Hello all
We are very excited to announce the winners of Wiki Loves Africa 2021. Due to a
permissions issue (that is now resolved - thanks Commons heroes!) we had to delay the
external announcement of Wiki Loves Africa's 2021 winners.
As you will see on the official announcement
<https://www.wikilovesafrica.net/the-universal-human-experience-celebrated-in-wiki-loves-africas-photo-competition-on-wikipedia/>
[1] there is so much to celebrate in the full collection but the winners really do shine,
and show why Commons and the Wikimedia projects are so important. If you are interested,
dig into the information here …

Wiki Loves Africa could not happen without the tireless input and energy from the
Wikimedia communities, user groups and enthusiasts across Africa and beyond. Thank you,
thank you for your incredible enthusiasm.
The international jury this year was made up of a heady balance of Commonists and
professional photographers. Your dedication, time and experience was invaluable. I hope I
have covered all of the time and effort in this detailed jury repor
