Wonderful news! Brazil has been for long one of the world leaders in Wikimedia educational projects, with an excellent work on GLAMs, often in line with the educational projects, and generally with full Wikidata integration. It is very rewarding to see the group recognized again as a full-right Wikimedia affiliate. It also happens to be the only other Portuguese speaking affiliate, besides Wikimedia Portugal. Still a long way to go for one of the most spoken native languages in the globe, but that's a great improvement.
Best, Paulo
