From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki
This document presents the proposed budget for Foto.wiki.br's activities spanning from June 2025 to July 2026 (fiscal year). This budget has been developed to support our core mission of promoting free knowledge through photography and videography, with a strong emphasis on collaboration with the Wikimedia movement and the Brazilian community. The budget is designed to be flexible and adaptable, allowing for adjustments based on funding availability, project needs, and unforeseen circumstances.
2. Key Assumptions: [ edit ] Operational Model: Foto.wiki.br operates primarily with a remote team, minimizing overhead costs.Location: While the team is remote, activities are assumed to be primarily focused on a major Brazilian metropolitan area, which impacts costs like consultant fees and travel.Currency: The primary currency is Brazilian Reais (BRL). A US Dollar (USD) conversion is provided for informational purposes, using an exchange rate of 1 USD = 6.042905 BRL. This is for budgetary planning only; actual exchange rates will vary. 3.
