;Navigating the event with trust and safety

[[File:Introduction speech by Nicole Ebber and Maiken Hagemeister, WMDE, Wikimedia Summit 2022.webm|thumb|Introduction speech by Nicole Ebber and Maiken Hagemeister (video, click to watch)]]Maiken and Nicole welcomed participants and shared their commitment for creating a hybrid space where everyone can work safely, and effectively. They gave directions on how to manage image privacy and COVID safety measures in the Summit’s venue. They also reminded participants of the Universal Code of Conduct for all Wikimedia activities.

{{quote|“This is a new beginning for all of us. A chance to weave new threads into the fabric that connects us.”}}[[File:Opening speech of Franziska Heine and Christian Humborg, WMDE, Wikimedia Summit 2022.webm|thumb|Opening speech of Franziska Heine and Christian Humborg (video, click to watch)]]Franziska Heine expressed her joy for meeting everyone online and on site. She recalled the changes that happened in the World since she was a participant in the 2019’s Summit, where she was a member of the Product and Technology working group. Today, she expresses her pride in opening the Summit as Executive Director of Wikimedia Deutschland. She concluded with a message of support. “The threads that connect us got thinner, and we  lost sight of each other in our shared work. This is a new beginning for all of us. A chance to weave new threads into the fabric that connects us.”
{{quote|“It is our duty to provide knowledge as a service. We need the knowledge of all humankind.”}}
Christian Humborg highlighted the importance of knowledge equity. He gave the example of how the German government controlled access to patents and copyright of the COVID vaccines that could have saved the lives of many people. He underlined that knowledge can be tool of power over others —as are the examples of the recent war in Ukraine or the role of social media in the Rohingya genocide. He encouraged all of the Summit participants to continue their work as a service to humankind, quoting the article 19 of the Charter of Human Rights, the right to freedom of opinion and expression

Using puzzles as a metaphor for “things we solve together”, Maryana highlighted some of the critical questions that must be answered by the movement. A self-confessed elephant lover, Maryana used some trivia about these magnificent animals to offer participants some advice on how to address some of the “elephants in the room” they might encounter in their conversations during the Summit.

;The role of the Summit in the Wikimedia Movement Strategy

{{quote|“Building the Movement together!”}}[[File:Introduction speech of Kaarel Vaidla, Wikimedia Summit 2022.webm|thumb|Introduction speech of Kaarel Vaidla (video, click to watch)]]Kaarel Vaidla introduced himself as a “movement strategy enthusiast”. He shared a personal story from when he attended his first international event. “A story from when I was young and hopeful”—he said. He described the engagement and collaborative spirit that characterised the event, which for him represented the foundation of the Wikimedia Movement Strategy and the Wikimedia Summit. 
Kaarel also gave a recap of the Movement Strategy development process, emphasising: “We agreed that by 2030 we will become the essential infrastructure of the ecosystem of free knowledge, and anyone who shares our vision will be able to join us. The Movement Strategy and the recommendations are how we get there”.
Kaarel concluded by explaining the logic of the 3-day programme: 1st day is dedicated to connection, 2nd day is dedicated to changing the system, and the 3rd day, dedicated to making commitments to action: How can we use this catalysing event to infuse in our everyday work?

;Documenting Movement Strategy activities
Hanan highlighted the need for tracking information about activities that contribute to implementing the Movement Strategy, and collaboration between Wikimedia affiliates. She defined “collaboration” broadly, from sharing and learning to co-producing.
The hope is that by increasing visibility of what is happening, everyone can work more and better together.
Below are the links to the tool (Baserow) that will be used to document activities and collaborations contributing to the Movement Strategy implementation. 
The input form is a simple way to submit and categorise activities. The database enables you to view and filter all submitted activities, and start identifying opportunities for collaboration. You can also download a short guide on how to use the software.
