Content projects

Content Projects

On March we celebrated our 16th anniversary with an international writing challenge based on Catalan Scientists biographies. This was the third time we run this challenge. This year wasn't as successful as previous editions, probably due to the overlap of other writing challenges and wiki-related activities, but we are happy with the results.
