BETA: The list does not yet contain all major organizations. You can help improve the data!
Do you see missing organizations or want to add data? For each organization, you'll find an edit icon that allows you to make changes directly in Wikidata. In our short guide, we'll show you how easy it is and how new organizations can be added.
