Description - The Africa Wiki Challenge is an online campaign that is aimed at generating African-related content on Wikipedia. The annual contest has been running for four years with each year carrying a specific theme. The competition is aimed at improving the statistics of content about Africa on Wikipedia and its sister projects

This year, the theme is Educate Africa: Nurturing Minds for the 21st Century, is in line with this year’s African Union Day theme and is also a part of the African Union’s Agenda 2063. The African Union, under the Agenda 2063 seeks to create revitalized, high-quality, and unified educational systems that meet the needs of Africa, generate acceptable attitudes, values, knowledge, and skills, and support the continent's participation in the international economy of knowledge. With the Africa Wiki Challenge 2024, our objective is to call attention to and recognize the diverse educational perspectives in Africa, encouraging the sharing of information and expertise through engaging content contributions.
