At UNLOCK, we are looking for your project idea that breaks down social and technical barriers so that more people can participate in, use and share knowledge – projects that create knowledge equity.
This call also goes to project teams in the Wikidata community who are working on new and innovative free knowledge projects. These projects could be the development of tools building on top of Wikidata's data, of applications for social and public good or related to civic tech. A concrete example is GovDirectory who joined the UNLOCK program in 2021 and developed a crowd-sourced and fact-checked directory of official governmental online accounts and services.
Participants can expect professional coaching, peer-to-peer sessions, access to and advice from experts and, if needed, financial support in the form of a grant for the implementation and further development of your idea!
