Wikimedia Aoteaora New Zealand
Similar to Wikimedia Australia (WMAU), Wikimedia Aotearoa New Zealand (WANZ) serves as the New Zealand chapter of the Wikimedia Foundation.
Given our shared geographical location and goals in Oceania, WMAU and WANZ frequently collaborate to pool resources and support our communities for educational events and campaigns related to the Wikimedia and free knowledge movement.
