Content Partnerships Hub

Welcome to the Content Partnerships Hub!

The Content Partnerships Hub is a Wikimedia hub, for affiliates and volunteers who are interested in working with partners across the world to make content freely available on the Wikimedia platforms. The Wikimedia Strategic Direction establishes that by 2030 “Wikimedia will become the essential infrastructure of the ecosystem of free knowledge.” But our movement cannot succeed in isolation. We need to work with friends, movements, existing and potential partners across the globe, if we want to make the Wikimedia platforms the obvious choice for making knowledge free and available.

The Content Partnerships Hub aims to improve the Wikimedia movement’s work with content partners, such as GLAM institutions, research organisations or UN agencies, by providing new services, missing infrastructure and support coordination efforts. Exactly what this work will entail will be decided in an inclusive way together with the stakeholders in the Wikimedia movement.

In early 2026, the Content Partnerships Hub entered a new pilot phase, made possible through a Wikimedia Foundation Hub Grant. This support enables the initiative to consolidate its foundations, refine its scope, and strengthen its capacity to serve Wikimedia affiliates and partners across the movement. This relaunch also means the reorganization and growth of the Hub's current programs, including Helpdesk, Capacity building, and International partnerships.

The initiative is based on the Wikimedia 2030 Movement Strategy Recommendations. In close collaboration with volunteers and Wikimedia organisations from across the world, we want to experiment on what a thematic hub within the Wikimedia movement could look like, and what the tasks could include.
