Learn from each other with linked data – We're developing a Wikibase instance for the Wikimedia movement's activities
Alicia Fagerving, André Costa

The Wikimedia movement needs a better way of managing information on what we have done – our partnerships, documents, events and conferences. Wikimedia Sverige has been developing a custom Wikibase instance for this purpose, and now we're inviting the community to test it in practice with their own affiliate's data.

Open Knowledge for Public Good: UN–Wikimedia collaboration for open access (day-long event)
Eric Luth, John Cummings, Alicia Fagerving

The Content Partnerships Hub has forged dynamic collaborations with UN agencies including FAO, WIPO, and UNESCO, facilitating dialogue between intergovernmental organizations (IGOs) and the Wikimedia movement. Over the past year, our efforts have yielded invaluable insights into prospective partnerships. Join us for a program track where we unveil these insights, engage in collaborative brainstorming with Wikimedians to enhance and expand them, and culminate with a hands-on edit-a-thon empowering Wikimedians to translate these insights into action.

The Helpdesk at the Content Partnerships Hub – Wikimedians providing hands-on support to each other
André Costa, Eric Luth, Alicia Fagerving

We propose a session focusing on developing the next steps of the Helpdesk of the Content Partnerships Hub – with a focus on how it can improve capacity building in the GLAMwiki space. Through the Helpdesk you can request support for your content partnerships and through the working groups you can share your expertise by jointly responding to the many requests posted for the Helpdesk.
