Strategy/Wikimedia movement/2017/Cycle 1

Step 1: Learn more before you begin

 

  This document provides an initial overview of potential topics that may come up across various strategy conversations in terms of our movement and the future. It will be updated and improved as better information emerges from research and discussions. Here you can learn more about:

  • Upcoming trends on population, education, and technology
  • Our movement and ecosystem: who we are today
  • How we are evolving as a movement (trends in contribution, content, and readership)

Step 2: Discuss our future

Our goal as a movement is to identify a direction that aligns and inspires us all on our path to 2030. It will help us better organize and prioritize our activities across the movement, and it will be flexible enough that it applies broadly over time.

What do we want to build or achieve together over the next 15 years?

Next steps: Synthesis and cycles of discussion
