Chief Global Development Officer


The Wikimedia Foundation's Global Development team exists to provide for focused efforts to build Wikimedia's projects in places we are not yet the ubiquitous knowledge resource that we are in places like Europe, North America and Japan. It resulted from the Wikimedia Strategic Plan that identified the need to attract new editors and readers to our projects in places where we haven't yet gained traction.

Fundraising

The fundraiser is turning into something that educates Wikimedia users about how our projects and movement work. Tens of millions of users click on banners and read the appeals every year. The primary mission of the Wikimedia Foundation fundraising team is now to improve that educational function. Imagine future campaigns that focus on recruiting new editors more than new donors. That's what we're trying to get to.
