A little concerned at the inclusion of:

“

Take immediate action to mitigate IP blockage effects by implementing robust circumvention tools

“

If this is working around governments blocking Wikipedia then I am obviously all for it. If it refers to circumventing on-wiki IP blocks placed by administrators then that is a different matter. We shouldn’t have affiliates actively encouraging block evasion…

Dear all

I wanted to share with you the  Global Majority Wikimedia Tech Priorities, which have been created as a way of investigating Wikimedia's technological infrastructure and its associated challenges through the perspectives of Global South communities. The project was facilitated by Wiki Movimento Brasil and CIS-A2K (India), with the participation of nine other Global Majority affiliates with tech capacity; and I am circulating this on their behalf. 

The communities involved are hoping to receive support from individual contributors and Wikimedia organisations. They will be gathering signatures until Thursday 2nd May, after which they are planning to launch the Priorities at the upcoming Wikimedia Hackathon in Estonia. If this is something you can support, details of how to sign are at the bottom of the page on Meta.

Best wishes

Lucy
