Notification: Letter of intent for WikiLinguila User Group
Dear affiliates and members of the Wikimedia community,
We are pleased to reach out to inform you about the request from our collective, WikiLinguila, which aims to become a Wikimedia user group dedicated to the promotion and preservation of the four national languages of the Democratic Republic of Congo and their cultures. Our goal is to strengthen the digital presence of these languages by creating free and collaborative content, while organizing events and workshops (such as WikiForMotherTongue, WikiNkento, and Wiki100Impact) to raise awareness of cultural and linguistic issues.
Based in the Democratic Republic of Congo, we are currently active in three cities (Kinshasa-Lingála, Matadi-Kikôngɔ, and Mbuji-Mayi-Tshiluba), aligned with the country’s major linguistic regions. WikiLinguila also plans to expand its reach through joint activities at the regional level, particularly in the Pool region, in partnership with Angola and the Republic of Congo, where these languages are also spoken.
For more details, please see our letter of intent.
