Dear all,
The policy team at WMF is very proud to announce the approval of the Human Rights Policy by the Board of Trustees on 8 December 2021. The full policy as well as some FAQs about it are available to read via this link: https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Policy:Human_Rights_Policy#Frequently_...
For more information about the policy and what it means for the Wikimedia Foundation’s work in the coming years, you can check out our blog post on Diff: https://diff.wikimedia.org/2021/12/09/what-the-wikimedia-foundations-new-hum...
We invite you to join representatives of the Foundation’s Global Advocacy and Human Rights teams here for a conversation hour tomorrow, 10th December, at 10:00 AM ET (15:00 UTC) to address any immediate concerns, questions, or suggestions regarding this policy or how it will be implemented. Please use this link to join: http://meet.google.com/wio-vdkw-phd
The session will be recorded for later viewing and you may submit questions by email to myself (fputz(a)wikimedia.org) or Ricky Gaines (rgaines(a)wikimedia.org) ahead of or following the conversation hour. Additional conversation hours on this policy will be made available in the coming weeks.
All the best,
Ziski Putz
