Wonderful news!
Brazil has been for long one of the world leaders in Wikimedia educational
projects, with an excellent work on GLAMs, often in line with the
educational projects, and generally with full Wikidata integration.
It is very rewarding to see the group recognized again as a full-right
Wikimedia affiliate.
It also happens to be the only other Portuguese speaking affiliate, besides
Wikimedia Portugal. Still a long way to go for one of the most spoken
native languages in the globe, but that's a great improvement.
Best,
Paulo
