Dear friends,
We are delighted to invite you to this month's EduWiki Live event which will take place on *28th/10/2022*, from *15:00 UTC* to 16:00 UTC.
The Wikimedia Foundation's education team hosts EduWiki Live events quarterly to connect the education community with stakeholders from the education sector to help them understand best practices from a global education perspective. These spaces allow the international community of Wikimedians who care about education to connect with academic experts, policymakers, and educational researchers.
In the previous edition of EduWiki live https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04h7Hj7Ke9Q&t=176s we were joined by Dr. Guadalupe Vadillo and Dr. Jackeline Bucio from the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), experts in open education and educational research. They presented the importance of documenting EduWiki strategies to preserve the educational experience (data, success factors, pitfalls), so new teachers can learn from previous experiences.
We will be joined at this event by librarians Alice Kibombo and Laurie Bridges, who have led various Wikimedia Education initiatives in their respective communities. They will discuss how academia and libraries collaborate using Wikipedia and its sister projects in educational institutions.
Our social media channels will be live-streaming the event. The following are the specifics:
