At the Wikimedia Foundation, we believe that free access to knowledge and freedom of expression are fundamental human rights. We believe that when people have good information, they can make better decisions. Free access to information creates economic opportunity and empowers people to build sustainable livelihoods. Knowledge makes our societies more informed, more connected, and more equitable.
Over the past two years, we have seen governments censor Wikipedia, including in Turkey and most recently in China, denying these rights to millions of people around the world.

Wikimedia Vakfı olarak bilgiye özgür erişimin ve ifade özgürlüğünün temel insan hakları olduğuna inanıyoruz. İnsanların iyi bilgiye sahip olduklarında daha iyi kararlar alabileceklerine inanıyoruz. Bilgiye özgür erişim ekonomik fırsatlar yaratıyor ve insanların sürdürülebilir geçim kaynakları oluşturmalarını sağlıyor. Bilgi, toplumlarımızın daha bilinçli, daha bağlantılı ve daha adil olmasını sağlıyor.

Four years ago, Ismael Andani Abdulai was in graduate school at the University of California, Berkeley, working towards a master’s in law.

In the space of one election cycle, authoritarian governments, moneyed elites and fringe hackers figured out how to game elections, bypass democratic processes, and turn social networks into battlefields. Facebook, Google and Twitter – where our politics now takes place – have lost control and are struggling to claw it back. As our lives migrate online, we are gradually moving into a world of datafied citizens and real-time surveillance.
