We're starting the Viquiprojecte:Muixeranga on Valencian culture.

Highlighted activities[edit]

GLAM projects[edit]

Date: 3th May.
To Highlight: The core of our local group started Viquiprojecte:Muixeranga. For two months, and linking to the Ethnological Museum's exhibitions, we will edit on the Valencian Human Towers. We contacted Ptinphusmia to get some info about Igbo's Atilogwu dance, and to have some collaboration with wikimedians from other parts of the world, which was another of our initial objectives for this year's activities.

Educative projects[edit]

Place: Universitat d'Alacant - Sede de Elda.
To Highlight: Three sessions were hosted the the University of Alacant campus in Elda. This is important because it's the Spanish-speaking Land of Valencia, so we broke a little bit the internal frontiers that exist in our Region. We used Catalan Wikipedia as the main project for the course, even despite the students edited mainly in Spanish. In june a new session will be made focused on photos and Wikimedia Commons.

Also, this second Educative project means that we have already reached our objective for the year, even despite that next month we will be starting a new Edu-project.

Gender gap activities[edit]

Place: Business and Professional Women's València.
To Highlight: Last friday in May we hold a workshop, half in-person, half online, for the local branch of the Business and Professional Women's Foundation.
