Hello everyone,

I am happy to announce that the #SheSaid Campaign https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Women/SheSaid/SheSaid_2026 will be taking place again this year following the success of previous editions!

The campaign will run from *1 September to 31 December 2026*, and we are excited to support communities around the world in organizing local activities. If you are planning to apply for a grant to organize activities as part of the campaign, now is the time to start preparing your application.

*The grant application deadline is 1 July 2026*, so we encourage you to begin the process as soon as possible.

To support applicants, we will host an *Office Hour* on *Tuesday, 16 June 2026, at 4:00 PM UTC*. During this session, Willy Buloso https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:WBuloso-WMF, Senior Program Officer for the Sub-Saharan Africa Region at the Wikimedia Foundation, will answer your questions and share practical advice on preparing a strong grant application for the #SheSaid Campaign.

We strongly encourage you to start drafting your application before attending the Office Hour. This will help you identify any questions or challenges you may have and allow you to make the most of the guidance provided during the session. You can then finalize and submit your application with greater confidence.

To register for the event, please use this link https://w.wiki/QkVH.

We look forward to another successful edition and to seeing your exciting projects and activities!

Cheers! Afek
