Sebagai bagian dari perencanaan Wikimedia Foundation dalam mendukung Strategi Gerakan, departemen Komunikasi melaksanakan penelitian dalam bidang merek Wikimedia.
The goal is to understand the wide system of Wikimedia project brands (names, logos, perceptions) in 2018, and examine what could be improved to support Wikimedia 2030. The outcomes of this research project are a "brand report" and a “brand strategy.” In 2019, the Foundation's Communications department is sharing the project's outcomes (research and strategy) for review with Wikimedia community members. Our goal is to collect feedback from more than 80% of affiliates and as many individual contributors as possible before developing next steps including any Wikimedia brand changes. This Community Review will run from February to May 2019.

Strategic partner
To support our work on brand research & strategy, we are working with an organization called Wolff Olins. Wolff Olins specializes in brand research, positioning, strategic development, messaging, and design. They will guide the overall work for this project, organizing and completing key original research, workshops, positioning, and messaging guidelines.
We chose to work with Wolff Olins due to their considerable expertise in working with human-focused non-profit brands including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City and Amnesty International. Their proposal for this project fit our needs for original inquiry, strategic planning, and new international growth better than all other prospective partners. We are thrilled to be working with them.
