From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

Wiki Education Expansion Campaign India, 2019 is an initiative being planned and lead by Women wikimedians of India focused on promotion of education by involving students and senior citizens in different language Wikis. Each participating community can organise offline edit-a-thons ad camps anytime during the year 2019-20 in their local language Wikipedias and create new content. Education when mixed with right amount of experiment, exposure and theory, helps in better understanding of concept and also enhances retention. It is believed that the active involvement of students with gadgets and the knowledge and experience of seniors will together help us create better content on wiki and will also provide the students a lead for better understanding of concepts. Anyone is welcome to join, plan and submit a proposal. The coordinators will help them in organising and evaluating the outcome.

This is the first iteration of this initiative and we will be doing some pilots and awareness sessions before organizing the camps and programs.

As a part of friendship and knowledge exchange, participants will receive a special Wiki gift from another participating community.

Get ready to be surprised! You never know which Wiki community will be sending you love!
