Thank you for your work Ricky, and for the intention to create a
centralized page to explore it all. Looking forward to it.
Best

Hi Florence,
Thanks so much for this feedback- it's incredibly helpful! We've added
some categories to the report's Meta page to help folks find it
easier, and will do the same on Commons. As for connecting this page
further- yes, I fully intend to! One of my objectives for the next few
months is to create a centralized page about our human rights work
that links to our Human Rights Policy, this and other human rights
impact assessments, human rights-related resources, and other pages
and documents that support the Foundation's work in meeting our human
rights commitments.
Thank you again!

Thanks Ricky
Would it be possible that you somehow further connect the meta
page and the commons document to this meta page (or set of
pages...) to increase findability in the future ?
https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Policy:Human_Rights_Policy
I could drop a link there, but maybe it deserve a slightly better
treatement (sentence or paragraph in the Human Rights Policy page ?)
Just to give a bit of background... a diff is for immediate
consumption. But will soon be in the depth of the site. In one
month... it will be invisible.
The meta page is hardly connected to any other wiki page. So if
people do not know it exist... they will not find it by chance
(see here :
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Wikimedia_Foundation_Child_Rights_Impact_Assessment)
And the report on Commons
(https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:ArticleOne_-_WMF_Child_Rights_Impact_Assessment_Report_2023.pdf)
does not really have any good categories that would help people
find it either (right now... only taggued with a currently non
existant category).
So your current announcements and coverage is great NOW. But is
not great for the future. It is not connected enough to other long
standing regular pathways.
Thanks in advance for your help to give a long lasting impact for
your work !

Dear Wikimedians,
On behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation, I am pleased to announce
the publication of our first child rights impact assessment
<https://diff.wikimedia.org/2024/01/17/protecting-youth-online-wikimedia-foundation-publishes-its-first-child-rights-impact-assessment/>(CRIA).
This report forms an important part of the Foundation’s long-term
efforts to meet the commitments articulated in our Human Rights
Policy
<https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Policy:Human_Rights_Policy>.
The assessment builds upon our 2020 organizational Human Rights
Impact Assessment
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Human_Rights_Impact_Assessment>(HRIA),
which identified risks to children’s rights as one of five
categories of significant human rights risks facing the
Foundation and Wikimedia communities. The HRIA recommended that
the Foundation undertake a targeted assessment to better
understand this category of risks.
What is in the report?
Publishing this CRIA represents a significant step forward in the
Foundation’s human rights endeavors. The CRIA was prepared by
Article One <https://articleoneadvisors.com/>, a strategy
consultancy with expertise in human rights. In it, Article One
identifies and analyzes the impacts, risks, and opportunities
posed to children that access and participate in Wikimedia
projects. It proposes recommendations that the Foundation and
Wikimedia’s volunteer community could implement to mitigate those
risks, so that children can fully benefit from participating in
our projects
Of the recommendations, the Foundation is positioned to act upon
a number of them, while others provide an opportunity for
collaboration between the Foundation and the volunteer community
to address, and others the volunteer community is better
positioned to lead. We hope these recommendations will give us
all a basis for dialogue and collaboration around making
Wikimedia a safer space for children.
Making sense of the findings
To help you digest this report, we’ve prepared a number of
resources for you, including:
*
A Diff blog pos
<https://diff.wikimedia.org/2024/01/17/protecting-youth-online-wikimedia-foundation-publishes-its-first-child-rights-impact-assessment/>t
summarizing the findings of the CRIA and what it means for
the movement;
*
A Meta page
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Child_Rights_Impact_Assessment>to
serve as the “home” for the report and to provide more
background information on the report, including its
objectives, the timeline in which it was completed, the
methodology that was employed to develop the report, and
actions the Foundation has taken since first receiving the
report;
*
The full report
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:ArticleOne_-_WMF_Child_Rights_Impact_Assessment_Report_2023.pdf>,
which contains a foreword from the Foundation’s General
Counsel, an executive summary, a risk analysis, and
recommendations. The report is available in English, French
and Spanish.
Working together to protect child safety on Wikimedia projects
We want to hear from you on this topic: What questions do you
have? What are your thoughts on the risks and recommendations
from the report? What is your community already doing, or what
would you like to do, to ensure the safety of children on
Wikimedia projects? How can we collaborate to make progress?
Leave a message on the report’s Talk page

we gather across channels to prepare a map of efforts happening

implementation. We look forward to hearing from you.
