| Почему вы баллотируетесь в Совет попечителей Фонда Викимедиа? Какой вклад вы хотели бы сделать? О чем хотели бы узнать больше? | Читательская аудитория Википедии растет меньшими темпами, чем уровень использования интернета ― количество редакторов остается неизменным. Инструменты генеративного ИИ захватывают интернет, в то время как Википедия все еще находится в эпохе "Веб 2.0". Мы должны сосредоточиться на том, чтобы Стратегическое направление Викимедиа 2030 не изменилось "до 2030 года и чтобы движение Викимедиа все еще было актуальным”. Я баллотируюсь в Совет попечителей по следующим причинам:
Я привнесу перспективу первого цифрового поколения, значительный опыт управления в рамках Викимедиа и убежденность в необходимости сотрудничества со всеми, кто хочет продвигать миссию Викимедиа. | |
| Пожалуйста, опишите ваш опыт в Викимедиа (такой как вклад в проекты Викимедиа, членство в организациях Викимедиа, деятельность в качестве организатора мероприятий движения Викимедиа или участие в партнерских организациях движения Викимедиа). | Начиная с 2022 г. ― член совета и секретарь ― Викимедиа Европа, международная ассоциация из 27 европейских партнерских и локальных организаций ("хаб").
2020–2023 гг. – Управляющий совет – Викимедиа Польша.

| По вашему мнению, каким вещам Фонд Викимедиа должен уделить особое внимание в течение следующих 5-10 лет и почему вы считаете их наиболее приоритетными? | Правовые и регуляторные риски. Изменения в законодательстве и вредные правительственные действия могут привести к закрытию Википедии в считанные минуты. Чтобы защитить наши проекты, Движение Викимедиа должно наращивать свои усилия в области общественной политики.
Рост "технического долга". Сотни сотрудников и волонтеров работают над нашими технологиями. Тысячи необслуживаемых строк программного кода ставят их работу под угрозу. Необходим масштабный анализ и новые приоритеты, чтобы наши пользователи не испытывали проблем и чтобы наши вебсайты могли обслуживать читателей и учитывать их изменяющиеся подходы к потреблению знаний. | |
| Optional questions - Professional Experience, Skills and Education | ||
| Please describe your experience with governing bodies of organizations (nonprofit or for-profit), mentioning the scope of your responsibilities, as well as the complexity of the organization (in terms of scale of operations, budget, number of people involved, or other meaningful measures) and the size of the board or body. | 2020–2023 – Served a record three terms (I, II & III) on the University of Warsaw Spatial Development Committee, overseeing the real estate developments at Poland’s and CEE’s largest university (40k+ students; $500+ mln budget; ~505 mi² real estate) 2020–2023 – Co-led and advised Wikimedia Poland during intensive growth periods (from 3,5 FTEs to a maximum of 11 employees in 24 months) and governance changes. Co-led the budget creation and Yearly Plans ($500k+) for 2021 and 2022. Since 2022 – Participated in creating Wikimedia Europe. Elected to its first Board. | |
| Please describe your professional career experience. | Since 2023, I have been an expert in the Working Group on AI, IoT, and Disruptive Technologies at the Digital Affairs Ministry (AI, Human Rights and Democracy group). I am the primary author of multiple Wikimedia public policy commentaries/opinions in Poland; affecting the shape of policy at hearings of Parliament committees and ministries. From 2020 to 2022, I worked at the Wikimedia Foundation on the Movement Strategy team. I coordinated the largest plwiki consultations in history, supported the UCOC process (Phase II, Enforcement), and worked on the 2021 and 2022 BoT elections. I organized the largest candidate debate of BoT elections (with over 90 people in attendance). I facilitated Annual Plan conversations with CEE communities (including in person). I have:
In high school, I co-founded and ran Ludwik Rajchman Foundation, then the largest youth-run NGO in Poland and organizer of the largest youth conference in the CEE, focused on career outreach to young people (2400+ beneficiaries, est. 2,5mln USD in social value generated). For this, I’ve been ranked Forbes 25 Under 25. | |
| Please briefly describe 3 situations that show how you tackled, or advised others on, a complex problem in an organization. How did you work with others to address the situations? | In 2022, I led the search for Wikimedia Poland's CEO, which overlapped with major personnel and governance changes (board elections; updated organizational strategy). I remained active for several extra months until the CEO onboarding ended. | |
| Please describe your educational background, including degrees, certificates, and courses of study finished, and their relevance to board work. | BA Management of Social Potential – University of Warsaw, PL MSc Business and Social Impact – Universiteit Utrecht, NL – Ongoing, graduation in 2024 Courses:

| Optional questions - Leadership Experience | ||
| Please describe ways in which you have helped to form a bridge between multiple communities (such as by working on projects outside your home wiki, or working on a collaboration between multiple affiliates). | I am the Lead Organizer of Wikimania 2024. Since the beginning, I envisioned this event reflecting CEE cooperation. I have the pleasure of directing an 80+ team from over 20 countries who collaborate to make the best event and celebration for our community. As a Let's Connect member, I led and co-organized international Learning Clinics that brought together volunteers from tens of countries/affiliates. | |
| Can you describe a policy, on wiki or off, that you helped to create or change? What did you learn from this experience? |
| |
| How have you been able to empower people to make their voices heard? |
| |
| Sometimes in professional situations, there are personality conflicts. Explain how you remain productive even with personality conflicts. | As a member of the University of Warsaw’s Disciplinary Committee (term 2020-2024), I am no stranger to interpersonal conflicts. Disagreeing civilly in a group is healthy as long as it leads to productive outcomes. I completed mediation training at the Polish Mediation Center, which I am prepared to use in difficult situations. | |
| Optional questions - Strategic Thinking | ||
| Where do you see the need for greater diversity in the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees or within the movement? What steps would you take to improve diversity on the Board or within the movement? What steps would you recommend the Board take to improve diversity? | I grew up gay in a small Polish town. While geographically in Europe, Poland differs greatly from the West. It is the most homophobic country in the EU. During my adolescence, my homeland had declared over ⅓ of the country an LGBT-free zone. I’ve participated in Pride parades that were met by neo-Nazis, burning tires or throwing stones. I spent my youth witnessing the dismantling of media freedom and democratic institutions in my country. The experience of living in an increasingly autocratic country is super important for a global movement championing open knowledge. Yet, most trustees come from well-established democracies with only a theoretical understanding of censorship and oppression. | |
