Takeaways – choose 3 specific Wikimania sessions you attended and describe your key take-aways per session.

I attended the session by Omorodion1 on Climate Change, movement strategy lightning talk, and I am a wikimedian, not an accountant session.

My key takeaway from the session on climate was the need to responsibility of our environment and how our habits is making the earth inhabitable and how we can better take care of it.

On the session on Fiscal sponsor I was able to get a better understanding of what a fiscal sponsor is and why they are relevant to the grant making process.

Finally, the movement strategy session exposed me to some of the exciting works that wikimedians are doing especially helping the local languages that are spoken by a few people.

How did you connect with other people during Wikimania 2022? How did you celebrate at Wikimania 2022?

I was able to connect with other people especially on YouTube through the chat section and had interactions with some amazing wikimedians.
