Dear superb Wikipedians …
As most of you know, the GLAM WIKI conference is taking place at the end of this week in
the Netherlands, organised by Wikimedia NL. The programme committee came up with the
excellent idea of challenging all delegates that are attending - and anyone who wants to
get involved remotely - to create or improve the articles about important cultural
institutions in the “global south”.
To do this, it would be good to have a list of the institutions / cultural practices that
should be featured in Wikipedia - and we need your help!! Please could you add the name of
2-4 institutions or practices in your country that you think are very important culturally
and whose articles need either creating or expanding. Please put down your ideas for GLAMs
that need writing about on this page

Thanks so much, and I hope to see some of you very soon!
