Group meetings

First meeting 2017

This meeting was a great opportunity for the major number of the Wikimedia TN user group to discuss the future of the community in Tunisia to meet in real life. As part of this meeting we have established a program for the group in Tunisia for the next year. Also the meeting included training sessions about how to apply for a grant and how to use evaluation tools, strategies workshops and a brainstorming for new ideas and projects.

A lot of decision was made as part of this meeting, especially:

Every year, we will Organise an annual meeting of Wikimedia TN (in December or January), as part of this meeting we will evaluate our activities and we will prepare the future program and projects.
Postponement the idea of the chapter for the next two years.
Wikimedia TN User Group will host the next editions of WikiIndaba (2018), Wikiarabia (2019) and WikiConvention (2020)

Wiki Loves

Wiki Loves Africa 2016/2017

Wiki Loves Africa (WLA) is an annual contest where anyone across Africa can contribute media that is relevant to their experience to Wikimedia Commons for use on Wikipedia and other project websites of the Wikimedia Foundation. Wiki Loves Africa encourages participants to contribute media (photographs, video and audio) that illustrate the specific theme for that year. Each year the theme changes and is chosen by the community from a few universal, visually rich and culturally specific topics (for example, markets, rites of passage, festivals, public art, cuisine, natural history, urbanity, daily life, notable persons, etc).

The theme for the 2014 photo contest was Wiki Loves Africa Cuisine. In 2015 the theme focused on Wiki Loves Africa Cultural Fashion and Adornment. In 2016, the chosen theme is Music and Dance.
