Movement strategy working groups are currently undergoing a transition as the process moves from drafting recommendations to synthesizing those recommendations into one coherent set. We are not in an open consultation phase at the moment, but you can review the draft recommendations below. |

Fokus
Fokus
- muligheder og udfordringer i forhold til opbygning af partnerskaber på det lokale, regionale og globale plan;
- strategiske fremgangsmåder til eskalering af det arbejde vi udfører på måder ud over vores egen kapacitet og rækkevidde;
- samarbejde med andre organisationer og bevægelser for at fremme vores vision og værdier;
- og flytte i vores strategiske retning med muligheder for bredere indvirkning.
Rationale
Our vision statement says nothing about Wikimedia being the only entity that brings us closer to our vision. Partnerships are happening on global, regional and local basis, and some of our successes would not have been possible without the critical support from our partners. Partners are crucial to increase our scope, outreach, and impact, and can also be funding partners. Partnerships can also help us focus on our specific field of expertise and avoid duplicating structures in the broader open movement beyond ourselves.
Organizations and groups are lacking the necessary resources and capacities to fully tap into the benefits of working together with others in local, regional and global partnerships. Movement entities also have different approaches to deciding whom to partner with, and how to ensure alignment between our goals and the goals of partners.
There are no established practices of how to best share responsibilities with partners from within and outside of our movement, and how to communicate about partnerships and share experiences. There are no clear means for agreeing to and executing partnerships at a global level. Most of our movement and the majority of our projects were designed around individual contributors, and our technologies and practices do not easily accommodate collaboration or contributions from institutions.
We want to become the essential infrastructure of the ecosystem of free knowledge. How do we then build the capacities to successfully work together with our ecosystem and create the needed impact to collectively change the world, especially in those regions where we are still lacking sustainable partnerships?
Vejledende spørgsmål
These questions are not meant to be answered one-to-one but should help the group frame their own conversations and their consultations with movement stakeholders.
- How do we build our collaborative capacity to be the best and most effective partner?
- What are the specific areas where we need partners to advance in our strategic direction?
- What are the partners we want to work with, and how do we ensure alignment in our goals?
- How do we best share global, local and thematic responsibilities with entities inside and beyond our movement?
- What structural, including technical, changes might we need to make to be more partner-friendly?

Wikimedia Conference Working Group Report (2018)
This is an overview of the outputs from the discussion about Partnerships at the Wikimedia Conference 2018. The group discussed 1. What the scope of this thematic area should be, 2. Who should be in the Working Group, 3. How the Working Group should work.
- Samtalens fokus
One of the core messages from the discussion group was that partnerships on different levels and in different cultures (geographical, organisational, etc.) will have different structures and practices. Given the scope of the movement, the implementation of multi-layered partnership structures might be one of the biggest challenges in the work of the Working Group and the Strategy Process in general.
Hvad? | Hvem? | Hvordan? |
Shared understanding of reasons for partnering and flexible [enough] system of decision making that enables creating partnerships/collaboration/alliances by different actors and on different levels.
