In the first semester of 2026, Wikimedia Brasil launched the "Informação Climática na Wiki" campaign with the aim of strengthening the visibility of Wikimedia's contribution to addressing climate misinformation. Under a unified communication strategy, the campaign landing page brought together six previous and ongoing initiatives, including the project developed in partnership with the Climate Justice and Wikimedia Projects Working Group, supported by the Global Fund for Information Integrity on Climate Change. By consolidating scattered content and activities into a communication package, the campaign amplified public awareness of Wikimedia projects as reliable spaces for knowledge sharing, access to trustworthy information, and collective action on climate challenges.[1][2]

The campaign aligns with WMB's third strategic axis by using communication strategies to increase the visibility of Wikimedia's role in promoting digital literacy, information integrity, and open knowledge practices around climate topics. Activities included the production of a dedicated wiki resource spanning three pages, creating communication assets and a series of social media publications, to engage thematic communities and broader audiences. The initiative reached over 5,000 views across six social media publications, including two videos, contributing to broader recognition of Wikimedia Brasil's work on climate and environmental knowledge. By strengthening public awareness, the campaign also supported the organization's advocacy efforts for the recognition of free knowledge as a public interest resource.[3]
