[Wikimedia Education] Wikipedia Ambassadors, Wikiversity and possibility other WMF projects

[Everton Zanella Alvarenga]

Hi all,

I'd like to point out a discussion I've just started on Wikiversity
asking if they are using this project as part of the Wikipedia
ambassadors program

http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Wikiversity:Colloquium#Wikiversity_and_Wikipedia_Ambassadors_program

and ask you if you know of any other Wikimedia Foundation project,
beyond Wikipedia, involved in the Ambassadors program. If some case
you know to tell us is not in English or some Romanic language, I'd
like to read your experience about it.

Also, a short comment bellow about a point of Juan's nice description
(thanks!) about Czech Republic situation of its educational sector.

What about using Wikiversity in Czech <http://cs.wikiversity.org/> for
these social problems you mention? I've seen similar comments on
Wikiversity to be more hospitable than Wikipedia (see, for instance,
the last note in blue here <http://diigo.com/0lzhd>), from volunteers
of both English and Portuguese languages projects.

Best wishes,

Tom
