Hello everyone,
Ivo Kruusamägi, the organiser of the Wiki Science Competition http://www.wikisciencecompetition.org/ internationally (it will take place in November 2017), would like to know if anyone in South Africa is interested in heading up the organisation of the competition in South Africa? If you are interested then please let me know.
Best regards,
Douglas.

Hi!
Science photo competition is coming again in this November: http://www. wikisciencecompetition.org/
Based on the last competition in 2015 it's reasonable to assume that there could be ca 10 000 participants and over 50 000 submissions this time. But to really pull that off, there's a need to find enough local organizers who would take care of local country-based sub-competitions.
The task is relatively simple: there has to be someone, who would promote the competition locally and set up a jury to select the local winners.
Any interest in Wikimedia South Africa about organizing this competition?
Regards Ivo Kruusamägi
