Wiki-Green Conference 2024/Welcome
The Wiki-Green Conference is an annual event that provides a platform for discourse on the detrimental effects of Climate Change and pollution on the rights and freedoms of Ghanaians. Additionally, the conference explores the potential of utilizing open projects such as Wikimedia projects to raise awareness and identify potential solutions to these pressing issues. The conference serves as an important forum for academics, researchers, and practitioners to deliberate on these critical issues and share knowledge and insights.
This year's Wiki-Green Conference will focus on the theme "Projecting Green Citizenship".
