Endorsment from —Gwanki^📧

The Hausa Community Wiki For Human Rights Campaign 2024 proposal is a vital initiative that seeks to empower the Hausa-speaking community by increasing awareness and understanding of human rights issues related to the environment. By addressing the challenge of limited access to information about human rights and environmental issues in the Hausa language, this project aims to foster a positive impact on both local communities and the broader Wikimedia movement.

The chosen strategies, including organizing writing contests, conducting training sessions, and hosting Wikidatathons, are well-developed and tailored to effectively engage participants in contributing high-quality content in Hausa language related to human rights and the environment. The team's extensive experience and dedication, as evidenced by their successful involvement in previous Wiki For Human Rights campaigns, ensure the project's effectiveness and sustainability.

Furthermore, the project's focus on bridging content knowledge gaps, particularly in the areas of climate change and sustainability, aligns with important Movement Strategy 2030 recommendations, such as increasing the sustainability of the Wikimedia movement. By involving underrepresented linguistic communities and fostering collaboration within the Wikimedia community, this proposal contributes to the broader goals of knowledge equity and inclusivity.

The project's emphasis on learning and evaluation, with clear metrics outlined to assess impact and effectiveness, demonstrates a commitment to accountability and continuous improvement. Leveraging insights from past proposals and building on existing partnerships within the Wikimedia community, this project is poised to make a significant contribution to advancing human rights awareness and environmental advocacy in Northern Nigeria.

Overall, the Hausa Community Wiki For Human Rights Campaign 2024 proposal is coherent, well-developed, and aligned with both community priorities and broader movement objectives. With a dedicated team, robust strategies, and a clear focus on impact evaluation, this project has the potential to drive positive change and empower Hausa-speaking communities to participate meaningfully in the Wikimedia movement. --—Gwanki^📧 10:05, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
