The Wikimedia Foundation has a Board of Trustees to oversee the Wikimedia Foundation's strategy. They approve the priorities of the Foundation and the resources needed to deliver them. Board members are not paid for their work and are volunteers – they bring together different viewpoints and perspectives to their decisions. You can have your say on who is on the board by voting.

There are 16 seats on the Board:
8 Community-and-affiliate seats,
7 Board-selected seats, and
1 founder seat.

Each trustee serves a three-year term.

Board-selected trustees are selected through a global search process. They join the Board once the Board of Trustees and the candidates are satisfied there is a mutual fit.

The trustees commit about 150 hours per year to their work. They serve on at least one of the Board’s committees. These committees include Board Governance, Audit, Human Resources, Product, Special Projects, and Community Affairs.
