This recommendation proposes the idea of underpinning our Movement with continuous processes to analyze our ecosystems, raise awareness on their current state, and plan for our continued growth. It is foundational to all other recommendations, as, without analysis of where we are and how we do things, we cannot adjust and make changes to guarantee our future growth and sustainability. |
Debemos evaluar todas las áreas, incluyendo la cobertura de contenido, la diversidad e inclusión de la comunidad y la gobernanza[1], el desarrollo de habilidades, el impacto de las asociaciones, la eficiencia tecnológica y la posibilidad de uso y accesibilidad de las plataformas. Los resultados deben ser comunicados amplia y claramente en todo el Movimiento para aumentar la autoconciencia y la responsabilidad de todas las partes interesadas, permitiéndonos adaptar nuestras estrategias en consecuencia.
Por qué

As we are planning to create or reorientate new structures and processes to reach our 2030 goals, we must develop comprehensive methods to evaluate whether the path we are taking is leading us in the right direction. Today, the Wikimedia Movement insufficiently evaluates its contents, programs, and processes, making it difficult to identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats, preventing stakeholders from advancing towards both efficiency and impact. To date, efforts to map and build capacity for Movement stakeholders have been ad hoc and un-sustained. The strategic direction requires new thinking, skills, and structures to build evidence-based best practices to document, sustain, and evaluate the progress or failures of programs, including for capacity building and skill development programs, over the long term.[2] |

To overcome the current barriers to growth, we recommend an approach based on several actions. We must develop methodologies to account for meaningful learning and sharing of experiences across our Movement. These methodologies involve planning, evaluation, dissemination of results, and iterations of processes to improve our Movement direction. Programmatic and project planning will include systematic evaluation as an integral part of the process, as preconditions to adapting to changing environments, and to the improvement of our overall work. Evaluation needs to be incorporated into decision-making at all institutional levels. Planning for adequate resources, skills development, and capacity needs will be necessary to create meaningful evaluation processes. The evaluation processes should occur at and across all levels, to verify whether our work is making progress toward achieving our strategic goals. Evaluation processes should also be adapted to the capabilities of the different communities (i.e. not be time-consuming, easy to put in place, supported by resources). This process ends with the dissemination of knowledge. Any evaluation, iteration, and change must be stored in the knowledge management system, accessible and communicated to the entire Movement, in order to raise awareness, amplify its effects, and help others avoid duplication of efforts. The results from the evaluation must be disseminated and discussed with all involved stakeholders. For example, verifying that an improvement in the registering process / user page creation has increased user retention in a particular language edition must be communicated to the corresponding language community. The results from the evaluation must provide the necessary data to understand the context and elements involved in the system or part of the system examined[3]. Including the people who may benefit from the change that is evaluated, whether it is the current community, new participants, or other groups of users, allows what was learned to be better understood with potentially greater impact within other projects who can learn from and adapt the results[4]. Every evaluation must be adapted to achieve its intended goals. |
Evaluación:[5]
- Establecer criterios claros de evaluación basados en nuestros objetivos: impacto, experiencia de usuario inclusiva, centrado en las personas y equidad para facilitar la planificación y la toma de decisiones en todos los niveles para nuestro crecimiento y sostenibilidad. [6]
- Establecer mecanismos para clarificar las responsabilidades mútuas de cualquier parte interesada dentro del Movimiento Wikimedia.[7]
Iteración:
- Monitorizar los progresos en la aplicación de la equidad en el Movimiento evaluando la diversidad[4] y la inclusión de los recién llegados[8] como elementos fundamentales de la participación en el Movimiento.
- Evaluar los cambios estratégicos para asegurarse de que tanto las comunidades actuales como la diversidad de perfiles futura se tengan siempre en cuenta a la hora de aplicar las recomendaciones estratégicas.[9]
- Proporcionar una evaluación con recursos y expertos en cualquier área determinada.
- Desarrollar un sistema de evaluación integral para la creación de capacidades, a fin de que las partes interesadas puedan comprender y valorar sus progresos y se sientan respaldadas en su inclusión.[10]
- Iterar procesos que propongan cambios en la tecnología, políticas y sistemas de gobernanza para promover la validación a través de estudios y experimentos.[4]
Adaptabilidad:
- Adoptar políticas y procedimientos basados en evaluaciones del mundo cambiante y del Movimiento cambiante para hacer frente a situaciones y desafíos nuevos y alterados. [11]
- Aumentar la flexibilidad y la adaptabilidad de las estructuras y los enfoques que desarrollamos.
- Planificar, presupuestar e invertir en estudios para hacer los ajustes necesarios para las mejoras, las innovaciones y el impacto. [4]
