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?

report? What is your community already doing, or what would you like
