Hi,

I find a human rights policy based on major human rights documents of the world very conflicting and equally amusing in an organization which grows itself in an inherently exploitative system feeding on volunteer works. While volunteers from around the world, who generate contents and technologies every day, build partnerships to gather more human knowledge, man different committees to make important decisions for the movement and so on and without whom the Wikimedia movement would not exist at all, are not remunerated in any way, forget ensuring minimum wage for their time and effort or social protection, medical care etc. and the organization which collects weath based on these people's works talk about Universal Declaration of Human Rights whose Articles 23 and 25 say about right to just and favorable remuneration, social protection, equal pay for equal work etc. I would be very interested to see if this policy, mentioned as North Star, can guide the movement addressing the conflicting and complicated issue w.r.t. human rights in the future.

Regards,
