After doing a bunch of #gigwork #DoorDash and other odd jobs to pay for various/sundry requirements of TCC's nursing program, I had a bit of spare money left over for June. Closing June out by becoming a normal member of the Open Street Map Foundation for a year (and hopefully many more).

For the last 2 years, the Local Chapters and Communities Working Group (LCCWG) conducted multiple consultations, in conferences, online and face to face, synchronous and asynchronous, on how we can improve the OSMF Affiliation Model. All of them are documented in the OSM Wiki

Improving the affiliation scheme of the OSMF - OpenStreetMap Wiki

I think one of the ways #OpenStreetMap Foundation can stay true in its Diversity Statement [1] and to put it in action is improving its Local Chapters processes and Affiliation Model. Currently, OSMF has 18 Local Chapters, only 5 of which is outside the European region.

I also shared this and a brief personal reflection in my diary: https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/arnalielsewhere/diary/405618

As closing, my hope for the OSMF is to continue to push for gender and geographic representation and inclusive participation in leadership spaces as well as increase transparency and commitment to open collaboration among its board, members and the community.

The 2024 Year of OSMF: A Collective Board Report

I was thinking of sharing my experience and reflection for my second year as an OSMF board member, like I did in my first year, then thought, it would be better and greater to write it with my co-board members.

Consultation on fundraising strategy
