both a report and as the anonymized data by October 6. The publication of
those materials will be shared on the project hub and announced here.

Subject: [Wikimedia-l] Resolution to pause Movement Brand Project through
March 2021
Hi everyone,
The Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees, following the recommendation
of
staff, has resolved to pause the Movement Brand
Project until the next
calendar year.[1] We recognize that much of the Wikimedia movement’s
activities, events, and key collaborations have been put on hold or
restructured due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and we have received formal
requests to pause Movement Brand Project activities to reflect this
need.[2]
The Board remains persuaded that there is potential value in making
change
to our branding system in service of our goals of
engaging more people in
our mission. However, we also know that change moves at the speed of
trust.
We have asked staff to meaningfully engage with
community concerns and
address the request for equitable decision-making within the process. We
also ask members of the community to use this pause to consider how
equity
may ask us to let go of some aspects of our past,
in order to create
space
for what could be. Making these decisions
together, with so many
passionate
perspectives, will be challenging, but building
this capacity is
essential
for how we grow together as a thriving global
movement.
In the meantime, we will establish a small ad-hoc Board committee to
liaise
with staff, and develop a process of
collaboration and decision-making
appropriate for the Movement’s brand. This committee will constitute
Trustees James Heilman, Raju Narisetti, and Shani Evenstein Sigalov. We
hope and intend for this committee to include a small number of community
representatives from affiliates, open letter signatories, and emerging
communities, and Foundation staff to be designated by the Executive
Director. We’ll update you with more details on the committee soon.
In 2021, using insights and recommendations gleaned through the ad-hoc
committee, the Brand Project team will restart collaboration and
communicate next steps accordingly. This resolution was ratified on
September 24, 2020.
Kind regards,
María Sefidari
