Overview

The Africa Wiki Women initiative is a transformative community effort aimed at addressing the underrepresentation of African women on Wikimedia projects by promoting their growth within and beyond the Wikimedia movement. The initiative ensures that African women's voices, achievements, and perspectives are recognised and represented throughout Wikimedia projects, guided by the principles of inclusivity, impact, and sustainability.

세계 최대의 온라인 백과사전이라는 의의를 갖는 위키백과라는 맥락에서 아프리카 여성들의 이야기와 기여는 현저히 부족합니다. 이러한 대표성 부족은 글로벌 인터넷 플랫폼과 콘텐츠가 주로 서구의 백인 남성이라는 소수에 의해 형성되는 더 넓은 디지털 환경의 일부입니다. 전 세계 인구의 58%가 인터넷을 이용하고 있으며, 이 중 75%가 글로벌 사우스 출신이고 45%가 여성임에도 불구하고, 디지털 영역은 여전히 서구적 시각이 지배하고 있습니다.

따라서 AWW 이니셔티브는 온라인 지식 창출에서 지속되는 성별 및 지역적 불균형에 대응합니다. 아프리카 전역에서 인터넷 접근성이 계속 확대되고 있음에도 불구하고, 여성들은 기여자와 콘텐츠 주체 모두에서 여전히 저조하게 나타납니다. 이러한 불균형은 위키백과와 같은 세계 최대의 자유 지식 플랫폼에서 아프리카 여성들의 역사, 혁신, 리더십의 가시성을 제한합니다.

포용성을 증진하기 위해, 아프리카 위키 여성은 여성들이 위키미디어 활동에 의미 있게 참여할 수 있는 기회를 제공합니다. 이는 멘토링, 훈련 편에디터톤을 통해 다양한 편집자와 기여자들을 지원하며, 여성들이 콘텐츠를 형성하고 다양한 이니셔티브를 주도하는 데 자신감과 능력을 느낄 수 있는 환경을 조성합니다.

또한 아프리카 위키 여성은 디지털 공간에서 아프리카 여성의 기술과 가시성을 강화하는 영향 중심 프로그램을 운영합니다. 편집, 연구, 디지털 리터러시 교육을 조직하고; 멘토링 네트워크를 지원하며; 다양한 분야에서 여성의 기여를 부각하는 참여를 장려합니다. 이러한 노력은 위키백과 및 관련 플랫폼에서 아프리카 여성에 관한 콘텐츠의 질과 양을 모두 개선하는 데 도움이 됩니다.

위키 사랑 여성 캠페인이 다층적인 국제적 활동을 통해 여성의 목소리를 부각시키는 데 초점을 맞춘 반면, 아프리카 위키 여성 이니셔티브는 위키미디언으로 자처하는 아프리카 여성들을 위한 지역 커뮤니티 역할을 합니다. 이는 성장을 촉진하고 성별 평등을 지지하는 남성들도 참여시켜, 그들이 아프리카와 전 세계에서 여성 위키미디언의 가시성을 어떻게 증진하고 향상시킬 수 있는지 교육하는 것을 목표로 합니다.

마지막으로, 지속 가능성은 아프리카 위키 여성의 사명의 핵심입니다. AWW는 영어권 및 프랑스어권 국가들의 강력한 커뮤니티를 구축했으며, 여성들의 위키미디어 생태계 내 지속적인 참여와 리더십을 지원하는 오래 지속되는 시스템을 만들기 위해 다양한 오픈 지식 커뮤니티들과 파트너십을 구축해 왔습니다.

Understanding the Gender Gap


  • 위키미디어 편집자의 성별 격차: 여성은 위키백과 편집자 중에서 과소 대표되어 있습니다. 잠재적인 이유로는 여성의 관심사가 간과된다는 인식, 편집 커뮤니티의 문화적 규범, 기술 능력이나 자신감과 같은 잠재적 장벽 등이 있습니다. CIS A2K 연구: 성별 격차 해소 및 다양성, 형평성, 포용성 의사소통 연구와 같은 연구 계획들이 이러한 과제들을 더 깊이 탐구했습니다.
  • 더 넓은 디지털 맥락: 지배적인 인터넷 지식과 콘텐츠는 소수(주로 서구, 백인, 남성)에 의해 생산됩니다. 글로벌 인터넷 플랫폼의 설계와 거버넌스는 여성, 유색인종, 글로벌 사우스를 거의 대표하지 않습니다. 전 세계 인구의 58%가 인터넷에 접속하고 있으며, 온라인 사용자의 75%가 글로벌 사우스 출신이고 45%가 여성임에도 불구하고, 디지털 영역은 서구 세계의 시각이 지배하고 있습니다.
  • 위키백과의 콘텐츠 표현: 연구는 위키백과에서 여성 중심 기사의 양과 질을 탐구할 수 있습니다. 편집자 간의 성별 격차는 콘텐츠 내 여성의 표현에 영향을 미칠 수 있습니다.
  • 위키미디어 내 커뮤니티 역학: 위키미디어 편집 커뮤니티 내 여성들의 경험을 이해하는 것이 중요합니다. 여기에는 동료 편집자들과의 상호작용, 그들이 받는 지원 또는 지원 부족, 리더십 역할에서 직면하는 장애물이 포함됩니다. 여성들을 위한 공정한 지원 방안을 파악하고 촉진하여 그들의 대표성과 참여를 강화할 수 있습니다.
  • 위키백과 콘텐츠의 성별 편향: 문서 내 성별 묘사에 존재할 수 있는 편향성은 연구가 필요한 주제입니다. 고려해야 할 측면으로는 사용된 언어, 전통적으로 남성 중심 분야에서의 대표성, 그리고 이러한 편향이 콘텐츠의 질과 정확성에 미치는 전반적인 영향 등이 있습니다.
