sites to share them with the world via Wikimedia Commons. This year, we aim
to highlight the rich cultural heritage of the UAE through photography.

and promoting the competition. Tasks may include outreach, social media
promotion, coordination with participants, and more.
Jury Members: We are also seeking jury members who are familiar with
Wikimedia Commons guidelines and have expertise in photography or cultural
heritage. Your role will involve evaluating and selecting the best
photographs submitted to the competition.
