Basque Wikimedians User Group/Strategy/2024-2027
This of here Basque Wikilarien the Culture Association 2024-2027 strategies done he is.
Fulfulde

Basque Wikilarien the Culture Association in 2016 he created and from 2017 forward many dirulaguntza he has had to develop his projects. Dirulaguntzarik The biggest the Language Politics of Basque Government Sailburuordetzak emandakoa he has been. To this gratitude from 2018 today until the day the Education Programme that lengthens developing we have been able to, among others, and the association the fixed workers he has had after worm. from 2020 Navarra's Government, Euskarabidearen by means of, in Navarra to do the different projects dirulaguntza he has given to us, there, with the broken, the option to contract an other worker he has given to us that the. Dirulaguntza This egonkortu we have and, therefore, right now lanaldi no-in the whole a worker we have in Navarra with education connection they do not have that to do the projects. in 2021 begun and until 2024 Erasmus+ a project we are developing, Ireland and Frisiako with the associations at the same time.
In the/2022 2023 course Ikusgela we have put in the march, video pedagogical the available sareratzeko the big project. To do this project dirulaguntza the new we have got EJren HPStik, and some video bunches out of mission the funding also we have got, be EIMAko katalogoaren by means of, or the new partner by looking for gidoigintza to ease the expenditures.
Now six years we did not have amesten in this state we would exist that also. This structure the option he has given to us to do the big project, especially the Education Programme we have called that the. Of this programme baitan 5.000 students of the universities but more they have taken part, and close to 10.000.000 words they have increased to him by Basque Wikipediari, in the interval necessary to the articles of the big. Wikipedia And having linked the education they are , we believed, and our hypothesis he has showed: the good contents we have, between of the agents of the education the prestige we have won, and to do the pedagogical action Wikimediak which the platforms of the free knowledge the power that have we have showed. In this interval Txikipedia we have created, aitzindaria the project that is for the new publics. Ikusgelan Four groups we have created already, and we have got some of the videos in some other languages offer, from the production by Basque initiated. In the education Programme we identified the articles of the big importance the marked improvement they have had: 230% wide they are now, 29 millions karaktere with more. This if little he was, in the last two years thanks to done to the initiatives, Wikipedia all being the 10.000 article of the necessary he of the three languages that has a we are and, in two years, 12 posts we have done up until the languages rankinean, the biggest rise he has had that the language. Wikipedia All being of the 1.000 articles of the necessary in the list also marked we have done up, to all 18 posts, and nowadays in two lists we are first 20 Wikipedien between.

And what we've done in the last four years is not limited to that, of course. We've established relationships with a number of knowledge institutions. In addition to our work with universities, we have also reached agreements with the Summer Basque University to release textbooks, or offer pioneering scholarships for research in Digital Humanities. We've worked with several museums, like Soinuene, to expand and release knowledge about folk music. Or the Museum of Oats, to put some of the most important pieces of this artist's work into the hands of everyone. We have participated in the WikiLovesMonuments competition, upgrading and organizing a database of all protected elements in the Basque Autonomous Region. We have also released geographic information on all the megalithic monuments in Navarre. We have worked with the Elhuyar Foundation to contribute to technological innovation, but also to make the Elia translator available to wikilars. We've worked with organizations in the Northern Basque Country, giving talks. We've done radio shows about Wikimedia, and it's become a commonplace for us to communicate with the media.
EWKEko Many members WikiEmakumeok the initiative they have pushed, especially the active they of Durango and Oiartzun that are with the groups. The to underline he is in these groups they of those that take part the majority the women they are ,, wikilarien between nowadays still also gender that exists arrakala txikiagotzen having been the interesting contribution. Thanks to to their tireless job by Basque Wikipedian the biography of the women 26% but more they are, and erlatiboki if little biography we have also, 16.000 women but more they are gathered, often sakontasun with the big. WikiEmakumeok The group, however, they are not organikoki EWKEren the initiative.
Wikiliburu Some also we have pushed: Uliako the nature the that gathers, the on Cookery or journey of Basque Country-guide, by example.
We have also established, strengthened and stabilized international relations. We have attended numerous international conferences and meetings, including Wikimania, Wikimedia Hackathon, Celtic Knot or Iberocoop conferences. We supported the Wikimedia&Education conference, organized the first edition in San Sebastian, with the support of the Wikimedia Foundation, and attended the second one in Belgrade. We have established relationships with other organizations, such as Amical Wikimedia, Wikimedia España and several wikilas that are in a few languages. A member of the EWKE was involved in the discussions to define the WMF strategy, and we were part of the Fun Committee. We have been involved in initiatives and discussions around small languages, and we have helped several languages in Africa become automated templates.
This all possible he has been wikilarien by means of the job and a strong structure we have got because. However, if we have the difficulty. By means of the public institutions got dirulaguntzak they have not grown in the last five years, and dirulaguntza the new if we have got also (Erasmus+, by example), the rise of the cost of the life the big influence he has had in the possible education of our projects. In the last year we have been unable to further that the core of the project the initiatives that go doing, and a lot of abandoning we have needed budget murriztuaren by result. Some examples by giving:

- It's no longer possible to offer scholarships for digital humanities. The result of this scholarship was the creation of the Ikusgela, Be[di]rada (a didactic unit for teaching philosophy subjects through Wikipedia) project or Emartistak (a catalogue of female artists), among others. We can't afford the cost anymore.
- Already he is not possible with EAE's museums work, with the Education Programme entirely the consistent he is not because and dirulaguntzaren baitan already he is not because place to this.
- In the last three years with the Schools of the Basque Country done Txikipedia the project to edit, where every year 1.000 students but more they take part that, he is unable to more growing, he is not because money the management the new educator that will do to take. Without money, the project reduce beharko he is in the next year.
- I can't keep up with international relations. The possibility of this reduction is limited by the grant from the Government, but even if it exists, the options are very limited. EWKE does not have the funds to pay for such a trip, and we would be dependent on WMF's offer of scholarships (there was no scholarship to go to Wikimedia this year, for example). We couldn't even have an international conference.
- It's also hard to do competitions that have worked so well so far. Even if we have a small budget, we should cut back on that. We don't even have the option to organize initiatives like WikiLovesMonuments or WikiLovesEarth, if we have to give a reward.
- Dirulaguntza The additional asking to the administration the only worker that we have he drowns, in the of same time by a lot of the bigger documentation managing he because needs. Always he is option to present to the new announcements, but request of these announcements, justification, documentation and the continuation the time that needs to manage we do not have personnel.
- Worker bakoitzak money aid to a specific he answers to him as, very the difficult he is to us from there take out and the additional job do. In this moment in the Basque Autonomous Community we are unable to GLAM action doing by means of the workers, and, kontrara, in Navarra we are unable to having linked to the Education of the exercises doing.
What Getting we want?
In the 2024-2027 interval in the former four years had the education egonkortu we will need, growing following to be able to. In now's state possible we have action with a minimum number follow, but the impossible he is the education, and up to now done a lot of initiatives also outside leaving beharko we would have, by result of the rise of the prices. Therefore, We do not have change of direction do: we will follow we were doing that with the, but more efficient.
