More information

The "coordinators" are members of Wikimedia Italia that are active on a specific area and act as a contact point for that area; they have a yearly term and a call for coordinators is published at the end of each year. Since 2017, some of them are focusing on OpenStreetMap. On the chapter's website you can find the full up-to-date list of coordinators.

Since 2017, any local chapter can select one person to sit in the OpenStreetMap Foundation Advisory Board. As of July 2018, Wikimedia Italia's representative is Sabas88.
