Wikimedia Foundation Joins the World Wide Web Consortium

We’re excited to announce that we’ve become a member of the W3C, the main international standards organization for the World Wide Web. Joining the W3C fits right into our 2030 strategy, which calls on the Wikimedia movement to “become the essential infrastructure of the ecosystem of free knowledge, and [ensure that] anyone who shares our vision will be able to join us.” The underlying technologies and standards of the web are a core part of the infrastructure that can facilitate knowledge equity, and so to achieve our vision, we need to participate and collaborate in designing the future of the web.
