Hello everyone,
(Sorry for cross-posting)
I am sending January's Education newsletter. The first education newsletter in 2015.
This month we had great achievements around the world. The program is getting ready to kick off in Syria and is expanding in Mexico and Egypt. Updates about Wikimania scholarships and submissions are in this issue with many other stories.
Thank you for everyone who participated in writing this issue. We look forward to hearing more stories from you!
Best regards,
Samir Elsharbaty, Communications Intern, Wikipedia Education Program.
