Most sessions I attended where inclusion based

QUEERING WIKIPEDIA- I think this session was focused on trying to include LGBTQ+ content and participation on ikipedia platforms and projects. it also broached on the issue of systematic harassment on the LGBTQ+ community and how to deal with the previously stated harassment. This is one of the wikimania sessions that where primarily focused on. WIKIGLAM IN LATAM- This session was focused on promoting wiki GLAM projects in Latin America. The speaker begins by stating her previously encountered issues in trying to promote GLAM projects such as lack of connections to GLAM institutions reticence toward working with them, lack of successful concrete regional projects to use as examples when trying to convince such institutions and so on she goes forward to state objective on how to overcome such obstacles which included increase in input resources. CENTERING RACE ANDD EQUALITY ON WIKIPEDIA- This session was aimed at creating an encouraging space for collective learning. that requires intentional behaviour. where user can hold themselves accountable to what they say. Art and feminism commits to knowledge sharing and creation on global scale. They also encourage their members so as to create a new way of being and doing things individually and collectively aimed create and improve an internal anti oppression system. A cultural shift from the initial white supremacy. The sessions also showed different art and feminism project worldwide the resources allocated and progress made.
