Dear participants,
This is a final reminder that the EduWiki Workshop: “Children and Wikis”
will take place tomorrow, 22 Oct 2025, 04:30 PM UTC.
Join us as we explore how to create Wikimedia content that genuinely
resonates with different audiences, especially children. The session will
use the Klexikon (the German children’s encyclopedia) as an example for
discussion.
Please consider joining with your camera on, as this improves interaction
and makes it easier for the speaker to “read” the audience.
If you haven’t registered yet, please do so here:
