Event:Feminism and Folklore 2024 Advocacy Workshop 2

The Feminism & Folklore Campaign, under the Wiki Loves Folklore umbrella, invites you to its second sensitization workshop on the topic: Heritage through the Lens: celebrating Women and Folklore on Wikimedia Commons.

This workshop seeks to unite and empower enthusiasts like you who are passionate about celebrating and preserving the rich heritage of women’s stories and folklore. It provides a unique space to strengthen our community bonds, exchange valuable insights, and collectively explore how to create a lasting impact through our campaign. Together, we’ll learn practical skills, share strategies, and inspire one another to elevate the visibility and significance of cultural heritage within our communities.

Objectives

• Introduce Wikimedia Commons: Overview of its role in documenting women’s stories and folklore.
• Equip Uploading Skills: Teach participants how to upload images and media, covering licensing and best practices.
• Promote Cultural Documentation: Encourage participants to start capturing images and stories from their communities.
• Strengthen Connections: Foster collaboration and support among participants in the campaign.
• Outline Next Steps: Provide clear action items and resources for continued engagement.

We welcome participants to bring their diverse perspectives and stories as we delve into the cultural richness of folklore through a feminist lens. Together, we’ll explore how these narratives shape our understanding of identity and community.
