Hi David,

       I just returned from a trip to Suriname, where I gave various presentations on using Wikidata. It might also be interesting to reach out to local contacts in Suriname to explore possibilities to use Wikidata in the region. We are currently exploring opportunities to actively enrich wikidata with (scientific) data.. Being one of the Guyana's Suriname has an interesting position as a gate to both the Latin America and  the Caribbean. 

I have added to of my local contacts as cc to this mail. 

Cheers,

Andra

Dear all.

I hope you this mail find you well.

I am from Bogotá (Colombia) and right now I am in the Netherlands. I am
not a PhD student but I want to attend to this meeting. Also I want to
talk to people from Wikidata NL to see if we could do something from
Colombia. I have some ideas but I am not pretty sure if it is viable.

I am working as researcher in a foundation called Conector [1] and we
are looking how to implement open science in Colombia. If I could do
some links between you guys and Latin America, please let me know.

Thanks for your recommendations and guidelines.

Cheers!
