Subject: Update About WMF UCoC
To:
Hello,
We want to update Wikimedia movement affiliates on the progress of the
Universal Code of Conduct, one of the recommendations of the Movement
Strategy process that many of you are familiar with. The UCoC draft of a
“binding minimum set of standards across all Wikimedia projects" was
developed by volunteers, affiliate staff, …
[View More]and Foundation staff in 2020. As
you may have seen announced earlier this week, the draft was approved by
the Board of Trustees on February 2, covers policies for in-person and
virtual events, technical spaces, and all Wikimedia projects and wikis.
The implementation and enforcement of the UCoC requires the continuous
cooperation of international communities to define clear definitions of
enforcement pathways and processes. This needs to be done in a way that
does not contradict with the internal bylaws and codes of conduct currently
in place, but rather to support them and complement their deficiencies, if
any.
We invite you to play an active role in bringing about this change; this is
a common goal that cannot be done by one or a few parties. The change is
global, and will affect all participants of the Wikimedia movement,
individuals and communities. We need to hear your voices, to learn from
your experiences and benefit from your ideas for solutions.
We will reach out to you over the month of March to discuss your thoughts
and concerns about the enforcement of the UCoC. Please look forward to
hearing from us soon!
