Dear GLAM Community, Happy 2026! We're excited to share that our GLAM Community Calls will be happening on the fourth Tuesday of each month throughout 2026. Mark your calendars for this month's call on January 27 at 13:30 UTC – you can register now on the event page. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Global_GLAM_calls The calls will continue alternating between 8:00 UTC and 13:30 UTC to accommodate community members across different time zones, with ongoing support from the Content Partnerships Hub and the Content Enablement Team at the Wikimedia Foundation. We want to hear from you! We're inviting everyone in the Global GLAM Community to submit your topic requests and proposals. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeX0hCAnZzbUdTLY2ncYBuFj0sn7aTw8Jf… We're building our upcoming agendas around the five strategic pillars that were developed at GLAM Wiki last year, which form the foundation for GLAM activities in 2026 and beyond. By centering these pillars in our calls, we hope to help affiliates and contributors prioritize these themes in their own work and collaborate across time zones, countries, and languages to advance GLAM Wiki activities together. We are also welcoming new hosts for the calls! If you are interested in getting involved as an organizer please use the form above as well. Looking forward to seeing you at the call! All the best, GLAM Community Call Organizers

Comunicação oficial da Wikimedia Brasil sobre o Encontro Hispânico
by João Alexandre Peschanski 30 Jul '25

30 Jul '25

English ⏬ Prezadas e prezados membros dos afiliados da América Latina, Recebam com esta comunicação oficial nossas cordiais saudações em nome da Wikimedia Brasil. Gostaríamos de agradecer pelo convite para participarmos do Encontro Hispânico, a ser realizado em Buenos Aires no segundo semestre. O convite, recebido em 10 de julho de 2025 por meio da Wikimedia Argentina, motivou de imediato uma discussão comunitária em nossa associação. Desde já, desejamos que o evento seja produtivo, inspirador e fortaleça as conexões entre os afiliados participantes. Após cuidadosa reflexão entre membros da comunidade e da direção da Wikimedia Brasil, comunicamos que, neste momento, há outros compromissos em nossa agenda que são mais prioritários para nós e decidimos não participar do encontro. Entendemos que, como nos foi apresentada, esta edição do evento foi pensada especialmente para lideranças formais dos afiliados, como diretores executivos e presidentes, e que, nesse contexto, nos foi oferecida uma participação apenas como observador. Acreditamos que, nessas condições, nossa presença se tornará limitada demais, especialmente diante de possíveis discussões sobre integração regional, nas quais não poderíamos contribuir de maneira plena e equitativa. Desde a Iberoconf de 2023, temos compartilhado com vocês nosso anseio de que encontros regionais garantam a participação efetiva da comunidade brasileira e da Wikimedia Brasil. Sentimos que, em algumas instâncias anteriores de coordenação, especialmente no âmbito da Iberocoop, a participação brasileira não foi adequadamente integrada, marginalizando e excluindo nossa perspectiva sem justificativa. Notamos com surpresa que alguns desses pontos foram levantados na própria discussão do pedido de financiamento e, mesmo assim, o encontro foi mantido. Notamos ainda com surpresa que a construção desse encontro parece alheia aos encaminhamentos da pesquisa sobre integração regional recentemente levada a cabo por Wikimedistas de Uruguay e que, acreditamos, deveria ter orientado esse processo. Reiteramos nossa disposição para contribuir na construção de um novo espaço de colaboração regional, com uma governança atualizada de acordo com a nova realidade regional, que seja portanto mais aberto, transparente, inclusivo e sensível à diversidade linguística e cultural das Américas. Seguimos comprometidos com o fortalecimento do Movimento Wikimedia na região, e, por isso, gostaríamos de sugerir que futuros encontros considerem modelos como o do Encontro de Huaraz, no Peru, que se destacou por seu caráter comunitário e plural, além de garantirem antecedência e clareza na definição de pautas e mecanismos de deliberação com um compromisso claro com o multilinguismo. Reafirmamos nossa disposição em cocriar espaços comuns de diálogo, aprendizado e colaboração, assim como temos feito em iniciativas bem-sucedidas junto a diversos afiliados da região, por exemplo na troca de experiências entre equipes e em sessões de coordenação entre diretores executivos, e em eventos como a GLAMWikiCon no Uruguai e a EduWikiCon na Colômbia, que foram marcos positivos de integração. Desejamos muito sucesso ao Encontro Hispânico e esperamos ter a oportunidade de participar com equidade e efetividade em encontros futuros. Com apreço e estima, Érica Azzellini e João Alexandre Peschanski em nome da Wikimedia Brasil _____ Dear members of the Latin American affiliates, Please receive our warm greetings in this official communication on behalf of Wikimedia Brasil. We would like to thank you for the invitation to participate in the Hispanic Meeting, to be held in Buenos Aires in the second half of the year. The invitation, received on July 10, 2025, through Wikimedia Argentina, immediately sparked a community discussion within our association. From the outset, we wish the event to be productive, inspiring, and a space to strengthen connections among participating affiliates. After careful reflection among members of the Wikimedia Brasil community and its leadership, we have decided not to attend the meeting on this occasion. As presented to us, this edition of the event appears to be designed especially for the formal leadership of affiliates, such as executive directors and board presidents. In this context, we were offered a role as observers only. We believe that under such conditions, our presence would be too limited, particularly in the face of potential discussions around regional integration, where we would not be able to contribute fully and equitably. Since Iberoconf 2023, we have been expressing our desire that regional meetings ensure the effective participation of the Brazilian community and of Wikimedia Brasil. We feel that, in certain prior coordination spaces, particularly within the Iberocoop framework, Brazilian participation has not been adequately integrated, marginalizing and excluding our perspective without justification. We were surprised to see that some of these issues were raised during the discussion of the event's grant request and, despite that, the meeting was carried forward. We were also surprised to note that the organization of this meeting seems to be disconnected from the recommendations of the recent regional integration research led by Wikimedistas de Uruguay, which we believe should have informed the planning process. We would like to reiterate our willingness to contribute to the construction of a new space for regional collaboration, with governance that reflects our region’s current realities, one that is more open, transparent, inclusive, and attentive to the linguistic and cultural diversity of the Americas. We remain committed to strengthening the Wikimedia Movement in the region. In that spirit, we suggest that future gatherings take inspiration from models such as the Huaraz Meeting in Peru, which stood out for its truly community-centered and pluralistic nature. We also recommend ensuring sufficient advance notice and clarity in setting agendas and deliberative mechanisms, with a clear commitment to multilingualism. We reaffirm our commitment to co-creating shared spaces for dialogue, learning, and collaboration, as we have done in successful initiatives with several affiliates in the region, such as the exchange of experiences between affiliate teams, executive coordination sessions, and events like the GLAMWikiCon in Uruguay and the EduWikiCon in Colombia, which were positive milestones of regional integration. We wish the Hispanic Meeting much success and hope to have the opportunity to participate with equity and effectiveness in future gatherings.

