Grants:IdeaLab/Workshop: Social Science goes Wikipedia!
Project idea[edit]
What is the problem you're trying to solve?[edit]
There is a great lack of articles on social sciences from a female POV on Wikipedia.
What is your solution?[edit]
The Evangelische Hochschule Ludwigsburg (Protestant University of Ludwigsburg) offers a great array of social science courses and therefore has many female social sciences students. We'd like to offer a two-day workshop for those female students to learn how to participate in Wikipedia and become advisors and multiplicators within the university, students and alumni.
Goals[edit]
30 female students are supposed to become advisors and multiplicators on Wikipedia-related topics.
