Le Togo, riche en pratiques agricoles et culinaires, manque d’une documentation visuelle significative qui met en valeur les étapes clés de ses chaînes alimentaires, de la production agricole jusqu’à la consommation. Sur le plan agricole, le pays est caractérisé par une diversité pédoclimatique qui conditionne non seulement les espèces cultivées mais aussi le choix des outils, des travaux de préparation du sol, des fertilisants utilisés ainsi que des pratiques récolte, de conservation, et de transformation en mets locaux. On retrouve généralement cette diversité dans la zone Nord et la zone Sud du pays. Cette lacune en termes de contenus empêche la reconnaissance et la valorisation de ce patrimoine unique, tant au niveau local qu’international. Les contenus wikimedia sur les pratiques alimentaires togolaises et leur lien avec la diversité agricole manquent d’informations riches et fiables. Cette insuffisance réduit la compréhension des savoir-faire locaux et des approches durables utilisées dans les communautés rurales. Pour combler ces lacunes, l’édition 2025 de Wiki Loves Africa au Togo adoptera une approche structurée :Organiser des expéditions pour capturer des images représentant chaque étape, de la culture et récolte des produits agricoles à leur transformation et consommation; travailler avec des agriculteurs, artisans et chefs locaux pour garantir une représentation authentique et respectueuse des pratiques, sensibiliser et former les contributeurs locaux sur la photographie et la mise en ligne des contenus sur Wikimedia Commons; intégrer les images collectées dans les articles existants et créer de nouveaux contenus documentant les spécificités alimentaires et agricoles togolaises.
