Subject: [Wikimedia-l] GLAM Partnership and Wikimedian in Residence program
with RIWATCH, Arunachal Pradesh by CIS-A2K
To: <wikimedia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>
Dear Wikimedians,
Greetings of the day!
CIS-A2K is glad to share this update with you. We have started developing
partnerships with various institutions in the North East region of India
since 2019. We conceptualised the GLAM project with an organization
named *Research
Institute of World's Ancient Traditions, Cultures and Heritage* (RIWATCH),
a non-profit research and community based organisation in Arunachal Pradesh
during the year 2020 and proposed it in our 2020-21 plan. But due to the
pandemic, the process was delayed. We have launched a GLAM-Wiki project
with RIWATCH from March 2022 in collaboration with the West Bengal
Wikimedians User Group, which will be helping in coordination and execution
of this project. A Wikimedian in Residence has been assigned at RIWATCH to
document, organize and upload the data and content of the rich collection
of the institute focusing on the oral traditions, language and culture of
different tribes in Arunachal Pradesh. The orientation and planning
meetings were conducted with RIWATCH members and a local tribal
organisation named Idu Mishmi Cultural & Literary Society to develop the
GLAM project. After the training of WiR, the GLAM work on Wikimedia Commons
has already been started. The details can be seen here - Commons category

We welcome your suggestions.
Regards,
Subodh & Bodhisattwa
on behalf of CIS-A2K and West Bengal Wikimedians User Group (respectively)
