Dear fellow Wikimedians, Thank you for this detailed update on the 23rd Wikimedia Portugal General Assembly. It's wonderful to see such continuity and renewal within the governance. I would like to congratulate all the newly elected members, especially Alice Santiago Faria and Ana Afonso, who will undoubtedly bring their skills and passion to our shared mission.
The arrival of Manuel Anastácio to the Fiscal Council is also excellent news, given his valuable experience. I look forward to seeing how these new governance structures will help strengthen our community and promote our projects, particularly for the protection of minority languages. Thank you again to the entire team and our community for their continued commitment.
