Regional bodies (EU, ASEAN): May use it internally, and their websites might link to Wikipedia for general explanations of topics. 2.

Humanitarian aid (Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders): Potentially in disaster response for quick info on affected areas, languages spoken, etc. Development NGOs: Similar to IGOs, for research, understanding local contexts, and educational purposes. 3. Scientific and Academic Organizations: Research collaborations (CERN, International Space Station): Likely used by researchers for quick reference, though primary sources are essential for their work.
