It would be nice if all of the chapters send to their governments a petition to
allow a global standardized use of media just for wikimedia projects, it is a
big problem that every country has different laws on copyright and public

letter directly to the board of trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation.

Maybe it's a cultural issue, does e.g.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_letter have a geopolitically

most active on Commons[2] and ask them to help engage or create

Israel. I might not agree 100% with everything in them, but they are
generally on top of the issues, and they focus on the problems they law
poses for us and our need for better solutions - all worth bringing to a
