The strategic plan will be the guiding document for Wikimedia DC's activities for the next five years. From Wikipedia:
 
 
:Generally, strategic planning deals with at least one of three key questions:
 
:# "What do we do?"
 
:# "For whom do we do it?"
 
:# "How do we excel?"
 
 
==Our stakeholders==
 
Those with an interest in Wikimedia DC's activities include:
 
 
* Wikimedia Foundation
