This is the annual plan of the activities of PhilWiki Community for 2022.

Programmes

Advocacy

The Philippine Wikimedia Community User Group has initiated cost-effective, creative, and innovative projects to spur interest and promote Wikipedia online and offline among individuals. In the past, its members have appeared in a number of local media programs and have been invited or attended fora and conferences to share about Wikimedia projects. The user group has also engaged in activities with different organizations that share a common interest such as the Wiki Loves Art mural painting with virtual artists. PH-WC also conducted a stickering challenge as part of the upcoming 20th birthday of Wikipedia where participants encouraged random people to get their cellphones stickered with Wikipedia logo.

The objective of the Advocacy program is to engage in various activities for the promotion of free knowledge using different platforms. As part of its inclusive and pluralistic focus, the organization is currently presiding over various advocacy programs aimed at reaching out to marginalized groups in the Philippines. The SMART objectives of the Advocacy program are:

to sticker 100 laptops, tablets or cellphones with Wikipedia logo and other stickers promoting Wikimedia projects
to feature at least 1 sister project or Wikimedia related news on PhilWiki Community Facebook page every month

Advocacy Program is managed by a committee that creates and supports activities related to the promotion of free knowledge both online and offline.

Steven Fung is the Chair of Advocacy Committee (2020-present). He is one of the founders of the user group and had been involved in the Wikimedia movement since 2007. He had served as Vice President and the Vice Chair of PhilWiki's Board of Trustees. He had also tenured the positions of Auditor and Overseas Chapter Representative, having represented the user group at the 2018 Wikimedia Conference held in Berlin, Germany. Ramon Olaño, Jr. held the chairmanship of the Advocacy committee from 2019-2020.

Diversity

PH-WC aims to engage a diverse participation to address the gender and knowledge gaps being a free, open, and vibrant organization of Filipino content editors.
