Wikimedia chapters

Wikimedia chapters are independent organizations officially affiliated with Wikimedia, the nonprofit behind projects like Wikipedia. They operate in specific countries or regions, promoting awareness, education, and contribution to Wikimedia content. These chapters support local volunteer communities, organize events, raise funds, and advocate for open knowledge. While they collaborate with Wikimedia Foundation, they have their own governance and initiatives tailored to their communities. In essence, Wikimedia chapters act as regional partners that help grow and sustain free knowledge sharing at a local level, ensuring diverse voices and cultures are represented within Wikimedia projects.
