This session will showcase our work on developing a shared vocabulary to ensure coherence in explaining the Wikimedia project model. Led by the Wikimedia Movement Advocacy Network, we aim to strengthen how we communicate Wikimedia’s value to policymakers, editors, and the public. We focus on terms used in policy discussions that help frame Wikimedia projects as digital public goods, emphasize their commons-based governance, and highlight their role in public digital infrastructure. The panel will feature members of the advocacy network, a representative from the Digital Public Goods Alliance, and a Latin American expert in commons governance. Together, they will explore how this framing can inform advocacy, policy, and community engagement. The recent recognition of Wikipedia as a digital public good adds momentum to this participatory conversation, which invites insights and reflections from across the Wikimedia Movement.

The roundtable "Decolonising Knowledge on Wikipedia" aims to contribute to inclusivity in the Wikimedia projects by interrogating our practices, structures, and sources and critically highlighting power dynamics. This roundtable involves current Wikimedia projects and initiatives already focusing on decolonising knowledge, it triggers a broader discussion and collects experiences, examples and recommendations to expand and scale those practices.

Climate change and the environment have been topics of impact around which Wikimedia communities have developed interesting campaigns, projects, and partnerships in recent years. Within this framework, the Working Group on Climate Justice and Wikimedia Projects in Latin America, in collaboration with UNEP and the Wikimedia Foundation, is proposing a side event ahead of Wikimania to explore how the Wikimedia Movement can contribute to international efforts aimed at promoting climate change information integrity.

This panel will serve as a space to share the key discussions that will take place during the side event, as well as to invite strategic allies to exchange reflections and ideas for future collaboration—particularly from a South-South cooperation perspective.
