Strategy/Wikimedia movement/2017/Cycle 2/A Truly Global Movement/da
By 2030, we will be a truly global movement. In particular, we will turn our attention toward regions we have not yet served well enough: Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America. We will work with communities of readers, contributors, and partners in these parts of the world. We will make space for new forms of contributions that reflect these regions (references, citations, and more). We will build awareness of the power of free knowledge and overcome barriers to access. We will build products adapted to the needs of these new members of our movement.
Cycle 2 of the discussion is now closed. Please discuss the draft strategic direction (link coming soon).

- Five takeaways
- Awareness: as a brand, Wikipedia is not widely recognized or understood. People are Wikipedia readers without realizing it.
- Usage: Wikipedia readers are generally task-oriented, not exploration-oriented.
- Trust: Wikipedia’s content model can arouse suspicion. Despite this, there was no observed relationship between trust in and reading of Wikipedia.
- Affordability: Cost of mobile data remains a barrier to widespread internet penetration.
- Offline: People are increasingly getting information online, then consuming or sharing it offline.
