Dear all, 

Wikimedia projects would not be possible without the work of countless volunteers, passionately working on bringing free knowledge to the world. Today we are wikicelebrating one of such volunteers - a longtime Wikimedia photographer and education projects organizer,  Brahim Faraji.

In 2016, Brahim Faraji's search for a way to make a positive impact led him to the Wikimedia Movement. Browsing the internet, Wikipedia caught his eye. He soon realized it was more than just an encyclopedia: “I looked to know more about Wikipedia, how it works and its background, then I found the Wikimedia movement with its values which motivated me to work harder and with passion”, he says.

He became a passionate Wikimedia photographer, contributing pictures on diverse topics: from TBOURIDA Festival  (henna on a Moroccan wedding), to rebab instrument, from dramatic stormy sky to cultural Morocco’s cultural heritage sites. His work has been part of popular Wikimedia photo campaigns like Wiki Loves Africa, Wiki Loves Folklore, and especially Wiki Loves Monuments, where Brahim impressively achieved finalist status for four years in a row.

Today we celebrate his dedication to the Wikimedia movement!
