Avec la campagne 1Lib1Ref 2026 au Togo, nous voulons améliorer la qualité, la fiabilité et la visibilité des connaissances liées au Togo sur Wikipédia. Les défis majeurs restent le manque de sources fiables, la faible représentativité du contenu local et la collaboration limitée entre les bibliothèques et les projets Wikimedia. Pour y répondre, nous organiserons deux ateliers de formation et un atelier d’éditathon à Lomé. Ces activités permettront aux bibliothécaires et contributeurs locaux d’apprendre à repérer, citer et ajouter des références fiables sur Wikipédia. En parallèle, nous développerons des partenariats avec des institutions culturelles afin d’enrichir les articles sur le Togo et de renforcer la participation collective au savoir libre.
