Event Name[edit]

Participant Connections[edit]

  • Stephane Coillet-Matillon
    Stephane is the Chief Executive Officer of Kiwix and he made a very compelling presentation on State of the Kiwix Project. I connected hugely to the great possibilities of the brand and has made a decision to become a Kiwix ambassador in my country.
  • Fayçal Rezkallah
    Fayçal is a photographer and trainer in photography. His creative and artistic approach was a huge delight and he took time to teach me a few but highly relevant tips on photography.

Outcome[edit]

  • I was greatly inspired by the immense possibilities that the Kiwix project has especially in my country Nigeria with low internet penetration. I have thus made the decision to become a Kiwix ambassador in my country.
  • To my delight, the next WikiIndaba will be holding in my city, Abuja, Nigeria and I intend to volunteer my time and resources in ensuring that it will be a value adding event.
