Dear Wikimedia & Education community,
The deadline for submissions to Wikimania is fast approaching. This year there is a space dedicated specifically to education, and we need your submissions to make it engaging and relevant.
Submit your ideas by *June 1st *here: https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2019:Education < https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2019:Education?fbclid=IwAR1TaJdz5WH6QWa...
This year, Wikimania is organized around the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), these are goals agreed on by UN member states, that we should achieve by 2030. SDG4 aims to ensure that all people have access to quality education and lifelong learning. We believe that the Wikimedia projects can make a big difference by providing relevant educational resources, especially in mother languages, and through empowering learners as content creators and critical consumers of information.
We know you have great ideas for workshops, lightening talks, presentations, and more for this space. Don't forget to submit your proposal before June 1st!
