'''Giving Wikimedia's volunteers the best possible tools to do their work.''' The core technology that makes Wikipedia and its sister projects possible, the wiki, was invented in 1995. Things have changed quite a bit since then. Wikimedia projects run on an open source wiki software called MediaWiki, which we develop and improve. Our goal is to make it as easy as possible to contribute knowledge, and to give volunteers and readers great tools for assessing and improving article quality. In some areas, we lead and innovate. At minimum, we must keep up with key trends in the ever-changing web we're part of. Because our software is open source, everyone can use and improve it.

'''Developing recruiting resources for new volunteers.''' Wikimedia is made of people. To grow our global community, we need to excite people about the prospect of being part of it – and help them with their first steps. To this end, we develop and maintain a library of outreach resources, such as videos and screencasts, but also printed "how-tos" and other more targeted resources (for teachers, librarians, students, and others). See the [[outreach:Bookshelf|bookshelf of outreach resources]].

'''Staging outreach and community events world-wide.''' Once a year, hundreds of Wikimedia volunteers come together at [http://wikimania.wikimedia.org/ Wikimania], in a different location around the world each year. (You should come! In Summer 2012 [http://wikimania2012.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page Wikimania will be in Washington DC, USA].) And, Wikimedia's chapter organizations have staged dozens of additional events, competitions and conferences around the world. Some are targeted at recruiting new volunteers; some give the community space to think about its work, and to do it. Recognizing the value of people coming together because they are passionate about Wikimedia's mission has been key to our success.

Galleries, libraries, archives, and museums protect and make available the world's history, culture and knowledge. Their mission is to serve and inform the public, just like Wikimedia's. We've successfully partnered with cultural institutions around the world – not just in working with them to make digital reproductions available for free, but also in improving Wikipedia articles and other content related to their collections and archives. Wikimedia chapters are playing a lead role in organizing conferences and meetings targeting the cultural sector, and executing partnerships.

| [[File:IndianaPPIclass.jpg|300px]] || '''Working with the educational sector.''' In the age of the open web, there's the potential for student projects to be more than just exercises. Pioneering professors have long assigned Wikipedia writing as coursework to their students. Everybody wins: students get an audience for their work, teachers successfully motivate their students, and readers get better articles. Wikimedia chapters have also reached out to schools to develop media literacy and to promote responsible use of Wikipedia in the classroom.

'''Providing access to Wikipedia everywhere.''' The next billion people to discover the web will do it using mobile phones, some without ever having touched a laptop. We need to make sure that our sites and services work both on modern smartphones and (to the extent it's possible) on lower-end devices. Our current mobile version is a start and we'll continue to improve it (including moving beyond the read-only experience). And for people with no or intermittent Internet access, we're supporting copies of Wikipedia that can be used completely offline, including projects like [http://thewikireader.com/ the WikiReader], offline readers for desktops and smartphones, and printed versions of Wikimedia content.

'''Informing our decision-making with facts and data.''' Analytics, research, experiments and forecasts are essential to make good decisions in a complex environment like Wikimedia. The [http://stats.wikimedia.org/reportcard/ Wikimedia Foundation Report Card] and the [http://stats.wikimedia.org/ Statistics Portal] provide a wealth of up-to-date analysis which helps us understand the impact of our work. The [[strategy:Main Page|Strategy Wiki]] is a public planning space where longer term trends are analyzed. [[m:Research/Projects|Research projects]] provide us with in-depth analysis and experiments, supported by the volunteer-driven [[m:Research Committee|Research Committee]]. We're data nerds – what else would you expect from the kinds of people who love working on an online encyclopedia?
