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.
