Strategic Wikimedia Affiliates Network

The Strategic Wikimedia Affiliates Network (SWAN) is a developing forum for all Wikimedia movement affiliates to share ideas on the Wikimedia 2030 strategy process. It expands on the model of the All-Affiliates Brand Meeting to help lay some of the groundwork for a future Global Council.

Lightning talk introducing the Strategic Wikimedia Affiliates Network (SWAN) (2 minutes, 45 seconds)

The January SWAN meeting will be held in two sessions on Sunday January 10 (Saturday evening for North/South America), following up on the August, September, October, and November SWAN meetings, and June's All-Affiliates Brand Meeting.

January meeting

We are currently planning for the next meeting on Sunday January 10 (Saturday evening for North/South America) around the Interim Global Council and the Movement Charter. Feel free to add notes and comments for the Interim Global Council and Movement Charter.

To start the exchange of ideas on the IGC early, and to help prepare before the SWAN calls, we have set up and invite everyone to participate at this etherpad. If you like a more interactive way of discussing, we have also made a jamboard. Check here for more details.
