Dear Wikimedia friends and partners,
We have just published our FDC progress report for the first half of 2015. It’s a quite lengthy document, so I would like to highlight some shared learning for the Free Knowledge movement that we present in this report.

We have published several learning patterns and material, for example on participation in post-conference surveys, crowd-funding campaign, recording audio samples, relationships with donors, and sharing information with the movement:

The grant report for the Wikimedia Conference 2015 includes a lot of lessons learnt that can also be applied to other movement events:

The committee that was tasked with the transition of our Executive Director reported on their process and provides advice for similar processes in other organisations, no matter if big or small:
