Wikimedia is a global movement whose mission is to bring free educational content to the world. Wikimedia is the collective name for the Wikimedia movement, revolving around a group of inter-related projects, including Wikipedia, Wikidata, Wikimedia Commons and others, which aim to use the collaborative power of the Internet, and the ''wiki'' concept, to create and share free knowledge of all kinds. Wikiproject UNESCO currently covers the following sites:
