Join the webinar “How to use Wikipedia offline”!
In many parts of the world, access to the internet remains limited or unreliable, but that doesn’t mean access to knowledge should be. Join us for an insightful webinar, organised by Wikimedia Ukraine, that will introduce practical ways to use Wikipedia offline.
What you will learn:
- Why offline access to Wikipedia matters - Tools and technologies that make it possible (e.g., Kiwix, OfflinePedia, and more) - Real-world use cases and success stories - How you can support and promote offline access in your community
Speakers:
Kate Kifa and Joshua Salazar, experienced Wikimedia contributors and advocates for open knowledge, will guide you through the session. They’ll share their expertise, real cases, and tips for getting the most out of offline resources.

We at Wiki Project Med continue to ship Internet-in-a-Box globally, having shipped about 400 devices to 14 countries so far in 2025.
We have just launched the distribution of customized versions, ie we have taught our staff working on this how to make them.
While the Wikipedia store is sold out, there are links from there to how to order directly. We also have instructions on how to make your own for those who are interested.
