Hello,

I hope that you are all doing well.

We are excited to announce that nominations are open for the 2024 UK Wikimedian of the Year Awards.

We are asking you to nominate individuals and organisations that have been involved with Wikimedia UK's efforts to advance open knowledge in 2023/24.

The categories for this year are:

-

UK Wikimedian of the Year (Individual) -

Partnership of the Year (Organisation) -

Up and Coming Wikimedian (Individual)

We are looking for people and partnerships within the Wikimedia UK community who have really impressed you with their open knowledge work, in 2023/24. We are particularly keen to hear about people and organisations who delivered projects addressing our strategic themes of Knowledge Equity, Information Literacy, and Climate and Environment.

Nominations will be judged by members of the Community Development Committee and winners will be announced at the Community Celebration on Saturday 23rd November 2024.
