Dear Wikimedians,
It is our great pleasure to announce that during last weekend’s Board retreat, we voted to appoint Abraham Taherivand as Executive Director of Wikimedia Deutschland with immediate effect.
Abraham has joined Wikimedia Deutschland in 2012, has been the director of our Software Development department, and interim ED in the past two months. In all his roles he has shown vast experience and qualifications as well as the much needed, deep commitment for Free Knowledge. We are convinced that Abraham is the right person at the right time for Wikimedia Deutschland and have great confidence that the management of the office is in good hands with him. Abraham will continue to lead the Software Development department on an interim basis until we have been able to fill this position with a new permanent director.
