Questions to consider in your application

• Will you still come if you receive a partial scholarship or no scholarship at all?

No

• What are you hoping to achieve?

My participation in Wikicon Australia 2024 comes from my desire to learn from the experiences of others and to share my own once the opportunity is given to me. When I read your previous report, I saw a desire to share experiences across communities. The experience in Australia can further help in collaboration with communities in other countries and even allow them to benefit from such experience. I would love to meet and collaborate with other Australian Wikimedia volunteers.

• What skills are you hoping to learn?

I hope to learn more about technical and non-technical skills. Mainly, for technical skills, coding practices for Wikimedia tools. About non-technical skills, learn about australian experience on how to conduct Indigenious knowledge on projects.

• What are you hoping to teach?

As volunteer, I have some skills to share with people who need to learn more as neewbies or others. For example, Wikipedia, Commons, Wikiquote, WikiVoyage... I can also share my experience as mentor in african communities.

• What sessions have you proposed?

"Language, a vector of sustainable collaboration for communities."

In this communication, I wish to share my experience no longer as a mentor but that of an interpreter during events where language can very often be a barrier for communities of different languages, particularly English and French.

• Will your contributions help Australian First Nations content?

It might be possible. The Wikimedian skills that I wish to make available would be a point for newcomers. My shared experience around language as a vector of sustainable development for communities will affect knowledge by bringing together several languages ​​in this project.

• Will your contributions help Australian content?

It might be possible. My experience around language will affect knowledge by bringing together several languages ​​in Australian content.

• Are you from a minority group?

No

• Are you from regional or rural Australia?

No

• Are you a new editor?

No
