Dear Euphemia,
This is a great addition to Wikimedia! Thanks for sharing! I wonder how you worked on the
copyright of the audio files, as I can find it on Commons and I'm really interested on
that. If you could share the process, it would be a great learning path.
Thanks
Galder

Subject: [Wikimedia-l] [AID Project] Contributing to intangible cultural heritage on
Wikimedia Projects
Hi Everyone,
How is underrepresented knowledge on wikimedia projects addressed through new ways of
contributions? Intangible cultural heritage of different tribes in Africa is one such
knowledge facing underrepresentation on wikimedia projects. As indigenous people migrate
to cities; face an aging population of cultural guardians and a strong tradition of oral
storytelling, it is important to save the voices of knowledge at the brink of extinction.
See

the Wikimedia Foundation is supporting community efforts to digitize endangered igbo
dances in Nigeria through the AID
project<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Audiovisuals_of_Igbo_Dances_(AID…ct>.
Kind regards,
Euphemia Uwandu,
On behalf of the Project Team
