Hello | مرحباً بكم | Olá | Bonjour | Hola Wikimedia-L,

Let's Connect monthly Connectathon happens every first Friday of the month. It's an opportunity for all Let's Connect participants to meet and mingle in a relaxed environment, discussing more casual topics of interest. However, this month's Connectathon is open only to women Wikimedians.

This session, Skills Connectathon: Gulf Wikimedians in the Knowledge Space ملتقى المعرفة: ويكيميديات الخليج في ساحة المعرفة, aims to celebrate women, their voices, and the beautiful skills they bring to the Wikimedia Movement and the world beyond Wiki projects. We’re gathering Wikimedian women from the Arabic-speaking MENA region, mainly from the Gulf, to share one simple skill each - something small but meaningful - in a space designed for learning, connecting, and lifting each other. It’s not about formal training, it’s about coming together, sharing what we know, and leaving with new ideas, inspiration, and maybe even a new connection or two.

Session date: Friday, May 2nd, 2025, from 3:00 - 4:30 UTC
