From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki


Wiki_awareness_ORO

Overview[edit]

Oro is a town in Irepodun local government area in Kwara State having over 3,000 people of all ages residing in that area.Having being an active inhabitant of that area for a year ,it was glaring that the inhabitants including students,youths and professionals alike do not have proper digital literacy skills, knowledge sharing and community engagement. This project is targeted at the widespread effective use of Wikipedia and it's sister projects among the residents of Oro .Wikipedia, the world's largest online encyclopedia, has revolutionized access to information and serves as a valuable educational resource. By introducing Wikipedia to the community, we aim to empower and train the people of Oro with the tools and skills necessary to access, contribute, and utilize this vast knowledge repository. Also,By leveraging the power of Wikipedia, we can bridge the information gap and empower the residents of Oro to become active contributors to the world's collective knowledge.

Objectives [edit]
