Dear All,
The Access to Knowledge (A2K) team at the Centre for Internet and Society, India has been
engaged with work on research on Indian language Wikimedia projects since 2019. You may
see some of our recently published reports here:
1.Mapping GLAM in
Maharashtra:https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Mapping_GLAM_in_Mahara…
2.Understanding Gaps on Wikidata on Cultural Heritage Structures in
Bengal:https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CIS-A2K/Research/Understanding_the_d…
This year, following up on learnings from work so far, we are undertaking a needs
assessment exercise to a) understand the awareness about research within Indian language
Wikimedia communities and identify existing projects if any, and b) gather community
inputs on knowledge gaps and priority areas of focus and the role of research in
addressing the same.
We would therefore request interested community members, working with or interested in
research on Indian language Wikimedia projects to respond to the needs assessment
questionnaire here:https://forms.gle/2xGAUBKSVJTK7Wks9
The deadline to submit a response has been extended till 5 March 2021. Feel free to write
in any language. Please write to us with your queries

best wishes,
