Sounds like a great opportunity, and the WikiMed example is super relevant, indeed

Nichole and I (on the WMF education program team) were actually discussing this very event yesterday. I'm copying her as well as the education list, in case there are additional ideas we can surface.

Cheers,

If I understand you correctly, seems like a good opportunity to mention medical content on Wikipedia, and the efforts to translate the 100 most important medical articles (now already 700) to as many languages as possible, as well as create an offline app with all medical content, which we now have in 10 languages. This can literally be the difference between life and death in the developing world and could come in handy in times of various types of crises. 
CCing Doc James, who can direct you to the best and most updated resource about that. 

Best,

Hi all

I have the possibility of presenting at the UNESCO Learning Week in March on the role of open licensing and Wikimedia in education in emergencies and crises. I haven't been able to find out much information about the subject, does anyone have any resources they could recommend?

Thanks

John
