Wiki Loves Monuments is an international photo contest
for monuments,
organized by Wikimedia Communities across the world around September each
year. This year Ghana joins the world to organize the contest that seeks to
preserve Cultural Heritage through pictures, which is an important part
of the knowledge Wikipedia collects and disseminates.
Everybody can contribute images as well as write articles. An image is
worth a thousand words and this is universal irrespective of where you are
geo-located. This is an opportunity for indigenes, local enthusiasts,
tourists, etc. to (re)discover the cultural, historical, or scientific
significance of these monuments in their communities or country.
This year, the contest spans* 1st - 30th September, 2016*. There will be
a series of activities, including* individual uploading to the contest *(spanning
the duration of the campaign), *three (3) photo-expeditions* and* 2 upload
session/edit-a-thon* scheduled for *3rd, 10th, 17th, 21st & 24th*. The
three photo-expeditions will cover the regions that has most of their
monuments uncovered and the upload/edit-a-thons session will afford many
the opportunity to upload the pictures taken while we try to put articles
or improve already existing articles about the various scenery visited.
Below is the schedule;
- *Photo-expedition to the Greater Accra Region (3rd)*
- *Photo-expedition to the Western Region (10th)*
- *Photo-expedition to the Ashanti Region (17th)*
- *Edit-a-thon
(21st)*
- *Upload Session
(24th)*
Will send further arrangements plans for each activity by the weekend and
please be informed that space is limited for each trip so it will be on a
first come first serve basis.
You may further find details of the contest here
