| Description :
The AfroCine Project is a multi-country, multi-faceted WikiProject which started in 2018 and is aimed at encouraging the contribution of content that relates to the historical and contemporary cinema, theatre, and arts sectors of several African countries, the Caribbean and the diaspora to Wikimedia projects. Since the founding of the project, three major campaigns of "Months of African Cinema" have happened, with over 5,000 Wikipedia articles created so far, in more than 20 languages, and with many events organized in different parts of the continent and beyond. In this session, we'd be showcasing the successes achieved so far, and also be inviting local organizers from across the continent to share their experiences. |
