SLU/Wikipedian-in-Residence

A Wikipedian in Academy (more commonly referred to as Wikipedian in Residence) is a role which aims to serve as a liaison between the organization and the Wikimedia community to promote a mutually beneficial cooperation.

The Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences has generously invited Arild Vågen to become a Wikipedian in Academy at the university. Arild has been a Wikipedia contributor for over four years and a board member of the Swedish Wikimedia chapter (Wikimedia Sweden) since 2012. He has been involved with several of Wikimedia Sverige's GLAM collaborations and has a big network within the Wikipedia community.
