My inputs

I participated in several workshops

• WikiResearch in Africa: Situation and Challenges
• Wiki Loves Africa, now and beyond
• Making Wiki Loves Monuments thrive across Africa

Participant Connections and Outcome

This is my first Wiki Indaba, I had the chance to meet many people. I also met the user pamputt with whom I exchanged a lot about the Wiktionary project. A rewarding meeting that allowed me to launch a pilot phase of the Wiktionary project in my community. I was also able to record audio pronunciations of words in Baoulé with Benoît Prieur on one of his projects.

This is my first Wiki Indaba and I am very happy to have participated.
