Dear community members,
Change is the only constant.
I wanted to take a moment to depart from my usual communications to you, to
share that 30 June 2023 will be my last day at the Wikimedia Foundation.
The Movement Strategy & Governance (MSG) team stands dissolved.
The past two years have been a whirlwind journey & I continue to be amazed
by the persistence, resilience, dedication, and kindness of our collective
South Asian community. I have had the privilege of meeting and knowing many
of you during WikiConference India 2023 and through online meetups.
Although my official role ends here, know that I will continue to remain
your ally and advocate for community development. Let’s keep pushing
boundaries, breaking barriers, and making a difference together.
Best regards,
Chitraparna Sinha

international conferences, namely the Wikimedia Hackathon and EduWiki
