Mark your calendars! Singapore is calling. Wikimania 2023 will run from 16-19 August, in person and online.
This edition’s theme is: “Diversity. Collaboration. Future.”
Diversity. Wikimania will be an opportunity to showcase ESEAP (Wikimedians of East, South East Asia and the Pacific) as an example of inclusion: different volunteer groups, individuals, and affiliates, at different stages of development, different cultures but closely involved in an equitable way.
Collaboration. As a distributed growth mechanism, Wikimania will be a way to learn and share new knowledge like wiki-tool usage, organizing events / online campaigns, solving Wiki-related problems and much more.
Future. Wikimania is also significant to many Wikimedians as Wikimania 2023 will also be a forum to discuss implementing the Wikimedia Movement Strategy (#Wikimedia2030) and discuss other future-thinking topics.
