Happy midweek everyone,
Please allow me to draw your attention one more time to the official WMF
Global Advocacy Newsletter - we just published our second edition
<https://mailchi.mp/wikimedia/global-advocacy-newsletter-mar-2024>. Some
highlights include:
* Our thinking around issues like children's rights online
* Updates about the EU Digital Services Act, regulation in France, the
recent US Supreme Court hearings
* A list of upcoming events on our radar.
The newsletter is meant for Wikimedians and external audiences, whereas
this listserv is for information sharing and coordination within the
Wikimedia movement. It is quarterly. We hope it will help our movement
influence stakeholders so they think about how laws and regulations impact
public interest and community-led online spaces, like Wikimedia projects.
Enjoy the read and have a lovely rest of your week,
Ziski

Dear all,
I am thrilled to share news of the launch of the *first issue*
<https://mailchi.mp/wikimedia/global-advocacy-newsletter-nov-2023> of the
new WMF Global Advocacy newsletter. You can sign up to receive future
newsletters at *this link*
<https://mailchi.mp/wikimedia/global-advocacy-policy-newsletter>.
This project is inspired by our desire to share the Wikimedia Foundation's
unique policy perspectives on pressing tech regulation issues with public
audiences, including policymakers, Wikimedians, and free knowledge
advocates. Our goal is to help these interested groups better understand
how we think about the internet and digital rights, and how laws and
regulations can and should be shaped to not only protect public interest
and community-led online spaces, like Wikimedia projects, but also to help
them flourish.
The newsletter will be emailed quarterly. Please feel free to share the subscription
link <https://mailchi.mp/wikimedia/global-advocacy-policy-newsletter> with
your networks.
Happy reading!
Ziski
