Strategic Plan
The five movement priorities hold specific opportunities and challenges for chapters:
- Stabilize infrastructure Chapters provide important capacity for the movement’s
work, however most are still young. The chapters will need to improve their capacity to serve their communities at a greater scale of impact.
- Community-building activities to help reinforce social bonds.
- Increase participation Chapters will continue to play an active role in
organizing and funding in-person community gatherings and in conducting outreach programs to bring new, diverse groups to Wikimedia’s projects.
- Communications to improve the understanding of Wikimedia and engage with
and respond to media and other stakeholder inquiries.
- Outreach activities to expand and add diversity to the community of volunteers
contributing to Wikimedia projects.
- Community-building activities to help reinforce social bonds.
- Improve quality Chapters will continue to support the work of editors and pursue
opportunities to free knowledge in their geographies for use in the projects. They also have an important role in creating content partnerships with cultural institutions in their geographic area.
- Communications to improve the understanding of Wikimedia and engage with
and respond to media and other stakeholder inquiries.
- Advocacy on behalf of free knowledge.
- Knowledge-creation projects to add valuable resources to Wikimedia projects.
- Partnerships development with cultural and knowledge institutions to help make knowledge free, and to help institutions contribute to Wikimedia.
- Increase reach Chapters provide the local expertise, infrastructure and passion
that can help to spur project growth. As the movement focuses more energy on the Global South, it will be valuable to build chapters in Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East & North Africa, and Latin America.
- Community-building activities to help reinforce social bonds.
- Knowledge-creation projects to add valuable resources to Wikimedia projects.
- Partnerships development with cultural and knowledge institutions to help make knowledge free, and to help institutions contribute to Wikimedia.
- Encourage innovation Chapters should encourage innovation among the
communities they serve and experiment with new approaches to their work.
- Fundraising to support the Wikimedia Foundation’s global activities and to fund the activities of the chapter and the local community.
