==SuSa departmental program proposals==
=== Program Name: ''Improving Trust and Safety processes''===
SuSa will create a complaint processing map of its and related community workflows to make more transparent to the team’s stakeholders - communities, affiliates, Foundation staff, and partners - what kinds of complaints the team refers to community processes under current practice and which types it does handle. The program will reduce the risk of double work on the same issues from staff and volunteer functionaries, improve SuSa and functionary coordination, cut processing times of cases warranting SuSa’s attention through improved triaging, reduce the number of misplaced cases or cases with a severely delayed response, and identify gaps in community and SuSa work that ought to be addressed in future projects.

'''How does your program affect the annual plan topline goal:''' ''
Foundational strength: By improving existing Trust and Safety processes and creating new ones where required, we enhance the capacity of the team and, by extension, the volunteers it collaborates with on improving community health, proactively (through policy & process) as well as reactively  (through improved case handling based on relevant policy and process).''
|-
! colspan="2" |'''Program Goals'''

Program goals are clear statements of the overall purpose of a program and should explain how we expect the program’s outcomes to change the world.

| colspan="2" |'''Program Goal:'''

''The health of Wikimedia communities improves through enhanced capabilities of the Trust and Safety team; identify developing behavioral trends, adapt existing processes to the changed community health environment, create new ones where needed (including new policy and software tools), handle cases from a wider range of communities more effectively, and manage expectations better than to date.

=== Program Name: ''Voices under Threat'' ===
Building on the preparatory work in Q3-4 of 17/18, the program will create and pool resources with a network of aligned organizations on how to navigate external risks and threats to individual contributors and groups supporting open knowledge. It will identify and establish relationships with and provide support for marginalised Wikimedians through a group of volunteer advisors.
