Description
Topic
How and when should the Office Hours expand beyond English to serve contributors in other languages and regions?
Why this topic?
Yusuf shared in the #training Slack channel:
"I support this, we can start with English then make it broader. I would love to be part of the planning."
"Regional groups are encouraged to host their own Office Hour Meetings in their respective languages."
Suggested discussion questions
- Which language communities in the Training team are large enough to run their own sessions?
- What support (templates, process, coordination) do regional organizers need?
- Should regional meetings follow the same structure as the English one?
- How do we avoid fragmentation while still being inclusive?
Proposed by
Yusuf (via Slack #training, March 2026)
