Wikimedia Movement Organizations EDs
(Redirected from Wikimedia EDs and Foundation meetings)
The Wikimedia Foundation engages regularly with Wikimedia affiliates and other movement organizations in different ways and through different channels. Starting in 2026, in this page we document our regular meetings with Executive Directors and equivalent roles of these organizations. The purpose of these meetings is to maintain an ongoing conversation with the Wikimedia organizations handling most professional projects and most of the community funds.
Meetings

Organizations invited
[edit]The criteria to join these meetings are:
- The organization must be recognized by the Affiliations Committee or receive grants from the Wikimedia Foundation. This allows us to identify Wikimedia organizations versus more distant partners.
- The organization must have paid staff. This allows us to identify organizations with a significant and regular annual budget.
- The person representing the organization must be in an Executive Director role or equivalent, overseeing all staff. This allows us to identify the top paid role of these organizations.
- Justified exceptions are allowed. We want to be inclusive while keeping the group focused.
This is the list of organizations and their representatives invited to the next meetings. If you see any organization missing or any information outdated, please report it on the Discussion page or to qgil
