Hello ESEAP Wikimedians!
Wikimedia Education through the EduWiki Outreach Collaborators (EWOC) is conducting office hours and regional meetings to provide spaces for learning, sharing of projects, tools, or ideas with the education community from the region.
Regional education meetings are planned by the Community Specialists in collaboration with Wikimedia Education Team. This is an opportunity to strengthen the EduWiki network, explore collaboration opportunities, and identify common practices or challenges that are faced by our community members in different regions of the world. For this month, we are excited to meet with the communities based in the ESEAP Region.
Our first ESEAP Regional Education Meeting will take place on 27th November 2021 at 7:00 UTC, (14:00 GMT+7, Indonesia Time, 15:00 GMT+8 Malaysia Time, 17:00 GMT+10 Australian Eastern Standard Time), with the theme: Wikimedia Education work pre-pandemic, during the pandemic, and what are the plans for the future.
During this regional education meeting, we will have the opportunity to learn more about:
Education activities in Indonesia - Dimas Hardijanto, Deputy Coordinator of Education Program of Wikimedia Indonesia
Education activities in Australia - Alex Lum, President of Wikimedia Australia
Education activities in Malaysia - Dody Ismoyo, Wikimedia Community User Group Malaysia
Education activities in the Philippines - Imelda Brazal, Wiki Advocates Philippines
If you have other ideas, topics, or questions you want to ask, you can add them to the agenda here. We will try to answer them during the meeting. We are looking forward to seeing you there! This event will be livestreamed from Wikimedia Foundation Education Team’s Facebook Page. You can also join the event through the Zoom link, meeting link is available on our event page.
The session will be led by Imelda Brazal, ESEAP EWOC Community Specialist. If you want to volunteer to interpret this meeting for your community members in a local language, please reply to this email.
We encourage you to participate, share your ideas, and help this become a fully community-led initiative.
Best,
Imelda, EWOC Community Specialist Team, and Education Team
