The only thing I can think of is the fembot/femtech programs that have women editing in a myriad of things - education programs, events etc but its not a formal thing. Myself, Adrianne and Alex have been involved but again its not "formal"
The Europeana fashion is sort what you are going for...or Wikimedia UK with their relationship with the Royal society...but it's more seasonal than ongoing...
I'd love to see more formalized things.
Yes, I mean an ongoing thing - not just one or two edit-a-thons.
Not really a Wikipedian in Residence project - more like a long-term commitment and project in which several activities take place over a longer time, with maybe several Wikipedia volunteers involved.
Perhaps Europeana Fashion comes close??

Together with a few other Dutch Wikipedians, I’m brainstorming together with them (and will probably help them during the actual process when the project takes off).

We hope that a few enthusiastic university teachers will teach a term course on second-wave feminism (probably one term of the 2015-16 academic year), and that students will be asked to write or improve Wikipedia articles as an assignment.
