Strategic Wikimedia Affiliates Network

Strategic flock of Wikimedians heading in a new direction.

The Strategic Wikimedia Affiliates Network (SWAN) is a developing forum for all Wikimedia movement affiliates to share ideas on the Wikimedia 2030 strategy process. It expands on the model of the All-Affiliates Brand Meeting to help lay some of the groundwork for a future Global Council.

The September SWAN meeting will be held in two sessions on Sunday September 20 (Saturday evening for North/South America), following up on the August SWAN meeting and June's All-Affiliates Brand Meeting.
