Dear Wikimedians,
I hope you are having a good start of the year. I’m writing on behalf of the organizing team to announce and invite you all to the first EduWiki Week.
The idea of EduWiki Week comes from Wikidata Education Week < https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Eighth_Birthday/Wikidata_Education_We...
,
a virtual celebration event the Education team at Wikimedia Foundation had organized during the 8th birthday of Wikidata.
EduWiki Week is planned as a virtual festival and will be celebrated from 21st February 2022 to 25th February 2022. This will be a hybrid event with asynchronous activities, live interviews, and a final synchronous session. This is our first time organizing a virtual event of this format! The celebration has three main objectives: to connect our volunteers across the globe with each other and with leaders in the education sector; to foster collaboration within our movement; and to promote the work done in education in our movement.
Everyone is invited to participate! How can you do it?
