The board of Wikimedia Israel, on behalf of the Wikimedia Israel chapter, wish to express its support and endorse the strategic direction, drafted by the movement’s strategic team.

The board read, discussed and decided unanimously to endorse the strategic direction and to express its gratitude for the movement's efforts so far.

WMIL was proud to take part in this process. We hosted several board & community meetings to discuss the different topics raised by the strategic team in each phase. We also hosted a salon strategy dinner [1] with a group of experts from the communication, education and high-tech industries.

We found these meetings not only a contribution to the strategic process but also as a great opportunity for our members to share and listen to their friends’ ideas and visions for our movement. It was super important and interesting to listen and learn from experts outside of our movement and we will look forward to hosting these kinds of meetings and working groups outside of the current strategy process as part of our yearly work.

We wish to thanks the whole team involved with leading this process so far and we look forward to working together on the next phase of this discussion.

Thank you!
