DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT
In what way is the project innovative and/or complementary to other projects already carried out by your organisation and/or in your country?
Wikimedia Italia works with teachers and students of all ages to access and use the full potential of Wikimedia and OpenStreetMap projects for their learning objectives. We aim to foster learning experiences in which students actively interact with the information they are consuming on projects—transitioning from passive information consumers to proactive knowledge creators. In this field, the project is complementary to the activities the association already carries out with some Italian universities (Università Statale di Milano, Università di Padova) to improve the skills of art and heritage students in promoting participatory processes through Open Digital Tools. The project is also complemetary to the trainers certification process that Wikimedia Italia is carrying out, as another project that enforce our experience in the education sector.
DISSEMINATION and IMPACT and SUSTAINABILITY
To whom will you disseminate the project results inside and outside your organisation at local/regional/national/EU level (approx. number of contacts, name/type of stakeholder organisations/institutions of your network)
By creating project pages on Meta-Wiki (the global community site for the Wikimedia Foundation's projects and related projects, from coordination and documentation to planning and analysis), on other Wikimedia projects, as for example Wikipedia and Wikiversity (the Wikimedia project dedicated to learning materials and activities) and on OSF Open Science Framework (for content which is not pertinent for the Wikimedia projects), those who will have the opportunity to learn about the project, its goals and results will be a very large number of people. Infact Meta wiki is used by aproximately 2k volunteers all over the world, Wikiversity has about 5.000.000 visits by month has about more than 600 active contributors by month and Wikipedia is the site for visit in the web. In addition, Wikimedia Italia will involve the international Wikimedia communities, particularly in the related countries of the project.
Approximately how many people can you reach via your company’s website and social media?
- Facebook: 928K
- Instagram: 275K
- X: 14K
- Website: 18K visits, 23K pageviews
Any international groups that are relevant and will enhance international networking?
Wikimedia Italia is local chapter of the Wikimedia Foundation and OpenStreetMap Foundation. Wikimedia chapters are national or sub-national not-for-profit organizations created to promote the interests of Wikimedia projects locally, by members of the movement; currently there are 38 chapters, with at least one on every inhabited continent. Instead the OpenStreetMap country-level or region-level not-for-profit legal entities representing the area's OSM mappers and OSM data dealing with local government, business, and media are currently 17.
How can you ensure that the project's results will remain available and will be used by others? (important question on sustainability)
The long-term availability and sustainability of the project's results will be ensured through the use of Wikimedia projects as free and collaborative projects, whose availability, infrastructure and organizational framework are ensured by the Wikimedia Foundation, as its mission.
What are the activities and results that your organisation will maintain after the end of the EU funding, and how will you ensure the resources needed to sustain them? (important question on sustainability)
The methods and methodologies learnt will be shared with the community and possibly included in the certification process of trainers that Wikimedia Italia is carrying out. The results obtained from the project will become also case studies and will also be disseminated during national and international meetings on education and cultural heritage in which Wikimedia Italia participates annually.
SPECIFIC QUESTIONS
Specific question A, like.: What are the different target groups you are planning to engage with? Researchers? Students? Professors? Supporting staff? How do you plan to engage with each different target group?
