Grants:TPS/Nora56kb/FOSSASIA
This Wikimedia Participation Support request was not funded. Reasons have been communicated with the request submitter on the Discussion page.
Proposed participation[edit]
I am an open culture / public domain activist. Recently we realized a coup to overcome restrictions on data of cultural heritage. (Nefertiti Hack) Hence, I am highly interested in open infrastructures to provide open access culture Institutions (GLAM) in cooperation with Wikimedia. I will be giving a talk of 20 min. Thereby I will point out ideas of public domain for open culture. In the second half we will talk about of infrastructures, discuss WikiGLAM and strategies to reclaim the museum an public space. We hope to be able to improve our conception by the perspective of people at FOSSASIA.
Goal and expected impact[edit]
As a result of my talk, I expect to encourage some fellows FOSSASIA to discuss further these ideas. We hope to find synergies with other projects. UNESCO will be part of FOSSASIA, hence, we hope to meet them in order to discuss our ideas and get feedback. We expect to activate the artifact at FOSSASIA and raise awareness on the issue of open culture and win more people to become active within their community.
