The first iteration of the Share Your Struggle campaign ran from 15 August 2021 and ran until 15 September, and gathered 600+ images and 25+ videos from 30+ participants. Apart from a CentralNotice banner across Wikimedia platforms, focused outreach efforts helped to engage professional photographers, photojournalists and social activist organizations such as Lok Sangharsh Morcha and Narmada Navnirman Abhiyan.

Five of the top ten images are related to the 2020-2021 Indian farmers’ protest, which has been going on for over one year at various borders of the national capital, Delhi. Three images are related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the lockdown. Three photographers (JK Photography, Ravan Khosa and TAPAS KUMAR HALDER) have two photographs each in the top ten images.
