Association

About

Origin

The Asia-Pacific Open Knowledge Association is a register civil association in Taiwan. It's funded for being the legal organization of Wikipedia Asian Month User Group in 2024.

The association is being established for three primary reasons: to organize international event-Wikipedia Asian Month Campaign, to ensure financial independence and to create a clear distinction from Wikimedia Taiwan. There are two boards in the association. One is Taiwan Board, another is International Steering Committee. Taiwan Board will handle the formulation of annual accounts, budgets, and organizational, also rules for the International Steering Committee. Although Taiwan Board will respect the recommendations of the International Steering Committee on work plans, it will retain veto power.

About the name of the association

The decision not to name the association "Asian Month Association" stems from the intention to potentially support other Wikimedia-related initiatives across the Asia-Pacific region in the future, such as the ESEAP Hub. This name also preserves the flexibility to host other Wikimedia-related events as needed.
