Endorsement from Ibrahim Sani Mustapha (talk)

As a Co-organizer of the proposal, I am proud to support this unique and much-needed initiative. It is the first project in our Hausa Wikimedia community to directly address the inclusion and representation of people with disabilities in free knowledge spaces.

This proposal reflects a strong commitment to equity, accessibility, and community empowerment. I am fully dedicated to ensuring its success and will actively contribute my skills and effort throughout its implementation. Together, we aim to make the Hausa Wikimedia Projects more inclusive and reflective of all voices in our society.

I strongly support this project. Because this is a timely and innovative effort that gives visibility and voice to people with disabilities within the Hausa Wikimedia community, something that has never been done before.

Not funded

Hello A Sulaiman Z, thanks for submitting your Rapid Fund request. We appreciate your willingness to contribute to the Wikimedia Movement.

We have completed the initial review of your application and we decided to not fund it. We made this decision considering the following reason:

• The proposal seems to focus mainly on event organization.

We are aware that your team has experience in Wikimedia events organising, however our suggestion is that you re-submit another application for next round with a proposal that could benefit from more details on content creation and community engagement.
