Takeaways – choose 3 specific Wikimania sessions you attended and describe your key take-aways per session.

I participated in this session as a speaker on a panel discussion about DEI in Wiki Loves Monuments. What I learnt from my fellow panelist is that to achive diversity we can also diversify the prizes at country level, like a prize for women, a prize per region, a prize for monuments that have never been captured before, a prize for new contributors, etc.
