حول المؤتمر

ما معنى مصطلح غلام وماذا يشمل؟

GLAM is an acronym for Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums. It was adopted in the early 2010s by the Wikimedia movement to describe the activities carried out with cultural heritage institutions. However, as the work of the communities has evolved to include other cultural expressions and knowledge activities outside institutions (such as the Wiki Loves Folklore campaign, among many other examples), the term might not fully represent the scope of the work that people are currently doing around heritage & culture. Whether this term represents our work is an important conversation to be held at the GLAM Wiki Conference: The Heritage, Culture & Wikimedia Conference!

لمن يوجه هذا المؤتمر؟

We expect to bring together professionals from heritage institutions (including cultural & scientific heritage institutions) that are working on releasing collections openly, open practitioners & open allies (i.e, Creative Commons adovcates), Wikimedia volunteers working with cultural heritage (be it with an institution or outside of it, i.e., organizing Wiki Loves Folklore, Art+Feminism, etc.), and overall, anyone interested in the intersection between heritage, Wikimedia & the open movement.

ما هي أهداف هذا المؤتمر؟

Based on the responses of over +250 participants on the Conference Engagement Survey collected as part of our grant application, we have identified for main goals for the Conference:

  • Identify strategic priorities for the GLAM Wiki communities that promote knowledge equity, diversity and inclusion.
  • Exchange and build capacity around GLAM Wiki tools, outreach and collaborations.
  • Reflect, discuss and think of new roadmaps for our existing tools and platforms.
  • Reconnect after the pandemic, network and discuss the future of GLAM Wiki.

ما هي اللغات التي سيعقد بها هذا المؤتمر

The main language of the Conference will be English, but we will be providing simultaneous interpretation to Spanish & Portuguese in at least two rooms. This means that if you speak Spanish and/or Portuguese and you want to give a talk in Spanish and/or Portuguese, you will be able to do so. There will be interpretation provided to English.

هل يمكن أن أستضيف حدثا عن بعد؟

نعم. من المرحب به للغاية استضافة حدث عن بعد لكننا لا نملك تمويلا حاليا لهذه الغاية.

What type of scholarships are available?

You can apply for two types of scholarship, a full scholarship and a partial scholarship.

Full scholarship covers:

  • Flights
  • Accommodation
  • Registration
  • Meals at the event
  • Limited medical insurance
  • Online visa cost to Uruguay

Partial scholarship covers:

  • Accommodation
  • Registration
  • Meals at the event
  • Limited medical insurance
  • Online visa cost

We won't be offering any scholarships for online participation.

Will Wikimedistas de Uruguay be providing visa support?

Yes, we intend to provide visa support for those needing a visa to travel to Uruguay. However, bear in mind that we might only be able to provide support for visas to Uruguay. If you need an in-transit visa to the Schengen space (Europe), the United States or any other country that requires you to have an in-transit visa, we are unable to offer you full visa support. We will do our best to avoid flights that require in-transit visa.

Do I have to present a program proposal to apply for a scholarship?

NO. Our grading criteria does not prioritize people that have submitted a program proposal, but rather what you can bring to the conversation in a broad sense.

Can I apply to the scholarship in my own language?

We appreciate the multilingualism that currently exists in Wikimedia communities. However, for this process, we kindly ask you to submit your scholarship application in English, since we don't have time or capacity to translate every application into English. If English is not your first language, you can always use an online translator service to translate your application from your native language to English.

Beware that the Conference will be held mainly in English, with simultaneous interpretation only to Spanish and Portuguese.

How the Scholarship Committee will grade scholarship applications?

The members of the Scholarship Committee will grade applications on a scale from 1 to 5 (with 1 being very low and 5 being very high) based on the following questions:

To what extent:

  1. Does the applicant provide good examples of involvement with the open or Wikimedia movement in relation to heritage (cultural or scientific)?
  2. Does the applicant demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the conversations that will take place at the GLAM Wiki Conference?
  3. Does the applicant bring new perspectives or experiences, or contribute significantly to the diversity of the GLAM Wiki Conference?
  4. Does the applicant bring significant skills that will contribute to the larger GLAM Wiki Conference?
  5. Does the applicant contribute significantly to a transformational change (whether in their community or in larger debates) on the future of GLAM Wiki collaborations?

Make sure that you have this criteria in mind when replying to the questions on the form.

Aside from that, remember that any scholarship applicant has to be in good standing with the Friendly Space Policy and the Universal Code of Conduct. Applicants will be screened for any violations to the UCoC or other global bans that might prevent them from participating in any Wikimedia event.

How many scholarships are available?

Unfortunately, we don't have a lot of scholarships available. We are estimating that will be able to provide between 40-50 scholarships with the current funding available.

Is there a regional criteria for scholarships?

This is our current regional distribution for scholarships:

  • 50% of scholarships to Latin America (≈25 people);
  • 25% to Africa (including the MENA region) (≈13 ppl);
  • 15% to Asia (including Australia & Oceania) (≈6 ppl);
  • Remaining 10% of the scholarships to Europe (including CEE) and North America (≈5 ppl)
