This is being reworked. There are several areas of WMUK work that may be positively affected by the activity in this area, even if it's not its main goal. These include:
*Successful FKAGEU activity increases awareness of the opportunities to participate in WM projects - At least three active off-wiki volunteers are recruited as a result of the advocacy (UK volunteer community is thriving)
*Content being released independently by the UK institutions - The FKAGEU advocacy activity results in at least one new partnership with a UK institution (improvement in quantity of Open Content increases)

Description and overall rationale

Open space advocacy work - we want to make an impact in the wider open knowledge movement. This is a new area where we will be trialing various approaches to benchmark for the following year - in particular building an Open Coalition, and engaging with the Free Knowledge Advocacy Group EU. As an aspiration we want to be seen as subject experts in the field of Open.

A key elements of this project will be dependent on the Project Coordinator - a job description for whom can be seen here.

Timelines - i.e. what happens quarter by quarter
