The Wikimedia Foundation Communications department is holding a series of discussions with Wikimedia movement affiliates. These discussions will be followed by a communications survey of all 100+ affiliates. The goal of these efforts is to get a better sense of how the department can worth with affiliates. In this cycle of discussions, a particular focus is being put on collecting information on what communications activities affiliates are engaging in, the Communications Committee, and the Communications Resource Center. Findings will be shared on this page.

Being held with target affiliates, beginning in January 2017, to gather basic information to influence survey questions and initial activities. We believe by conducting these before the survey, we will have a better sense of the types of activities affiliates are engaged in and what information would be most helpful to collect in the survey.
