🗂️ Wikimedia CH is celebrating International Archives Week 2026!

This global initiative, organised by the International Council on Archives, is now in its sixth edition and runs from 8–12 June. Here is how to take part:

🖼️ Visit the exhibition "Artistic Intelligence" at Gallery Glaab in Bern from 6–27 June. It explores how archives, platforms and artistic practices can be reimagined in the digital age.

🎙️ Attend the online panel discussion on "Archives for Justice" on June 15 at 18:00 CEST. The speakers will explore the vital role archives play in justice and accountability.

✏️ Contribute to open knowledge by helping us strengthen Swiss archives’ presence on Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons and Wikidata. Check out the map to see where contributions are needed.

How can Wikimedia help shape the future of AI — not only as a source of data, but as a model for human-governed knowledge?

On 29 May, Wikimedia CH will participate in the AI-BRIDGES Symposium at the School of Advanced Study, University of London alongside Wikimedia Deutschland, Wikimedia UK, Wikimedia Brasil, and pleias.

The symposium will explore how AI systems interact with open knowledge infrastructures such as Wikipedia and Wikidata. It will also consider how the Wikimedia Movement can contribute to more transparent, accountable, and public-interest AI.

For Wikimedia CH, this discussion builds on the work begun at the Collective Intelligence vs. Artificial Intelligence roundtable in Lausanne, exploring ways to protect and strengthen Wikimedia as a public knowledge commons in an era where AI increasingly mediates access to information.

Ilario Valdelli, Innovation Programme Lead at Wikimedia CH, will be joining the opening session.

When global attention focuses on a single topic, millions of people often turn to Wikipedia to understand it.

One year ago today, the Wikipedia article about newly-elected Pope Leo XIV received over 7.5 million views in a single day.

It became the most visited Wikipedia article in a single day that was not directly tied to the subject’s death.
