CEE/Newsletter/Newsroom/Minigrant initiative by empowering the Rrëshen community in Albania
On November 25-26, 2024, with the support of a minigrant provided by the Wikimedians of Albanian Language User Group, a 2-day event was held in Rrëshen, Albania.
Organized by Arbërora Leti, an English teacher from the local community, the event gathered students and teachers to learn how to edit and improve articles on Wikipedia in Albanian.
All the participants edited 16 articles enriching the content, contributing to the growth of free knowledge, and promoting gender equality by editing content that reflects diversity and inclusion across all social groups.
This 2-day activity helped students develop new skills, and build more transferable skills to use in class and community.
By providing minigrants to small local communities, WoALUG encourages collaboration to contribute to the growth of open knowledge.
