Education is short for the Wikipedia Education Program, including all the activities and projects the Wikimedia movement does together with educational institutions. The idea behind the Wikipedia Education Program is simple: educators and students around the world contribute to Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects in an academic setting. We nurture, grow and improve the effectiveness of Wikipedia Education Programs so that they have a positive impact on Wikimedia projects. We encourage high quality contributions, foster gender diversity, and promote Global South participation. We believe that Wikipedia belongs in education!
See the newsletter This Month in Education (about the newsletter/archives/newsroom) for information on current education projects.
