Over View

The #WikiforHumanRights project aims to increase awareness and understanding of human rights issues related to the environment among the Hausa-speaking community. Key focus areas include environmental protection and pollution reduction. We address challenges like limited access to information in Hausa and the lack of representation of these topics on Hausa Wikipedia.

Goals

1. Build Knowledge in Hausa: Create and disseminate content about human rights and the environment in the Hausa language.
2. Empower Local Participants: Train participants to contribute content related to human rights and the environment to Wikimedia projects.
3. Enhance Wikidata in Hausa: Document local plant and animal species on Wikidata in the Hausa language.

Approach

• Content Creation: Develop high-quality articles on human rights and environmental issues in Hausa.
• Training Sessions: Conduct workshops to teach participants how to edit and contribute to Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects.

Organizers

• Smshika - Project Lead and Organizer
• Mahuta - Facilitator
• Gwanki - Facilitator
• Hauwau sulaiman - Facilitator

Impact Assessment

The project's impact will be evaluated in the following areas:

1. Article Quality and Quantity: Track improvements in human rights and environmental articles on Hausa Wikipedia.
2. Participant Skills: Assess the proficiency of participants in Wikipedia editing before and after training.
3. Awareness of Wikipedia: Measure increased awareness and engagement with Wikipedia among Hausa-speaking communities.
4. Environmental Rights Awareness: Evaluate changes in participants' knowledge and attitudes toward environmental rights through surveys and feedback.