GLAM Affiliate Survey
by seehbe＠gmail.com 17 Apr '25

17 Apr '25

Hello :) *(survey incoming, apologies for the cross posting)* The global GLAM community is buzzing with activity! Across the world, there are meetings, campaigns, and projects all working to connect culture and heritage with Wikimedia initiatives. Earlier this year, the GLOSS working group was formed to explore what kind of GLAM structure would best serve the community at this point, and what needs it should address. This working group builds on years of progress—especially the recent momentum—to further embed the GLAM community within our movement. As mentioned during last week’s Global Call, the working group is now launching a needs assessment survey. Its purpose is to better understand the global community and, ultimately, help shape a new approach that supports GLAM activities around the world. You can learn more about the GLOSS working group on the Meta page https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM/GLOSS Most importantly, if you have thoughts on what a centralized GLAM structure could look like—what needs it should meet, how it could support your work and contribute to the broader movement—please take 5 minutes to fill out the survey! *Deadline 12 May!* *https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM/GLOSS/Survey <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM/GLOSS/Survey>* And feel free to spread the word! Share it with your local chapter, other affiliates, or directly with fellow editors and volunteers. The survey is already available in 4 languages. You can translate the survey meta page, and we will update the survey with your translation! Best, GLOSS Working Group!

New governing bodies of Wikimedia Portugal
by André Barbosa 01 Apr '25

01 Apr '25

Dear fellow Wikimedians, On Saturday, March 22, Wikimedia Portugal held its 23th General Assembly in Porto, again in a hybrid format. During this General Assembly, new governing structures were elected, using the bylaws approved in January this year, now allowing more than 3 board members. As such, I’m very happy to announce that the previous team continues, with wonderful auditions! Joining the board we have Alice Santiago Faria, an academic researcher and wikimedian, and one of the most important persons in the academic implementation of Wikimedia Portugal over the past years. The second board addition is Ana Afonso, a Mirandese language and culture teacher and activist. Ana got to know Wikimedia value in the protection of minority languages in Porto Meeting 2023, and since then has working with us. I’m also please to announce that Manuel Anastácio, a founding member of Wikimedia Portugal, joined the Fiscal Council. We value his tremendous experience, which is more important now that so many new elements are joining. For the General Assembly Secretariat, we now have Gabriel de Jesus, an East-Timor researcher, and the developer of several tools in Tétum - a search engine, an AI Chatbot, or a Tétum mono lingual dataset. He is the author of the first Tétum phonemes on Wikidata using Lingualibre. Before presenting the list,I must say a huge thanks to all the team that continues, and the supportive community. It’s a wonderful group of diverse people, who even in the most difficult times remained calm, and thought as a community and for the interest of the community. The full list can be found in https://w.wiki/DYTq Board of Directors President: André Barbosa Vice President: Gonçalo Themudo Secretary: Alice Santiago Faria Board Member: Miguel Correia Board Member: Ana Afonso Supervisory Board President: Waldir Pimenta Secretary: Jorge Gomes Board Member: Manuel Anastácio General Assembly Board President: Manuel de Sousa Secretary: Gabriel de Jesus Board Member: Danielly Campos Dias Kind regards,
