Logo WikiArabia ID : Localisation of SDGs related content on Wikipedia and its sister projects
Facilitators : James Moore200 Time block : Start :
Location : Duration : 25mins
Description :

According to Jimmy Wales, the motivation behind Wikipedia is to "imagine a world in which every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge." I think this extends beyond English language learners to include readers of all other languages into which Wikipedia articles have been translated. Learners who do not speak English should have access to information in a language that is both comfortable and simple for them to learn. There should be local entries in the current Wiki local languages that focus on the 17 SDGs by indigenous editors.

Theme : Sustainable Development, Localisation.
Key words : Localising SDGs, Local content on Wiki, inclusion, education, sustainability engagement.
Notes :
Intended outcomes :
  1. Wikimedians for Sustainable Development.
  2. Action through local language participation.
  3. United Nations Sustainable Development Goals Awareness.
  4. Global Goals Localisation.
