>> Dear friends,

>> What a joy! The Wikimedia community in Brazil is celebrating the recognition

>> phase and are happy that it coincides with the [official recognition of
>> Wikipedia as a digital public
>> good](https://wikimediafoundation.org/news/2025/02/12/wikipedia-recognized-as-a-digital-public-good/).

>> I want to thank the global movement for the warm reception of this news

>> global movement's activities. So, more than ever, thank you for everything
>> this incredible movement accomplishes.
>>
>> Wiki Movimento Brasil—oops, Wikimedia Brasil—maintains a strong commitment
>> to community power. I appreciated the recent [note from the Wikimedia
>> Foundation](https://diff.wikimedia.org/2025/02/13/wikimedia-brasil-becomes-the-newest-wikimedia-chapter/)
>> about our journey within Wikimedia, as it highlights how we continue to
>> attract and retain our greatest asset: Wikimedians! In that note, I also see
>> our evolution from a gathering of geeks for the good to become
>> open-knowledge advocates. The challenges are immense, and Brazil (and the
>> world!) needs us more than ever.

>> I want to send my deepest gratitude to everyone who helped build this new

>> I also want to thank the Affiliations Committee and the Board of Trustees of
>> the Wikimedia Foundation, as well as the staff involved in the recognition
>> process, for working with us to formalize the chapter agreement. And of
>> course: hugs to everyone in the community!
