The Culture and Heritage team at the Wikimedia Foundation works with the movement to strengthen Wikimedia’s collaboration with libraries, museums, archives, and publishers. We’re particularly interested in addressing visual knowledge gaps and diversifying information sources.
To learn more, visit our Meta-Wiki page, or get in touch via cultureandheritage@wikimedia.org.
This page brings together our recent updates but there is so much more happening in the movement, as you’ll see when you explore the GLAM tag here on Diff.
