'''Movement Strategy and Governance''' supports the participation of Wikimedia communities and affiliates in the [[metawiki:Movement_Strategy|Movement Strategy]] initiatives. We also support major policy and governance matters, such as Terms of Use, Code of Conduct or Board elections.</translate>▼
The '''Movement Strategy and Governance''' (MSG) team was formed in March 2021, when Movement Strategy joined the [[<tvar name="1">m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees/Call for feedback: Community Board seats#Team</tvar>|Board governance facilitators]] (tasked with supporting the 2021 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees selections) under Quim Gil’s leadership. In mid-2021, the [[<tvar name="2">m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/2021 consultations/Enforcement</tvar>|Universal Code of Conduct facilitators]] joined the MSG team. The team further grew to include Movement Strategy programmatic roles, as well as community facilitators representing all eight regions, using a regional approach as a vehicle for equity in community participation: East and Southeast Asia and Pacific; Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia; Latin America and the Caribbeans; Middle East and North Africa; Northern America (USA and Canada); Northern and Western Europe; South Asia; and Sub-Saharan Africa. The primary role of the facilitation team within the context of broader community engagement is stakeholder building.

The team’s focus was on providing support to communities and engaging communities on topics related to Movement Strategy and Governance. This support included engagement around the Universal Code of Conduct, Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees selections, Hubs, Movement Charter, and supporting initiatives like [[<tvar name="1">m:Special:MyLanguage/Grants:MSIG/About</tvar>|Movement Strategy Implementation Grants]] and the [[<tvar name="2">m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Strategy/Forum/Proposal</tvar>|Movement Strategy Forum]].

In April 2023, as part of the Wikimedia Foundation’s [[<tvar name="1">m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation Annual Plan/2023-2024</tvar>|Annual Planning Process]], the Wikimedia Foundation’s role in Movement Strategy processes changed. Due to this shifting role, the Movement Strategy and Governance team was dissolved. Movement Strategy implementation is being coordinated more centrally through the office of the CEO, with emphasis on supporting the success of the Movement Charter. In an effort to maintain and improve [[<tvar name="2">m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation Annual Plan/2023-2024/Goals/Equity#Movement Engagement</tvar>|Movement Engagement]], some MSG teammates (those tasked with facilitation) were moved to the [[<tvar name="3">m:Special:MyLanguage/Communications/Movement Communications</tvar>|Movement Communications]] team and others (those leading or coordinating Movement Strategy work) continued within [[<tvar name="4">m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Resilience and Sustainability</tvar>|Community Resilience and Sustainability]]. The single exception involves Movement Strategy grants, which were moved to the [[<tvar name="5">m:Special:MyLanguage/Grants:Community Resources</tvar>|Advancement department]], which is also taking a leading role in Foundation support of hubs.
