AvoinGLAM

AvoinGLAM is a working group based in Finland, promoting open access to cultural heritage. The group focuses on exploring the opportunities and barriers that small heritage communities or forms of heritage face on Wikimedia projects and online, and seek solutions to these challenges. To highlight this approach, we have interpreted the acronym GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives & Museums) as Global Languages, Art & Memory. We promote co-creation through collaborative event such as cultural hackathons, and participate in global policy efforts.

Wiki in Africa

Wiki in Africa, a voluntary non-profit organisation registered in South Africa, is a financial and legal structure that operates global initiatives in support of the WikiAfrica movement. Wiki in Africa empowers and activates citizens of Africa, its diaspora, and other underrepresented populations to collect, develop and contribute content and perspectives under a free license and engage in global knowledge systems by encouraging access to, awareness of, and support for open knowledge, the open movement and the Wikimedia projects, working in collaboration with like-minded organisations. Our GLAM and content partnership projects include, among others, Wiki Loves Africa and Africa Environment.

Wikimedia UK

Wikimedia UK is the UK chapter for the Wikimedia movement. The chapter has a long track record of working with content holders, particularly in the cultural heritage sector but also in areas such as health information and climate - this is across Wikimedia projects, with deep knowledge of working with Wikidata. We are particularly experienced in establishing Wikimedians in Residence, which act as change makers in world-leading institutions such as the Bodleian Library, British Library, University of Edinburgh, Global Systems Institute at the University of Exeter and Wellcome Collection, among many others. Every year, there are well over a billion views of content released to Wikimedia through our partnerships.
