| How will this session be beneficial for the communities in the region of CEE?
Not only have university students written thousands upon thousands of lengthy Wikipedia articles in Estonia, but universities have also partnered with us to promote Wikipedia nationwide. In more recent years we have expanded that into other levels of education and are now even officials partners with the Ministry of Education and Research. If a small chapter can make that happen, then everyone can. | |||
