move forward faster, the Working Group will talk to facilitators to progress with this task which requires content generation from the 5 clusters that can have small groups making summaries from breakout sessions just like in the previous facilitated meeting.
It had been agreed to have the document worked on till January when people are back from holiday, a reminder will be sent to have members’ input before the facilitators are invited. Facilitation will only be needed for selected meetings as agreed by the Working Group members.
Platforms and the next meeting
There are minor connection problems with hangouts/meet, so it will be the primary platform for Community Health working group discussions, zoom will be mainly used for facilitated sessions.
The next office hours session is on new years’ eve, since most members might be on holiday, the Working Group will consider meeting again in the new year for the regular call, and resuming office hours.
