Hi everyone!

I'm very happy to announce that the Affiliations Committee has recognized [1] Kurdish Wikimedians User Group [2] as a Wikimedia User Group. The group aims to increase the Kurdish presence on the Wikimedia projects; by helping contributors from all Kurdish Wikimedia projects to organize and collaborate. Also by promoting the use of Kurdish languages and dialects by organizing events both online and in-person. They also want to help the world to get to know more about the Kurds and strengthen their connections by sharing free knowledge.

Please join me in congratulating the members of this new user group!

Regards,
Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight
Chair, Affiliations Committee
