Me convertí en wikimedista en 2017, cofundé un grupo de usuarios en 2018, me convertí en wikimedista residente y desde entonces he llevado a cabo varios proyectos tanto con las comunidades Wikimedia como tratando de hacer crecer nuevas comunidades. Soy una persona que cree firmemente en el voluntariado, en la organización de la comunidad, en la diversidad y la inclusión y en hacer que el conocimiento sea libremente accesible para todos. Mi carrera profesional se ha centrado en la gestión de proyectos y programas, la estrategia organizativa, la traducción, la enseñanza y la tutoría, la gestión de la comunidad, la gestión de la divulgación.
Si se me da la oportunidad, mis objetivos son: abogar por la diversidad en sus múltiples formas, incluyendo el contenido, los editores, los entusiastas, etc., más apoyo a las organizaciones comunitarias con el fin de proporcionar modelos más equitativos para la promoción, la creación de las capacidades, la asignación de recursos, etc., ser una fuerte defensora de las Recomendaciones de la Estrategia del Movimiento, especialmente los números: 1 (Aumentar la sostenibilidad de nuestro movimiento), 6 (Invertir en el desarrollo de habilidades y liderazgo), 8 (Identificar los temas de impacto). | |

| Experiencias vividas en el mundo. Nos interesa especialmente leer sobre las experiencias vividas en las regiones de África, Asia Meridional, Asia Oriental y Sudeste Asiático y el Pacífico, y América Latina y el Caribe. Creemos que la experiencia en estas regiones podría ayudar a ampliar la capacidad de la junta para cumplir el objetivo de la estrategia del movimiento de una participación más equitativa, aunque reconocemos que otras experiencias también pueden aportar contribuciones importantes.

Although I haven’t lived in other regions, I was born in Nigeria, live and work in the African region, one of my experiences is the knowledge gap. Wikipedia for example has more information about Paris, a city in France than Africa as a whole. Also, coming from a marginalized community in Nigeria whose language is predicted by UNESCO as an endangered Language has better shaped my mind to understand and relate to some of the challenges faced by some Communities in the region. I’m a strong supporter of the Movement Strategy Recommendations, especially numbers: 1 (Increase the Sustainability of Our Movement), 6 (Invest in Skills and Leadership Development), 8 (Identify Topics for Impact), and try as much as possible to uphold them in my region. One example is the volunteer community in Mozambique which I’m mentoring and have helped to put their Makhuwa Language Wikipedia into the incubator and support them in becoming knowledge producers. Other projects I’ve been involved in which promotes the aforementioned Movement Strategy recommendations in Africa are: AfroCuration Mozambique 1.0, AfroCuration Mozambique 2.0, AfroCuration Zimbabwe, AfroCuration South Africa, AfroCuration Event with African Leadership Academy. These have further deepened my experience working in the region. With a younger population than other continents, there's still a lot of knowledge gap in the African continent which makes it a place with great opportunity for the Wikimedia Movement to thrive. If given the opportunity, I would use my experiences to help accomplish this. | |
| Fluidez cultural y lingüística con regiones e idiomas adicionales a tu región e idioma nativo. La conciencia intercultural ayuda a tender puentes en nuestra comunidad multicultural. (250 palabras como máximo) |
My background as a graduate of Foreign Languages & Literatures, as a translator, who is also currently a Masters in Project Management Student at Rome Business School (where I'm learning Italian), a language activist has further opened my mind to people and national cultures. I'm a language enthusiast, one who appreciates languages and cultures and which has helped me become more accommodating and open to learning. I'm a native Igbo Language Speaker, I speak fluent English, I can read and write good French and German but have basic to mid speaking ability. As a startup founder of Smarter Languages Hub (a language services start up which helps to bridge the language gap), I have taught and networked with people from various continents and countries. In the various Wiki projects I have organized, I've also got help from volunteers from different Wiki communities in South Africa, Portugal, Brazil, Tanzania, Ghana, Italy, Israel and so forth. This further demonstrates my open mindedness in working and collaborating with people from different walks of life. | |

As a Nigerian, I have experiences regarding censorship and repression but I would prefer not to include details. I'm an advocate for Human Rights especially in the area of Human Trafficking where I've worked with Devatop Centre For Africa Development and A-TIPSOM (Action Against Trafficking in Persons and Smuggling of Migrants in Nigeria) to create awareness of human trafficking on Igbo Wikipedia in other to make the knowledge accessible. As a member of the Wiki Loves Women Focus Group, I organize and host events to bridge the internet gender gap.
