Dear Nicole,
The Italian-speaking community is organizing the itwikicon on September 30th - October 2nd
2022
It would be wonderful if the Wikimedia Summit can be planned in a different week.
Thanks and my very best regards
iolanda

Hi everyone,
We have some good and some bad news for you. First, the bad news:
Wikimedia Deutschland will not host the Wikimedia Summit in April
2022. We believe that the global pandemic will not allow for safe and
equitable travel for participants, especially from regions outside of
Europe and North America.
The good news is twofold:
We will not cancel but postpone the Summit, and are currently aiming
for the second half of the year, around September 2022. We will
continue working with the Wikimedia Foundation on the next steps and
keep you all updated about the situation. We surely look very much
forward to welcoming many of you to Berlin in the not too distant
future.
On top of that, we are in conversations with the Movement Strategy and
Governance team at the Wikimedia Foundation about the possibility to
use the originally blocked dates (1-3 April 2022) for a working
meeting of the Movement Charter Drafting Committee in Berlin. This
meeting could be complemented by some online auditoria, additional
hybrid sessions, where the committee could collect insights and
feedback from across the movement.
There is really not more to share about this right now, but we wanted
to make sure to provide an early update on what we are currently
thinking and talking about. More information will be shared in the
coming weeks and months, so please stay tuned.
All the best
Nicole
