| Abstract:
In this moment of profound global transformation, the Wikimedia Movement faces challenges to the relevance and resilience of our projects. We need to deepen our understanding of how the world and internet are changing around us, how these changes are impacting our people and projects, and develop joint responses that support our shared mission for free knowledge. Wikimedians have already begun discussing global trends that impact our communities and projects, from declining trust in online information, to the rise of AI-generated content, shifting regulatory landscapes, and more. This session invites participants to examine global trends through a local lens. We’ll focus on how these broader developments are affecting communities in the CEE region in particular. The specific trend we are going to present and discuss will be decided upon prior to the event. Guiding questions may include:
