Takeaways – choose 3 specific Wikimania sessions you attended and describe your key take-aways per session.Three of the sessions I attended were; WikiForHumanRights, Wiki Educational Partnership and Wikimedian of the year award.

In WikiForHumanRights, I got to know that human rights can be incorporated in contents relating to human rights. And that community leaders partner with organizations like UNICEF, UN and the rest. I gained more knowledge about wikiForHumanRight and became very much interested in articles relating to human right. In Wiki educational partnership, I got to know that wikipedia can be taught in school, colleges and universities. Whereby, making it easy to enlighten youths and have new editors on board. In the Wikimedian of the year session, it was quite interesting to watch because one of the awardee is a Nigerian. I love how Wikipedia appreciates its editors. This session challenged me greatly because, I look forward to doing more than I'm currently doing.

How did you connect with other people during Wikimania 2022? How did you celebrate at Wikimania 2022?During Wikimania 2022, I coonected with other people during Wikimania 2022 on the last day. My community organised a get together party, where I get to meet other editors across the country and shared ideas. We celebrated and had fun.
