- WK? Whose Knowledge?
Wikimedia Colombia is the local chapter of the Wikimedia Foundation in Colombia, that aims for the diffusion and development of initiatives that support free knowledge in the country.
Objectives
[edit]- Encourage the Colombian population to use initiatives and projects that in one way or another allow the free use and distribution of knowledge, both for consultation and for the publication of content.
- Promote the development of projects for the dissemination of free knowledge, with special emphasis on proposals aimed at Colombians and those developed in the country's indigenous languages.
- Fundraising financial resources through the legal means available, including the sale of products and services and the receipt of donations.
- Catalogue and summarise legislation on copyright and copyrights in Colombia, particularly with regard to the definition of free content or free knowledge. It also includes any international legislation that may, in one way or another, affect the development of projects for the dissemination of free knowledge.
- Promote the use and appropriation of free knowledge in educational or socio-cultural areas through technological or traditional initiatives.

- WMCO strengthens the autonomy of the communities and actors with whom it relates by co-constructing situated proposals where we recognise each other as peers.
- WMCO promotes the construction of free culture through the social appropriation of knowledge.
- Wikimedia Colombia promotes multiculturalism and diversity, promoting the wellbeing, equity and decentralisation of the communities that participate in its consolidation and sustainability.
- WMCO internally promotes informed governance and participatory, transparent, supportive and responsible decision-making.
- WMCO recognises and addresses gaps in the social, technological and governance infrastructure of the Wikimedia movement.
- WMCO promotes respect, inclusion and accessibility as tools to overcome inequity in access, use and management of knowledge.
- Wikimedia Colombia contributes to building multi-stakeholder narratives that allow us to design possible futures for social transformation.
- WMCO will work to increase and amplify the voices of Colombia in Wikimedia projects.
