Knowledge Equity
Back in 2017, the Wikimedia Movement agreed on its Strategic Direction until 2030, with its core goal to be the essential infrastructure of the ecosystem of free knowledge.[1] One priority to achieve this goal is called Knowledge Equity (As a social movement, we will focus our efforts on the knowledge and communities that have been left out by structures of power and privilege. We will welcome people from every background to build strong and diverse communities. We will break down the social, political, and technical barriers preventing people from accessing and contributing to free knowledge.). But what does that mean in our context? What are others already doing to translate “Knowledge Equity” from the strategic to the programmatic level?

Imagine a world in which every single human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge. That's our commitment. |
