Hello all, these are your 2030 theme-like statements you submitted after I placed a call via the mailing list and our WhatsApp chat group.
*Physical spaces*
Paicy Debzie and Ebenezer Gasonoo say that as a user group, we should have a physical space within which we operate. We should adopt the model of the hubs that allow people to walk in, even if it’s just to make enquiries about our community. The online based community is limited.
*Wikipedia Education Program*
Ato Ulzen Appiah says Wikipedia Education Program is our best to get academic community to buy into Wikipedia and the efforts. WEP efforts should be intensified.
*Wikipedia Zero*
Randy Baah says Wikipedia Zero should be extended to be on all networks.
*User Groups & Emerging communities*
Justice Alottey says WMF should strengthen user groups in emerging communities in terms of logistics to undertake programs that can impact the community and in turn Wikipedia as well.
He also added WMF should be much more interested in helping the emerging communities where there’s a rise in internet penetration, get to the standards of the well-established communities.
