Thank you for informing the global community of this. More importantly, thank you for recognizing that the safety and well-being of the global community should take precedence over a meeting. This is the way to "walk the talk" about community safety.

Dear all,
It’s with regret that we have to inform you that due to the global health situation (COVID-19), the physical meeting of the Wikimedia Summit 2020 and related side events in Berlin have been cancelled.
Since we currently look into hosting the Summit in a series of virtual meetings, starting at the dates of the Summit, please keep the dates blocked in your calendar.
We are aware that this announcement will cause many questions (not only in relation to the Summit). Please be patient, more information will follow from our teams in the next few days.
Best regards,
Abraham Taherivand, Executive Director Wikimedia Deutschland
Katherine Maher, Executive Director Wikimedia Foundation
