Internal Communications
Internal Communications seeks to create an engaged and informed staff at the Wikimedia Foundation, increasing the sense of welcoming and belonging in our workplace culture. We aim to ensure that each person in our globally distributed organization has access to the information they need to collaborate and achieve our mission.
